This has been a good weekend so far. Yesterday I woke up extra early for a day off (6am) and was out of the house by 7am to go do my Christmas shopping for Jess. After a stop at the bank, filling up my car, and making a quick stop, I was at the mall by 7:40am. I was out of the mall, arms full of bags, by 9am. Two more stops, and I was done with all of my shopping by 9:45am. I even managed to pick up Jackson a new bear hat and a Christmas sleeper!

After I got home, Jess was just getting out of the shower. I played with Jackson for an hour or so and we were off to do some group shopping. After picking up some meds at our vet, we were off to Sam’s Club. ONce we survived the madness that is Sam’s Club on a Saturday morning, we decided it was time for lunch. Where should one go around noon on a Saturday for lunch? The same place one should go everyday for lunch of course — Abe’s hot dogs!

Jackson was a bit fussy during lunch, which we took as hunger. Unfortunately, when we tried to fed him, he pushed the bottle away and spit out the formula. As it turns out, he just wanted to sit there and stare at the bottle. Weird, but then again, he is my son!

After lunch, we needed to head across the river to Kingston. While there, the snow storm we were waiting for finally arrived. It was nice sitting there in the car while Jess was shipping some stuff out at the UPS store watching the snow fall. Once she was done there, I headed to the state store and picked up some alcohol for Saturday night. Since it looked like it was going to snow all night, why not stay in where it was safe and warm and have a few drinks.

After all of that, we headed to my parent’s house for a few hours. Jess needed to pick up a package there, we needed to drop off cookies, and as a bonus, my dad was baking his Christmas poppy seed bread. They were even nice enough to feed us dinner while we were there. Bonus!

Once we left my parent’s house, we headed to the grocery store and stocked up on everything we don’t buy at Sam’s Club. Once we got our order (and saving over $27 with our Gold Card!!) we finally came home and put everything away. Once settled in, we put Jackson down, had a few drinks, and played Mario Kart Wii. What a great day!

Today we all slept in and are relaxing around the house. We ended up only getting about 2 inches of snow last night, so at least that was easy to clear this morning. Right now, I am doing some house work. Well, technically I’m writing this post, bu you know what I mean. Later on we’re bringing down all of the presents from the attic and wrapping them up.

So in summary, I had a weekend full of snow, fun, and family. What else could you ask for?
