After all the stress, all the late night projects getting finished the holiday was over in just a few short hours. All gifts have been handed out and opened.
I did not finish the purse for my sister in law to be...I still need to line it...so I'll be giving that to her in the next couple weeks.
My gift to Danny went over well, especially since what I got for him, he thought I was getting for Bob. I wasn't sure which Packers Plaque he would like more so I called him and told him Bob was at the doctors and I ran out to get lunch but stopped at a store to get his present and needed advice....I asked him which of the two plaques he thought Bob would like more...and then I bought it, wrapped it and watched with a satisfied smile as I saw it dawn on him that I'd duped him :) He was very happy and in turn so was I.
Bob got his AJ Hawk Jersey (Packers) which had him smiling ear to ear as did his Harley Davidson Riding Boots (no, he doesn't own a Harley motorcycle...but he has the boots)!
All of the boys were stoked about their gifts as was Cassy.
It was a really nice day. Bob cooked the meat and I did the rest of the dinner. It turned out really well (Prime Rib, garlic mashed potatoes with lots of butter, sweet corn and lots of sweets for dessert).
My friend Karen stopped by yesterday (Christmas Eve). It was nice to see her, hadn't seen her since Bob's benefit and before that it had been way too long. She is one of my biking buddies so it was nice to catch up. She gave me a gift certificate to the bike shop . Very cool gift. I love spending money at the bike shop, I love spending someone else's money even more :)
Well, I better run....going to relax, drink some coffee, and enjoy a little t.v.
Hoping tomorrow morning has clear roads so I can go for a little run before everyone wakes up!
A blog about my exploits on my bike, my adventures with my camera, my life of rock and roll concerts, my 4 kids, and just about any other topic I think worth talking about.
