Just fun stuff!

I have been pretty busy lately but it's been fun stuff. Last week I got to have a micro peel done on my face which was interesting. I had never had one before. It's basically a deep cleaning of your skin and pores. It's a little uncomfortable but somehow it still felt pampering. I got to go somewhere by myself and do something for myself. That same day Don and I got to spend the whole afternoon together. His mom came over and we went out to lunch and Christmas shopping!! It seemed like forever since we had a date. I got to end the date going out to dinner with my girlfriend and that was GREAT! We went out to the Green Mill and had pasta and margaritas! YUM! AND of course we had a few hours of girl talk and lots of laughing!!! Thursday night I got out AGAIN by MYSELF and went to my MOPS Christmas party. That was also full of girl talk, naughty treats and lots of laughing. Pretty good week so far right? Well then the weekend was fun as well. I don't remember what we did Friday night but Saturday we got up and went to the Macy's exhibit downtown. I really enjoy things that are creative. It wasn't my favorite story, It was the Day in the Life of an Elf. However, it was pretty and Brody was enthralled.  You could see his eyes light up and he was just in awe of it all. It was really cute. That night was more fun for me because we finally went and did something that I have been wanting to do since I lived in Rochester. Our Mentors that live upstairs knew where a Live Nativity was located. I tried to find one last year but didn't locate one in the citites. THey knew where it was and it was probably less then a mile from where we live. So they came with us and we all piled into the SUV and went through the live Nativity. It was really beautiful. We all took turns reading the signs and reliving the birth of Christ. I am excited to know that we will be around this area for a little while so that we will get to do this again for a couple of more years. 

It was a great week and weekend! I am so excited to celebrate Christ's birth with Brody. I know that he still young but I am starting to see that sweet sparkle in his baby eyes as he starts to discover that there is something extra special about this season!!
