My weekend was pretty great! I love the weekend before Christmas!
{ f r i d a y }
Friday at work we had the white elephant party that I complained about on my five for Friday, I actually lucked out and got a $25 gift card to Starbucks {which is awesome, because I was going to buy one for my sister, so that was covered} and a couple bath soaps and shampoos for kids {which were re-wrapped for Austin's little cousin. I went home and set up my sisters stocking (:
This picture is missing the Starbucks mug that I bought her on Saturday and stuck in the stocking as well. I love doing stockings and who better to spoil than my sister!? I know, the cookies are kind of weird but let me tell you... They are snickerdoodle, so awesomely yummy, and each cookie is like a pound & very soft!
Friday night we went to Austin's parents house for dinner and he played Xbox for a while, but that was pretty much it.

I was waiting for this day all week. It was a busy Saturday for us.We woke up pretty early and went to Austins bank to finally add me to his account. Then we went to my {old} bank to close that account and withdraw all the money. Then we went to FedEx so I could ship my grandma and grandpa's Christmas gifts, but the line was out the door & there was only one guy working. I know.. not much sense. So we ended up leaving because I had no time to wait. I dropped hubby off back at home and went to my moms house, so we could finish up our shopping!
We went to Town Square, Meadows Mall, and Wal-Mart, and this took up the whole day. I can finally say that all my Christmas shopping is done! Yayyyy. Now I feel relieved. So when I got home I headed straight for the extra bedroom and wrapped all of Austin's presents before he could see. I also got this new pretty wrapping paper.(:
I got all presents wrapped and ready for Christmas. I love how my tree looks now(: It's fun knowing that I did all this for my family!
My mom got the two smallest presents! But you know what they say, sometimes the best gifts come in small packages! Coach gift card and a bottle of her favorite perfume(:

We finally got my grandparents presents shipped out overnight! Then we went to Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch with one of Austins old friends and his daughter. Then we went on a little dog hunt around our house. I mentioned in my last post that we are looking for a puppy, well we saw some adoption signs up around the shopping center near our apartment and thought we would take a look. But by the time we got there all the puppies had been taken. I cleaned the house up and wrapped up the last of the presents then we went to Austins dads house to take little cousin Emma her presents!
Austins Aunt, Uncle and Cousin live in San Diego, but they came in Saturday but are leaving Tuesday afternoon and we didn't know when we would be able to see Emma open her gifts! She is three, so she had fun with them for a few minutes {more interested in ripping off the paper} and then forgot all about it! I guess earlier that day she threw a fit because she wasn't allowed to open the gifts underneath her Aunts tree!HA!
I actually had a good weekend. Shopping with my mom and sister was fun and I am glad that I finally got all my shopping done!(:
