What a Week!

As I type this, Dean and Torrey are off on an adventure.  Bowling, lunch, and hoping to purchase one last Christmas gift.  

Yesterday was Dean's and my turn for an adventure.  I had received gift cards for a local spa last year.  A lot of gift cards ... do I need to remind anyone how hard last year was?  Haven't gone because I am not really a "spa girl."  Dean does love a massage, so I shared with him.  While he was getting a massage, I had a pedicure.  It was nice, but they made me wear a bathrobe and I was not in my comfort zone.  At all.  

I am loving my toes though.  Maybe the robe was worth it.  Maybe.

Monday Torrey and I went on an adventure.  Torrey has been taking private tumbling lessons, so she met with her coach EARLY.  After that we went to a movie, lunch and did a little shopping.  It was a sweet day with my girl.  Later that night Dean and I went on a date.  We went to dinner at Fleming's.  The ambiance was better than the food ... but, I am not really a steak eater.


After dinner we made a run to Restoration Hardware to pick up some snowflake ornaments.  At our Sunday School Christmas Party/Ornament Exchange, someone "stole" our friend's ornaments.  We laughed and laughed because she really wanted them.  So, we stopped by RH to pick up replacements and then zooped by her house to give them to her.  Surprised?  Oh yes.  Fun? You betcha!


And, finally, in a rewind blog ... on Sunday I finally decorated the Christmas tree in the dining room.  And, have kicked myself for not doing it sooner.  I then got a "wild hair" and started cleaning out the pantry.  And, then somehow moved on to straighten two other cabinets in the kitchen.  I think I was finished somewhere around 2 am!  But, it was worth it ... my pantry now sings "The Hallelujah Chorus" when I open the door!

And, now I am off to finish wrapping presents!
