getting ready for bfs

this is your chance. if you are one of those people who would "never get out to go shopping on black friday", you see what it's like this weekend.

i will be taking pictures of my adventure. i currently have 7, possibly 8 on my team. they are all up to date on the etiquette. here is a list of the current members:

me
my sister, m. - she's very good at logistics and doesn't flustered easily.
my sister, g. - she pretty good at finding a deal and she very quick for such a little gal.
my sister-in-law, c - now she's the nice, sweet one. she loves to go a long for the ride. i need her to keep me in check - she's the one that will not let me get too out of control by just laughing at me when i get ridiculous. that's my gauge.
my sister, j - okay honestly she says she wants to go with us but i've never seen her actually purchase anything. and somehow she manages to look cute even at 6 or 7 a.m. (whatever time she arrives). she doesn't usually get out as early at the rest of us.
my cousin, j - she's a deal finder too. she's a lot like me. she's new to my team this year, but i am sure she will be a great asset. also she brings along the a bonus, the next team member.
my cousin, j. -this is j's husband. he is our runner this year. last year we had a semi-runner in my mom's husband, papa b. this year, j, will be our official runner.
papa b - our last member. he doesn't usually get out with us at 5 a.m. but has shown he's willing and able to do that if all my other teams members bailed on me.

that is our team. there's plenty of walkie talkies between the 8 us for each member to have one. this is a bigger team than i've ever gone with before. with a large team, it could get a little hectic, but i am preparing myself for this.

and guess what....

i am making t-shirts. everyone will have a t-shirt (i've told them they don't have to wear them), but they will be available. they will have their codenames on the back of the shirt. i decided to do this because the t-shirt were on sale 2/$5 at michaels. couldn't resist.

so be looking out for the post this weekend to find out about all the craziness. it should be fun.
