Friday's Top Five: Black Friday

Unless I’m going to the grocery store or book store, I don’t like shopping.

The idea of Black Friday is a nightmare for me – losing sleep, battling crowds, packed parking lots, insanely crabby people, spending money – all for shopping. Ugh. No thank you. 

Do others feel this way? I asked our students what their plans were for this big post-Thanksgiving event. Not everyone shares my feelings. Here are their Top Five responses:

1.       Shopping!!

2.       Going to Kenosha for the Christmas Tree Lighting

3.       Sleeping

4.       Visiting with family

5.       Spending time with people who didn’t get to go home for Thanksgiving

Some of the students also mentioned traveling around with friends, working, listening to their iPods all day, playing video games, and having another Thanksgiving dinner with extended family.

Whatever your plans, may this “official” start of the Christmas season bring joy as you prepare to celebrate our Savior’s birth.
