HOME

We made it home from TEXAS on Monday evening.  We had a wonderful time but were glad to be home.  This week at work has been crazy but I can't complain after having 7 days off.  I will do a post with pictures this weekend with all of our trips details.  We have LOTS NOTHING planned for this weekend so I won't have an excuse for not blogging.  I have most of my Christmas decor put up so I have to finish that this weekend. 

Last Post.................

My last post was about the amount of snow we had at the time.  But that is nothing compared to the amount we have now.  We survived one of the worst snow storms that has hit Minnesota in the last 5 years.  It was awful.  Needless to say Husband was convinced we had to go to Estate sales early Saturday morning.  So we went and the roads and snow were awful.  After going a mile our windshield wipers would be solid ice and not work anymore.  Husband said a FEW bad words.  I was scared to death.  We then had breakfast since we were already out and picked up a sandwich for dinner since we had originally planned to go out and knew that was not going to happen.  Well that turned out to be an AWFUL idea.   We got sandwiches from Jimmy John's and ended up getting food poisoning.  So needless to say all day Sunday we slept and laid around.  We have never been sick together and it was not fun.  Not the kind of Bonding I was looking for!!!!!!   We did survive and back to normal.

We leave later this week for Christmas.  We have A LOT to do before it can happen though.  Tonight we have to finish packing, tomorrow work party and Thursday JL party.  I am glad we are busy though it will make the time go by faster!!!  I can't wait to see all of our AMAZING friends and family. 

SNOW, snow and more SNOW

This is very similar to what it looks like here.  Yesterday it started snowing and snowed about 5-6 inches.  And it just started snowing again.  I am not sure I am prepared for this.  It sure does get you in the Christmas spirit though.  Earlier today you could hear Christmas tunes coming from our basement.  Husband LOVES Christmas music.  He will [robably kill me for sharing that with everyone but that is the truth.  We are getting out of the house for the first time in a minute to go to Home Depot, a Hobby store(for husband) and to the grocery store.

13 more days and were OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
