Black Friday

I'm not sure exactly what it is that draws me to Wal-mart at 4:30 in the morning the day after Thanksgiving, but whatever it is it's working. Not only that but it has worked every Black Friday for the last 6 or so years. Now you may think that I am insane for doing this, and I would have to agree with you, but still I go back. I was completely finished with my Christmas shopping by 8:00 am. It was awesome. When we got to Walmart they had the doors open and we thought, oh sweet, we can just get our shiz and leave. But no. No one is allowed to touch their item until 5:00 sharp, so instead everyone just hovers next to the item they want and wait until someone comes over the intercom to let us know we can start grabbing. It. Was. Awesome. :D. I got everything I went for and it was a blast. For anyone who has never ventured out to experience this, I recommend that you try it at least once. So now it is on to decorating my house! I hope you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving and good luck with Christmas!! Happy Holidays!!!

Some Happy Halloween Pics

Sorry this is pretty late. Things have been kinda crazy around the Richins household! Anyway, on Halloween my sisters Jo and Ruth and then two of my friends Heather and Lindsay and I went out to lunch at Applebees to get the day started. (Technically Ruth didn't make it to lunch and met us there at the end...). Then Ruth and I went over to Trick-or-Treat street in Idaho Falls. I'm not too sure how I feel about it and don't know if I will go back next year. It took us a little over an hour and a half to get through and they mostly got taffy and tootsie rolls. Oh well. So Carson went as a lion, Taylie-Ruth's little lamb, went as a 50's girl and Keilah-Jo's baby, went as a nun. Jo and I colaberated on her costume and I think it turned out great.

Here's Ruth being a champ. She is going in to have her baby on the 18th of this month and made it through this entire thing!
