Hooray for the Snow!

The weather is welcoming me home properly!! We are getting pounded with snow, or are supposed to! The new update I heard is for upwards of 8 inches! Yay!

We had a lot of fun with the family this last week. I got there Wednesday and Mom and I worked at grandmas for about 4 hours and then went to Dave and Elaine's to enjoy spaghetti and Hayley and Hannah! My 2 new favorite people in the whole wide world!! We went to bed and got going on Thursday back over to grandmas for more packing. Then we took grandma shoe shopping! She got some shoes that were good for her feet but not her "normal" size. So in the end i think they are returning them because she has never worn and * double wide in her life, always a 7 double wide! Then we went to Dave and Elaine's so my mom could make Chicken Pot Pie! YUM! And I got to enjoy Hayley and Hannah again! I should mention that I enjoyed Sara too!

Friday we decided to skip the packing and go down town and go shopping! We went to the Kitchen window so Mom could snoop and went to Pensky's Spices and bought some cool stuff there! Then we went to Salasarita's for lunch! YUM! After that Mom and Elaine dropped me off at Lane Bryant so I could exchange some Jeans and then we went to World Market. We all found a few things we just couldn't live without! Later Sara and Tim took me out on a date so we could get away from the old people! We went and saw Fools Gold! I'm buying it! Such a cute movie! After that we went back to Dave and Elaine's and Mikey was waiting there for me! I was so happy to see him! We relaxed for the rest of the evening and went to bed because we had to get up early to help Grandma move!

Saturday Morning we didn't get going as early as planned but when we did we really got going! When we got to grandmas I think we just attacked her apartment! We worked for a little over and hour and it was lunch time, so Mike and I went to get lunch and met Sara and the girls at McDonald's! It was fun to eat with them! When we got back with lunch most of the apartment was all packed up in the vans and trailers, besides the big furniture! It was sure nice to be a girl because the boys did the heavy lifting and the girls did the un-packing! It was great! When the boys went back to get the rest of the furniture Sara and I took grandma on a tour of the place and introduced her to her neighbor across the "street"! After the long day of packing and unpacking, we all went out to dinner at Red Robin and had awesome burgers and steak fries! After dinner we were all tired but grandma needed groceries so Elaine and Sara took her to the store and we all headed home to sit back and relax.

Sunday was the day we were headin' home, but because we were so tired on Saturday we didn't say goodbye to anyone! So we made a trip over to grandmas before we left town and helped unpack and fill her curio cabinet. That was fun! Then we said our goodbyes and headed out the door! On our way home we stopped at Ikea and got some lights for our bedroom and other stuff we really don't need! Oh we did get some knew glasses because almost all of our other ones got broken when we lived in the duplex...stupid metal sink...
After we left Ikea we went to Mystic Lake Casino. That's were we always used to go before we were 21 so according to Mike we were "reminiscing". But got lucky and won most of the money I spent on the trip back! So that was exciting! By the time we left there we were hungry so we went to Cracker Barrel! Yum! Finally after dinner we headed for home, didn't' get there until 9:30 or so.

I think All in All I had an awesome time and can't wait to go back! Love you all!! Thanks again!!!
