WR: Holiday Treats + Vikings Game

Friday, I went to bed early with a wicked headache.

Saturday morning, Adam got up bright and early to go fishing with a friend. He said it was really slow, but he enjoyed getting out on the ice for the first time this season.

Chester and I enjoyed sleeping in, and then spent the morning doing some housework. Chester got sick of following me around, and decided to take a nap on the couch.

He also found a sun spot to lounge in

with his elephant

Adam got home just as I was heading out to pick up my sister. It was perfect timing as Chester wouldn't have to be home alone (he hates it!).

Christine and I picked up a few things at Target, and then came home to make some holiday treats. We had homemade Mac & Cheese for lunch, and then got going on baking. 

We made cake balls, pecan praline fudge, wreath cookies, and dipped pretzels. It was a lot of fun.

I took her back to school at 5 so she could study for finals this week, and then picked up Adam to do our Christmas shopping. We're mostly done now which is a big relief!

On Sunday we went to the Vikings game. They won. I was mad. By winning a meaningless game, we dropped from #4 in the draft (projected to pick the best QB available in the draft) to #8 (and falling if we win more).

$#*@#! So frustrating. I was especially pissed at all the idiots around us cheering excitedly for us to win. DO YOU PEOPLE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT FOOTBALL!?!

There was a cool half time presentation where they introduced the All Mall of American Field (Metrodome) Team. There were a lot of former players there, even though we were snubbed by Moss and Carter.

It was our last time at the Metrodome, which made me happy. Can't wait for the new stadium! Especially after standing outside in 0° for 20 minutes in the security line to get in. Ridiculous!

The rest of the afternoon we relaxed at home with Chester.
