AND tomorrow is one of my favorite sales of the year – every January 1st, Dillard’s takes an extra 50% off all clearance! It is in all stores and online, people go crazy over this sale, I am always there at 9 a.m. when they open (check your store,) but you can get great deals on: shoes & boots, boys name brand sportswear (nike & underarmour), christmas decor, sunglasses, watches & jewelry, luggage, clothing, pjs & bras, name brand purses, blankets, bedding and throws. It will be crowded and not for the faint of heart, but some great deals to be had. When we lived in Texas and I had my little Landon on Dec 29, I had been home 1 day but I decided I was not going to miss this sale, so I gave myself one hour to go check it out. I woke up late and pulled on my stretchy pants and sped over there, I walked in and it was so crowded I could barely move, there were police officers in the purse dept and my postpartum self just started crying and walked back out. I couldn’t handle it that day -- it’s not for the faint of heart! And other times in Montana we had the store to ourselves for the first couple of hours, it just depends on your area. Have fun!!

Hello there! Here are some more pics of some Christmas cheer around here.
