Short and Sweeet

It was a good weekend.

Just John and I doing fun things and enjoying each other after the busyness of the last weekend.

On Friday, we did our shopping and had Arby's for dinner.

On Saturday we left for some shopping in Milwauikee.

We found some great things at St. Vinney's and then hit the Dollar Store, Menard's, Target, another Dollar Store, Michael's, Hobby Lobby, and the teacher store.

It was great fun checking things off my list.

We went to a 4:3o movie,  Murder on the Orient Express which was an all right movie.

After the movie, we went to Midpoint Sports Bar to watch the Badgers lose to the Buckeyes.

We did have some great food and beers.

We had a friendly wager going with the Kovach's so that was fun to text back and forth.  Not so much fun when we lost though.

On Sunday, the Packers won their game finally and I baked no names, 7 layer bars, and cut outs.

Ate way too many mistakes.

John and I went to check out the Christmas train which was going through Watertown.

We watched it on Concord Ave. It zoomed by and if we had blinked we would have missed it for sure.  You would think it could have slowed down a bit!

At any rate, a very good weekend.

Here are a few other things I want to remember:

• Our Pastor Carter has resigned because his wife cheated on him and left him.  It's sad for St. John's because he has done so much for us.
• Dick Berner was killed when a tree fell on  him.  Mom went to the funeral and said he didn't look good.  Well, duh, a tree fell on his head!
• Tiz was in her second big cheer competition in Minneapolis this wknd.  Her team not only took first place but also won the best stunt award.  I wish I could have been there, but instead Paul's family was there.  Didn't care much for the fact that they got to share in the excitement.  I am much happier when they stay in Mn and Iowa and don't bother us.

Well that is all for now.
