Weekend Wrap Up :)

{This post contains LOTS of pictures}

We had a great weekend! Wow, God is so good and we are so blessed! Friday night we were able to stay home at the apartment, which was nice since we usually have done grocery shopping every Friday night. I felt like I was coming down with a cold, so it was great to put jingle jammies on and watch a movie-Miracle on 34th Street in the original black and white. We also made our own pizza and some peanut butter balls...delicious!

Saturday we had some errands to run around town; a stop at the post office and the library and then we were headed to Fort Wayne to get the car washed and the tires balanced and rotated before our long trip to Florida. I was SO excited about finally getting the car washed...snow and dirty streets make vehicles so very dirty and I am a neat freak. I like for my car to be relatively clean. Especially before a thousand mile road trip! Even though it was 9 degrees outside, it was sunny so I took that opportunity to get the car washed. I am thankful that there are places to get your car washed here, but I miss the car washes in Florida. 1. They were WAY cheaper. 2. They give you towels to dry any places that the blow dryers missed. 3. The vacuums are free and you can use them for as long as you want! Anyways...after that we were headed to Discount Tire. After the tire place we got some lunch at Chic-Fil-A...YUM. We did some shopping at the mall and ran into a HUGE Christmas tree at the center of the outdoor mall; of course we took pictures:

After that adventure we headed home for our own Christmas. Since we are going to be in Florida with my family for Christmas we decided to give each other gifts early and Saturday was the day! We took way too many tons of pictures and had a great time together in our home :) Here is the photo montage:

* We got this ornatment from Hobby Lobby and I LOVE it!

"Are you sure this is for me?"

"Oh, this one is for me!"

My husband seriously impressed me with his wrapping skills!

He even curled!

The Mr. wrapped this...good job, huh?

Seriously excited about Scene It "Friends"!!!!

Now our pictures started getting a little crazy...hey, we like to have fun!

Sunday church services were combined for the Children's Christmas play which was super cute. 2 of our nieces were in the play. Emma was a cow and Ainsley was a mouse. They were so cute in costume and did a great job! After church Stephen took me to my first Chinese Buffet ever and let me just say...it was not my thing. I had never been to one probably because they are not that popular in Florida and are often shut down for health code violations...but we gave it a try...I would be okay if we never went back there!

All in all it was a great weekend and I am so thankful for all of our blessings from the Lord and for the time spent with my husband. We are looking forward to a busy week this week and then Florida on Thursday/Friday! :)
