Pre-Christmas Weekend

This weekend went really fast. I feel like I am on holidays already, but really I have to go to work for two more days before I get a nice stretch of 5 DAYS OFF! On Saturday, Terri and I pooled our resources, got together, and make our gingerbread contributions to the Cyca's annual gingerbread party. This year, the theme was the Nightmare Before Christmas, which I though was fairly genius. Not only is this one of my favorite Christmas movies, it's only one of my favorite Halloween movies! Terri's piece was a gate (to the graveyard, I think), and mine was the major's car. Another highlight from Saturday was the arrival of my favorite kitty. He is fast asleep on my lap right now, which means that my typing is anything but fast. Sunday was an early start (okay, not that early - out the door at 8:30, but early for a Sunday). I headed up to Blackfalds with my family to see our friends. Actually, they seem a lot more like family than friends (my parents went to high school with Leigh and Neil). After getting back to town, I needed some exercise, so I went to indoor. Unfortunately, I got back into town later than I thought, and well....the mayor is going to have to walk. The car remains in my kitchen in bits, and I need to send the Cyca's an apology email tomorrow. There was even a celebrity sighting at the party - Beaty in town from Nordegg. So if anyone would like to eat a piece of car made from construction grade gingerbread, please let me know. I hope you had a fun weekend too, and that you safely get to wherever you are off to for the holidays.

ps. weekend lowlight - Kristin lost her phone in a snowbank.
