Thanksgiving

I had a nice weekend. Although I had hoped to go home to Michigan, things worked out well. I stayed with Grandma and Grandpa. It was just the three of us on Thursday, which I really enjoyed. She cooked the meal (of course, it was wonderful) and I decorated her house for Christmas.

Friday we all hung out at my uncle’s house and played games.

On Saturday, I spent some time with my cousin, Matthew (the one who shot his foot). We watched dumb movies and played cards and just had a random fun time.

Saturday night I put my Christmas tree up. It’s so cute. It’s 4 and ½ feet tall and has about 5 ornaments on it! (Yeah…I like mine sentimental—hence a shortage of tree trimmings). I made it look better by adding ribbon and candy canes.

I did all my Christmas shopping for my family in just one hour yesterday! (Beat that!)

I am now fighting a major sore throat, headache and earache. Ironically, Sarah decided to give me a Christmas present early-I found a bag of really good tea on my coffee table this morning. What a practical and timely gift!
