Weekend Relaxation

This is the second weekend we have gotten to hang out together and relax a little. Friday night we had date night. Went to a new restaurant, got dessert, and watched a movie at home. Saturday was filled with errand running. Got a few more Christmas gifts, had lunch out, went to the library, then came home and relaxed. Might I just say that the public library here is amazing!

Sunday we had to get up and rush to clean up all the leaves because a potential buyer came to look at the house. But Sunday afternoon we got to watch football, workout and bake about a weeks worth of food. Homemade pizzas, burritos, and a couple apple pies.

You also might be interested to know that Chris and I have successfully kicked our caffeine habit. We are both down to 1 soda per day only. It took a couple days of headache's, but it worked.

For those of you who haven't seen Chris in his graduation gear... here is one with his original TMBA team.  Peter Lee is right next to Chris to the left.  A great friend.

Cookie Decorating

Chris and I had a great weekend. One of the first in a long time that we felt somewhat normal. No place to go... So we had fun just spending time together. Date night on Friday night complete with take out Chinese. On Saturday: Lots of lawn mowing (or should I saw leaf mowing). A little haircut & color & highlight for Kim. And Sunday: Some football for Chris. Some exercise and yoga for Kim. Then cookie decorating (Chris is good). And then a final wrap up with a dinner of Osso Buco (lamb shanks). I could definitely use more weekends like this!

Beautiful Fall Weekend

Saturday we drove to see the leaves changes in Madison, IN (near the IN, KY border) along the river.  Madison was beautiful  The area looked more like Tennessee.  The city was having a soup festival.  Too bad we weren't hungary.  



Friday night we attended an anniversary party planned by Kim to honor those in her work group that were celebrating milestone anniversaries (20, 25, 30, 35 years of service with the company).  We started with drinks and appetizers.  Then moved on to a nice sit down dinner and desert, complete with a funny presentation on each person being honored.  After dinner was drinks, darts, pool, etc.  Chris schooled a few people in darts.  Then everyone got to stay the night at the company "farm" (more like a hotel really).

Christmas Early

Yippee! Chris ordered an iMac for us today. I can finally edit my Greece & Turkey pictures and download music.

Weather is beautiful in Indiana today. Mid 70's and very sunny. I cleaned garden pots and planted fall flowers. The house looks ready for a Thanksgiving celebration now.

Weekend of Separation

Chris is still in Las Vegas and Kim is in Indianapolis. These weekends stink... But the house is still in one piece so I can't complain too much. Weather in Indy is great. Its been a long week of work for both of us. Chris in class and me trying to keep up with my work load. Glad its the weekend. I got Christmas Cards on the table, my laptop out to do a bunch of work, and the lawn mower ready to go. (I haven't mowed the lawn in 2 weeks, ugh!). May do a little Christmas shopping. Hope all is well for all of you.
