Happy Friday!
Re: Happy Friday!
Tonight: went to my work holiday party, made cookies for my brother's birthday celebration tomorrow, picked up a pizza, and decorated our tree. I think it was a productive evening!
Tomorrow: lesson plans during the day and celebrating my brother's birthday and Hanukkah tomorrow night.
Sunday: typical stuff like laundry, food shopping, cleaning. I want to do a big clean job to make it easier to straighten up before we have family over for Christmas Eve next Saturday.
Tonight: made pizza (thank you Trader Joe's ready to bake dough), watched house hunter international, now watching bones & searching for last minute gifts.
Tomorrow: going to use a groupon to buy some fabric for curtains or a valance for our living room (finally, after being here a year!). Then we are going to a friend's housewarming party & then to one of our groomsmen's houses for dinner with other friends (actually raclette and I am really looking forward to it!)
Sunday: Church, prob. some shopping, then a work Christmas party.
Tonight: Addressed Christmas cards, also watched House Hunters International, and relaxed on the couch with DH and my mom and baby
Tomorrow: My sister is coming to visit with her 3 kids
Sunday: 4 of our close friends are coming to visit and see the baby and bringing lasagna, salad, and dessert-yum!! I swear having a baby means you will eat good for weeks everybody brings you food when they come!!!!
Friday night: Did some more christmas shopping (a few things)
Today/Saturday: Cleaning like crazy, laundry, going to a Christmas craft fair in town (exicted for this!!!)
Sunday: Finishing up our christmas shopping, going to lunch with friends
Monday-Friday: CHRISTMAS COOKIES!!! (i make tons as I give them to all of our extended family as gifts so its going to take me all week!). No work until the 26th. yay!

I am a gluten-free, gun-toting wife! :P
I love you, Daddy...2/24/1953 to 2/13/2011
Friday: work, grocery shopping, lounging at the house
Saturday: shopping, last minute post office run, laundry, and making goodies for gifts for coworkers
Sunday: I'll probably do some additions to lesson plans I need to do in order to start my 2 unit practicums beginning in January. Can't wait to be done with my master's program!
Last night: caught up on a past season of One Tree Hill and sewed.
Today: Taught ccd, ran to Kohls with H, about to go to lunch in Chicago with in laws and then shop for our new ornament.
Sunday: nothing planned! The semester for grad school and for subbing are both over so I have no reading or grading or lesson planning to do!
Last night: My co-workers went out after school for an early happy hour. Then DH and I spent the night being lazy and watched Home Alone...classic!
Today: Spent awhile writing final exams. Going to the bar in a little while to watch the University of Illinois women's volleyball team play for the national championship! (I got my masters from U of I, so it's pretty exciting!)
Tomorrow: Finishing up finals, then going to school for the madrigals performance.
Yay U of I! I'm currently taking graduate classes there through the GSLIS. I got my undergrad from ISU though.
