We have been slowly getting ready for Christmas this week. I had to work on Monday, and get the rest of the week off, so we have had some time to do some fun things. Our first stop was to the liquor store to pick up some bourbon. We left it under the tree for Santa, and he can have as much as he wants--just as long as he saves some to baste our Christmas ham with.
Then we headed to Wheeling for a day of browsing antique shops, gambling on the nickel slots, Olgebay's Festival of Lights, and lots of wrong turns on the convoluted, crazy roads. We decided to become members of the 'preferred club' at wheeling park, and recieved free coffee mugs and WV lottery tickets. Dj ran into some luck and scratched off a dollar win; this nicely evened out the dollar we spent on the nickel slots.
Other than that, we have been making lots of cookies, enjoying our joint present of DirectTV, wrapping a few presents, and visiting with the Chapman's. Merry Christmas everyone!
