Black Friday is Banned from Our House this Year

• It feels {so nice} to sleep in...if only for one extra hour.

• It feels even better to know that I have pretty much purchased all of our Christmas gifts already and have absolutely no need for Black Friday anyways.

• Instead...the smell of a fresh Christmas tree, the sound of lovely Christmas music, and the {beautiful sights} of children laughing, lights twinkling, and...of course a family Christmas movie later on.

Last year was the first year I really got out into the Black Friday chaos and I must say that if I can avoid it at all cost for the rest of my life, I will. I do not enjoy fighting crowds and I would rather be enjoying more delicious {Thanksgiving goodness} and the company of my family.

Many of you enjoy the rush of Black Friday Shopping. What did you rush out, stand in line, and fight the crowd to get this year?
