What did I do this weekend? hmmmmmmmmm. Saturday Shawnee and Sierra went under the stairs and started pulling out Christmas decorations. I was guessing this was a hint and set up my Christmas Village and the Nativity Scene. They wanted all the lights put up and the tree. I figured I at least started. I made steak and home fries for supper and that was about it.

Sunday, while Mike was out cross-country skiing we put up the Christmas tree, yes that was an all day event. I have to wrap the lights around every little branch so it takes forever and it takes alot of lights. BUT the tree is up. Nope still didn't do the rest of the house. I doubt outside will get any lights, its freezing here -20 degrees. Too bloomin cold to go outside. I also figure theres a billion days until Christmas so not in a big rush. Next weekend I'll probably put up the rest of the indoor lights OR brave the cold and try to do something outside. Sunday made my stuffed pork chops, wild rice and carrots.

Today is cold as per usual and Mike went out to go cut firewood with our friend Lyle. He's a priest. Not sure if I mentioned him before but if I did, oh well, good refresher and if I didn't now you know.

My boss is going to be back sometime today which is good.

All my kidlets have a bit of a cough. Shawnee seems to be growing like a weed. Looked at her pants today and they were short by a good 1.5 inches. I told her to go get changed.

Thats our life,
