I think the above statement would accurately describe our weekend so far. We have been running, running, and running some more. First we were out late Friday night at bible study, and Steve was home late from Lansing. Then we had a cookie baking party Saturday afternoon, Steve went to the Lake Superior State U. hockey game Saturday night, and Abby and I spent the evening with a friend. We are all wiped out from that big day!
I don't know if any of you have the same problems at your Wal-Mart, so if this doesn't sound like your average trip be glad. We have an abundance of Canadians who cross the International Bridge to shop at our Wal-Mart (even though there is one on their side of the bridge as well) and so no matter the time or day, our Wal-Mart always seems to be unusually busy. Today was no exception. I think I waited in aisle gridlock for at least 5 minutes in the dairy/soup aisle. I cannot wait until the Super Wal-Mart opens - at least then there will be more space for all these people to fit into...
Abby is still working on perfecting her crawling skills. She was getting around the McDonald's house pretty well last night before she fell asleep. She still hasn't figured out how to get the knees and hands moving together so that she doesn't end up in a faceplant, but I bet it won't take her too long to figure that part out. She's already figured a lot of new things out in the last couple days. And she only has one scrape so far, so we should still be having a photogenic Christmas.
And now for the weather update... it is the first day in about 3 weeks above freezing, but we are getting a snow/sleet/freezing rain mix, so I think I'd rather have the fridgid temperatures and snow that that yucky stuff. There was at least 2 inches of slush in the Wal-Mart parking lot. We've got about a foot of snow in most of the yard (more where it has been shoveled and piled). So if you are dreaming of a white Christmas, I know where you can find one. I'll gladly trade if you can guarantee me 75 degrees and sunny...

Can't guarantee the warm, but maybe a bit warmer than yours. I agree I love the snow and even the cold better than I do the slush and slippery. Abby work on that crawl a bit more and you can investigate Grandma's Mary's house a bit when you come down. She can't wait, and neither can Great Grandma
