Busy, But Fun, Days!!

Wow. What a whirlwind the past couple of days have been! I forgot to tell you that I got a speeding ticket on Thanksgiving Day. Happy Thanksgiving to me! My attitude, actually, is never bad when I get a speeding ticket, because I always know that I deserve it. I was a little puzzled, however, how I happened to win the prize this particular time. We were in 4 lanes of traffic, going through downtown Indy on I-70. I'm pretty sure every car was going 70 miles per hour, but I won the award. :-)

Yesterday (Friday) Maren and I got up fairly early, and went shopping. I, actually, have NEVER done that before on the day after Thanksgiving, but Maren was begging me to go shopping, so I decided to let her experience that thrill. We got a lot of shopping done for the Milbourn boys, and were still home by 10:30am.

For lunch Friday, we fixed a ham, and our favorite soup, "cheesy broccoli alfredo" soup. Denny's mom and his sister's family came over and ate lunch with us. After that, we put up a tree, and then went to see a movie. We saw "August Rush". I REALLY liked it. I think I liked it so much because it was a little different than normal, and yet still had a great story line.

Today, we finished decorating our house for Christmas. We put another tree up, and put lights up outside the house.

Currently, I'm getting ready to fix the family a good, healthy, dinner...(cereal). Then we're planning on sitting down, enjoying the lights, and watching Shrek the 3rd.
