Busy Weekend

We had lots happening over the weekend, and sadly, I have no pictures to show for it, so you'll have to bear with all the text.

First, obviously, it was Thanksgiving. Holidays are always busy for us as we have two households to travel to. But Chris & I are quite proud of ourselves for not over doing it and stuffing ourselves silly. But damn, holiday food is good. I made enough green bean casserole for a week of leftovers, but sadly, we have no turkey. I guess one of these years I will need to do the cooking.

Friday was my first event with The Idaho Foodbank...Empty Bowls. We had nearly 2,300bowls and over 125 gallons of soup and were wiped out! All the soup was gone by six and we only have a handful of bowls left. Needless to say, it was a great success. This was a sink or swim moment for me and I'm happy to say I swam laps! Still waiting for a final $$$ total, but it HAS to be more than last year.

I was still pretty worn out on Saturday, but it was our friend Jeremy Bordner's birthday bash and we hit the town that night. We called it a night relatively early, but had a great time...thanks, Kirstin, for organizing such a fun night! When I finally looked at my phone that night I had a text from my friend Miranda who got engaged that day...hooray! Chris & I are together because of Miranda. She's a friend from high school and I wasn't really wanting to go to our high school reunion, but she convinced me. Thank goodness! We couldn't be happier for her and Josh.

Sunday we put up Christmas lights and cleaned out the garage. I love organizing! Chris discovered there was an attic in the garage and we went nuts throwing stuff up there.

All in all, a very productive weekend for us. I'll have pictures of the house up here soon I promise!
