Thanksgiving Weekend

I had a great Thanksgiving weekend this year.

It started with a 5K Turkey Trot with Kim and then a drive to Hood River for Dinner with my mom, brothers and Dawnell. We had a very nice meal and some fun conversation...and some of us snuck a Turkeyday nap!


Friday morning we got up at 4:15 and headed to The Dalles' Fred Meyer for 1/2 price socks!!! I missed it last year but made up for it this year! I had spent $200 by 7:00am and was home by 9:30 and did not leave my apartment complex the whole rest of the day.

Saturday was the big Jeske Family Christmas exchange (hoping for family to send me pictures)and my BBCC Alumni Basketball game. Dinner was great and I came home with a pretty white serving set. I loved seeing my family. A few were not able to make it, but we thought about them!! I left early to head to my basketball game in Moses Lake. I was really worried since I had not shot a ball since the previous year's game and had not been running much. It went well and we almost won. It was the best Alumni game I have played in so far!

Sunday marked the first Aldersgate (alternative service) Church service at the church. I think it went well but hope we can get additional help in the coffee house so I can see everything as a spectator. Sunday evening I decided to put up my Christmas tree. It was not the same doing it by myself but I got it all done, vacuumed all the fake pine needles that fell off, and sat back and enjoyed the view!! Christmas Season is in full swing and I hope we all remember the Reason for the Season!! Merry Christmas!

Your tree looks amazing. Hope that open house goes well. Wish we lived closer!
