Long Weekend in Review and To-Do List

Happy Monday everyone!  I hope all those in the States had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend--J and I certainly did!

As I alluded to in this post, we spent the weekend with my grandparents in Peoria, IL.  Because I like lists, I am going to recap our stay in bullet point format.

We:

• Ate lots of turkey and fixings.  For a recap on our menu, click here.
• Watched lots of football.  Nebraska and more importantly, Notre Dame, won their games this weekend!
• Cooked and baked a lot, including hot breakfasts (eggs, waffles, and omelets) every morning
• Read and finished two books (okay that was just me!)
• Ate Agatucci's, the best pizza in Peoria
• Visited with my aunt, uncle and cousins
• Put up Christmas decorations with my grandparents and trimmed their tree
• Conducted research for a future blog post--that's all I can reveal for now!
• Took several naps (again that was just me!)

And to continue the bullet point theme, here is my to do list this week.  I hope I can get it all done!

This week I will:

• Make turkey soup with the bones from our Thanksgiving turkey
• Unpack
• Clean house--including floors and baseboards!
• Decorate for Christmas
• Buy/Make Christmas gifts for family and friends
• Wrap said gifts and put them under our tree
• Clear off my desk
