Sunday after Thanksgiving, christmas pukage

This is my aunt and uncle's house!

A section of lights out:
The mysterious ghost bush???



So, we're to the Sunday after Thanksgiving. And there have been a lot of decorations put up!!!

I drove to my brothers house today on the way to take kat to the airport. I saw something amazing...

Yes that is death of the blow up christmas decorations. Why would you want littering your yard??? oh people...

So this inspired me to do my best at hanging my own christmas lights. I wanted to do my best to make my own non-half ass lights. I marked the lights at the halfway points etc so they were evenly spread out. I think I did alright. Pretty close to even. I guess the 3rd swag is slightly short. BUT the lights are well dispersed.

It's hard to take pictures of lights. flash, no flash etc etc etc.




Supper - YES I cooked again!!! tasty. I put the pineapple in the picture, just for looks.



Pot Pie for supper. IT was sooo tasty. I have 2 more meals + in the fridge. It's good stuff.

More Random Pictures

More pictures of our neighbors...






So I ran by the New twins stadium during the turkey trot.

Black(and green and blue and red....etc) Friday!

Wow, it's Friday. and I have all sorts of info. None of it is black. BUT, it's good.

1. I went to the gym at 6:30 for a large group class. It was a ton of fun with more people :) Ok. The excitement of this ... RJ was there at 7:10. So i yelled at him from my treadmill, asking why he was there so early. He's like, i've been up since 3AM. I said "Why?". He said, "Cause I have a girlfriend!" I didn't get it at first, but yeah, he was shopping. Then after class I spoke with him, and yeah, he name dropped. Her name is Christi! (no idea how to spell that)

2. At home I got a text msg at 8:15! It as from Becky. Asking me the name of the irish pub that her kids went to before a swarm game. So i told her via text, "McGoverns". She promptly called to make sure she knew where it was. It was great to get to talk to her :)

3. ON my way to work, I saw the flashers near this sign that says "Snow being made if flashers are on"....YES Buck hill was making snow today.

4. At the end of the day, Becky called back. She thanked me for the directions and said they had a great game!

5. I went to dinner with my parents to the Farmington Steak House. NUMMY!

6. Christmas lights have sprouted EVERYWHERE here. You know that house that hadthe blow up crap at halloween? Look what they've done for Christmas.

I have still photos, and then I realized they didn't do this place justice. I took a video especially for all of you readers.

I don't do babies

So, Saturday...well, you skyped with me so you know pretty much.

We went to Rochester.

Here are the adorable pictures.

We played some Trivial Pursuit 90's edition. Then we ate really good TACO SOUP(Taco Chili kinda) A lot beans you woudn't have liked it, but it was good :)

Then we played Connect 4, battleship and cribbage. We had some apples with carmel and butterfingers. SOme of us had a whiskey night cap.

Here is the photo of the night though :) blackmail?

Sunday, I had church with the archbishop. It was nice.

Then I went out with Elissa. We drove around st. paul. I went to Trader Joe's for the first time Ever. Then I went to Half Price Books. I GOT BOOKS! I showed elissa, clearance. It was soo much fun. Yes of course, you can consider this stalking. BOTH houses.

We ate at st. Claire Broiler...This is where she had her first/only date with the CHAMP!

Nothing exciting happened.

Now I have to go to bed.

G'night
