Only 36 Days until Christmas

Dear Weekend,

For all of these reasons, you totally rocked.

1. Had a fantastic workshop at Christy's Friday night. I got to play with two sweet kiddos as an added bonus.

2. Had the pleasure of taking a whole bunch of baby pictures for Jill on Saturday.




3. Got crafty with Abby. We have an annual night of movies and crafting every fall...It is a seasonal MUST for finishing my Christmas cards. THANKS ABBY for the giant cupcake pan!! You are such a great friend...(p.s. I need to make you a delicious cupcake and a matching card as a great big thanks...coming soon!)
4. Had a fantastic lunch with mom Sunday.
5. Took two naps.
6. Spent Sunday afternoon editing photos.



7. Saw New Moon. Jacob's abs. Wow.
8. Made hummus....(to go with some homemade pita and falafel...Abby's Ryan is a good cook!)

Okay, so I couldn't find 10 reasons why this weekend rocked, but I think 8 is plenty. :-)
