Great weekend and SNOW!

So I’m a little late updating about our weekend.  New students for spring semester moved in on Monday and my life has been pretty consumed with that.  However…they’re all moved in now…and spring semester officially started up today!  

 

So back to the weekend…and it was great!  Friday night we drove up to Emden to stay over at my parent’s house.  On the way we made a pit stop at Cracker Barrel for some breakfast for dinner.  I got my favorite breakfast treat….Eggs in a Basket.  (Sourdough bread…grilled…a hole cut in the middle…and fill with fried egg…served with hashbrown casserole and bacon.)  It was so yummy…and just what we needed!  We stayed up late hanging out with my mom and got up early to help dad load some new songs on to his Ipod.  Saturday we headed into Bloomington, grabbed a quick bite at DQ, and I dropped Jared off to hang out with his brother before I headed over to my good friend Amy’s baby shower.  The shower was great and I totally ruled at the shower games!  (I won 2 out of 3.)  After the shower we headed up to El Paso to spend the night at my brother’s house.  We had so much fun catching with Geof and Lauri and playing with our niece, Aubrey.  Aubrey seemed to think that Aunt “Gingy” was pretty cool…which definitely made me smile…a lot!  Jared got to play a lot of Guitar Hero with Geof…and Lauri and I just chatted.  Sunday we headed back to Bloomington and met up with my parents for lunch and I shopped for a bit with my mom.  Before we left town we stopped at Meatheads…a new burger joint….because we had heard that is was mighty yummy.  We were not disappointed!  Best burger I’ve had in quite a while.  So if you love burgers…and are in Bloomington….stop by and try it out.  They also have fresh cut french fries with ultra-yummy dipping sauces.  (This only helped with the yumminess of the whole experience!)  We got home early so that I could finish up my homework (oh joy) and have some time to relax.  Once again…a great weekend that made me want to move back “home”.  

 

Now…the snow!  It started snowing at some point on Sunday…stopped for a bit…and then started up again last night.  Now we have like 6 inches of beautiful…sparkly snow on the ground!  It’s so pretty!  Granted…I don’t want to be outside running around in it…but it’s so nice to look at.  Maybe if it compacts a little bit…we’ll be able to make a snowman or something.  We shall see!
