Weekending

The weekend started off slow. Morning coffee & reading. Ree & I went to the craft store and to Panera for tea & a coffee roll. She got ready to go spend the night at my parents house. We got ready to go to my husband's work holiday party.

A fun party at a local hotel. Yummy food; nice people; okay music. A wonderful time to end my 30th year.

Sunday morning dawned sunny & warm although very windy! Coffee in bed to welcome in my 31st year. A quiet morning. 

We finally headed down to my parent's where Ree was waiting to yell "SURPRISE" and throw a present at me. Which she then proceeded to open for me! A quiet day relaxing. The evening was lots of fun with my sisters & little one's running around. Homemade pictures for my birthday; flowers; a scrumptious meal made by my mom; everyone happy & together. The perfect end to a birthday! (We won't talk about the end of the football game).

Today has been a continuation of the weekend. My husband took the day off. We were going to go off to do some things. Instead Ree & I are still in our pajamas. We all are cuddling under blankets watching the Inauguration. As the news people keep pointing out, we are so blessed to live in a country where the passing (or continuing) of power happens without any violence. 

Now we are waiting for snow that they say is coming. Ree is looking forward to it being a lot to make another snowman. We shall see!!
