  This week was pretty good. I mailed Peter his little stockings and he got them this week.  I did lots of sewing and got Wendy’s order all done! I’m excited about that.  We went grocery shopping for thanksgiving and I couldn’t wait to make the pie (it’s better the longer it’s in the fridge) I made it Sunday night.  Saturday I went Christmas decor shopping with my friend, Liz. She got all her tree ornaments and she put together her tree on Sunday. I got some ornaments, an advent calendar and a little sleigh. I made some ornaments on Sunday. We can’t wait to decorate for Christmas! Hope you all had a good week. It was fun visiting on Sunday with the Christensen’s.  Love you!

 This week was good. I was able to mail mom's stockings on Monday then start on Peter's. I finished his by the end of the week, so that was good. They turned out so cute and tiny! My coworker, Liz, told me about this overstock store that has all these Christmas trees and how she got a $150 one for $30 and I was like..heck yeah! I am totally going to check it out. Paul humored me and we went together on Thursday. It was kind of gross and disorganized and there weren't a lot of personnel around but we did find a tree that was originally $260 and we got it for $50! It was totally unopened and I love it! Paul found it too, I'm so glad he was willing to come with me. The weekend I sewed a ton and got started on Wendy's order and made some Thanksgiving napkins. Paul worked hard in lab and got to start his own project! It is very exciting and he is learning a lot. We love you all!

  This week was good. Saturday I went to Hannah Roberts' baby shower, virtually. It was really fun!  Then I finished sewing the stockings for the Christensen's.  Sunday we went on a pretty fall walk and had a zoom call with the Christensen's. Paul is enjoying his new lab and getting to know more people. Happy Birthday to Rachel and Hannah this week!

  This week we got a lot done. Monday morning we got our cars registered in Texas (finally!)  Tuesday, Amelia facetimed me. It was nice to catch up! I miss having conversations with my siblings regularly.  Wednesday we watched Sam and Emily's band performance. They did a great job!  Thursday we went out to dinner for Paul's birthday. It was pretty relaxed. Thank you for sending your cards and gifts for him. We really appreciate it! Friday, I dressed up for work as a scarecrow and Liz dressed up as Dolly Parton. Paul had a barbecue with his lab on Friday because his mentor is going on a two week leave with the army. He had a lot of fun getting to know more people. He got home later, so I went to vote after work while he was gone.  Saturday I got the first 4 stockings sent out! They turned out great, which I am really happy about. We celebrated Halloween with pizza and a scary movie. It was a good week! We hope you all had a fun week too :) Love you!
