We were not home long to enjoy the first measurable snowfall of the season, but It sure looked pretty on all the fields.
Robert and I had a date planned this weekend in DSM. Grandma and Grandpa came up and entertained Em and Bo, while we shopped, saw a movie, ate wings, watched the Cyclones lose, and attend what could have been my last ever company party! The party was at the Casino in Altoona, it was a tad more elegant looking affair over the last years it was held in Ames. We opted to stay over in Altoona as well to sleep in (we are officially old now, because that resembles about 7:30 - 8:00 am to me).
Big thanks to the grandparents for giving us a nice retreat, we appreciate it. I am sure pictures will come with mom's post of the weekend.
Robert and I also managed to pretty much tie up the Christmas shopping, I think we have 1 or 2 more things locally we might pick up. This is unheard of in our family to have presents bought before Thanksgiving. It sure makes me look forward to the season. Rob's hanging outdoor lights as we speak, he lucked out as it is pretty balmy outside today.
