Beth and I had a nice long chat over some yummy cappuccino (yes, I had 2...I'm telling y'all, it's delicious). I helped her pick out an outfit to wear to her Christmas party that night and then they headed on their way. Chris and I went out for lunch at Home Cafe (of course!) and then spent the rest of the afternoon shopping. I wouldn't say we were super productive...we may have taken a Barnes and Noble break halfway through, but we were able to check a certain naughty pup off our list. We found a little squeaker toy that said bad dog on one side and said coal on the other. I told you she was getting coal!
Saturday night we met up with our friends Candice and Bryan for sushi. We always have a blast with them & I'm glad we were able to get together before we are too busy with holiday stuff. Sunday we did our usual weekend cleaning, laundry, and grocery shopping. Our house has been smelling extra nice lately because of this homemade potpourri that's been simmering on the stove. It's orange slices, cranberries, cinnamon sticks, and nutmeg simmering in water. Christmas in a bowl!
Today Chris headed off to work and I had a super productive day. I completely finished my Christmas shopping! I hit the ground early with my master list in hand and got most of it done with no problems. I was able to meet Chris for lunch with just 2 things left to buy on my list. After lunch I grabbed an apple cider from Starbucks, picked up my last 2 items, and headed home to watch a Christmas movie and have a major wrapping party by myself! I knocked out quite a bit of wrapping, but I still have about half to wrap before I'm completely finished. I'm also waiting for some of my online purchases to show up in the mail (hopefully tomorrow!).
I have fun stuff planned for the rest of the week -- yay for Christmas break! It's hard to believe Christmas is a week from tomorrow!
