The girls love to sit like this and watch movies

We had a great one. We had yummy food and Great grandma and Grandpa and Aunty Kara came so we had a weekend of family down time. Me and the kids slept at my parents so I could shop early on friday with my sisters. And we did get some good deals we didn't need anything big like a tv or anything so it was easy and truthful we are kinda pro at black friday.
