gift of a snow day
I’ve been battling a nasty cold and had an opportunity to sleep in the morning with our first snow day of the year! Laundry, Target run, making dinner and then work out at the Falcon Center!

night out in St Paul
Bruce and Julie invited Katie, Isaiah, Joe and myself to a presentation at the Prenumbra Theater called the Black Nativity. Beautiful instrumental and vocal music along with lovely dancing to retell the story of Jesus birth.
After the show, we went downtown to the Pillbox Tavern and dined on burgers, pasta, a wrap and a delicious heirloom tomato salad. Now it’s way past my bedtime, but I’m enjoying listening to the kids hanging out together downstairs.

snoozing through Christmas crap movie
Osten and I started a tradition a few years ago watching cheesy Christmas movies and laughing. We started the newest Netflix Lindsey Lohan movie Our Little Secret. It was so cheesy, but my movie watching partner fell asleep pretty early in the show! We’ll try another tomorrow 💩

busy days with friends
Last night I went to dinner with friends Teri, Michelle, Katrina and Julie
at Lily Thai and then went to the high school production of Sponge Bob.
This morning it was heading to friend Maggie’s to go shopping with Maggie, Theresa and Stephanie to an upcycled clothing shop in Minneapolis. We had lunch at the American Swedish institute.
Home for a quick check in with Osten (Katie was at the gym) & off to meet Julie for the European Christmas Market at Union depot in St. Paul.
