Probably the activity that surprised me the most was Lyle's and Tanner's request to go shopping at Easton. Truly, the way this happened.... I walked in the back door from the gym and was approached by Lyle telling me that they would like to go shopping to Easton. Tanner needed to find some jeans. I am certainly game for a shopping trip! So I cleaned up, and off we went! I don't ever go shopping on Black Friday, but I'm not opposed to it. And if I'm not in a hurry, and not needing to accomplish a great deal, I am more than happy to be part of the crowds. I love to watch people, and I love the season of giving. I love to hear the music playing and see the beautiful Christmas lights! We found jeans in two stores and then promptly came home. We weren't gone long, but/and it was fun!
Sad to say that throughout the whole week my camera has sat in it's case. I only pulled it out to prove that we were part of the insanity of the shoppers. So they aren't good pictures. I was trying to sneak a little bit, to avoid total embarrassment on Tanner's part. Lyle told me he was going to delete the pictures before I could document what he called "the most 'unmanly' thing [he] has ever done."
Long Black Friday lines to purchase.
Longer lines to try on!
