Black Friday & Crafts

I realize this was a few weeks ago, but some of the pictures are just too good to pass up. First, Lacey Lani and I went to Twilight where we kind of heard the movie over the squeals of the pubescent audience members. For some weird reason that theater was way worse than the one on opening night. Then my mom and Lisa joined us to make these little countdown to Christmas advent calendars. It was really fun, and we always have a good time taking fake, ultra-cheesy candids...

This was the finished product

Then on Black Friday McCall, Megan, Sara and I braved Fashion Place mall's midnight opening. The highlight for me was when they first opened the doors and everyone sprinted in. We found some pretty sweet deals and had a blast. Megan was lucky enough to snatch one of these bad boys before they all got sold out (sorry the picture is a little blurry, and if you couldn't catch the sarcasm)

After a few hours of shopping we needed a little R&R at BrookStone where we basked in the glory of there full-body massage chairs.


And perhaps the greatest find of the night...this weird "ab work-out" machine at BrookStone that was as close to a mechanical bull as you can get. amazing.

Then me and Megan went to Best Buy at 5:00 am where I got a couple of blu-rays. I was very impressed with he way Best Buy handled all the crowds. We ended the night/morning at Target at 6:00 am. It was ridiculous. Two lines at both doors, wrapped all the way to the back of the building, and once inside, every single register was open and each had a line of at least 12 people.



We decided we didn't want anything that bad and left. People were being ridiculous, ramming into eachother with there carts, yelling about DVD's and just acting ridiculously animalistic in general. I can now fully understand the term 'mob mentality'.
