Doug has been gone since Wednesday to the PRI (Performance Racing Industry) show in Indianapolis with his friend D.W.  I've been busy myself since he's been gone.

I drove to Russellville, AL to spend the night with Karen and Morgan on Wednesday night.  We drove to Decatur to pick up our Christmas cards at Staples.  We both had bought a Groupon for 100 cards for $25...what a deal!  Unfortunately our Staples closed in Tupelo.  We decided to make a night of it and picked up our cards, had dinner at Big Bob Gibson's (which totally made the trip worthwhile!), and then did a little shopping.  Fun evening!  Karen and Morgan had to work the next day so I headed on home.  I always love spending time with them.

On Friday I made 11 batches of pecan brittle, three recipes of spicy pretzels, and six loaves of cranberry bread.  Most of that I will be giving away.

I haven't even started baking cookies yet.  I'm waiting until Emma Taylor gets out of school because she wants to bake with me.

This morning was Cameron's first basketball game.  He is playing on our church team this year instead of park and rec.  Ben is helping coach again.  Cameron is #45.

His team lost by one lousy point!  It was not for lack of trying though!

Doug just made it home.  That's always a relief!

Hope you're having a good weekend.
