Weekend Recap: Hollidazzle & Christmas Shopping

After work, Adam and I briefly hung out with Chester and then headed downtown for the Hollidazzle Parade. We met my dad at Brit's and had a drink before heading outside to watch the parade. Since Christine is a senior, this is the last parade she'll march in. Sad! Carey and Kelly were there as well along with Ahna, Sam and Lori.

When the band went by, I had a hard time finding Christine. I realized she was on the opposite side from where we were standing, so I raced up a block and a half and crossed the street to get a photo as they went by.

I had a nutella crepe from Brit's and watched the rest of the parade. We headed back home and ordered Savoy's pizza, while Dad, Mom, Carey and Kelly waited for Christine. We had a nice evening at home visiting and eating pizza.

They headed out Saturday morning. We dropped Kelly back at her dorm, and then went Christmas shopping. All day. It was exhausting, but not too bad. It was nice to get it all done with, even if it was a really long day.
I somehow developed a headache (how unusual), so spent most of that night in bed with an ice pack. I did venture out to the couch though so we could watch a movie.
On Sunday, we slept in. I of course still had a headache. For the noon Vikings game, I made nachos, which I proceeded to dump upside down on the oven door as I put them in. UGH. I rescued them though and they were fine. And the Vikings pulled off the win so it was a good day!
That evening, I wrapped a few presents, but mostly spent it trying to get rid of my ridiculous headache.
