Deck the Halls

This was a great weekend filled with holiday spirit.

It kinda started on Thursday night attending a Christmas concert at Calvary Baptist Church with some friends.

Then I had a date on Friday (not so great, but good company nonetheless). Which is a whole other topic right there. But, we went on a trip to the Science Museum, coffee at my favorite cafe -- Ninas, and then topped it off with an Ethiopian dinner. Later than night a good friend from college came visiting from out of town.

Saturday, on a dark and snow less December night some of us seminary students decided to go caroling. We went to the homes of faculty and staff, as well as, random homes in the surrounding neighborhood. We received spirit filled thank yous, treats and even three bottles of wine! And had a little party with yummy treats and steaming hot chocolate as we tried to dethaw. The Dean of Students joined the group of caroling seminary students, and questioned where we could have possibly gotten those LBWs.

Sunday was no different. I slept in, had a good work out and then my out of town friend came back from visiting others in the Cities. We got together with some other people and had an evening of Ethiopian food (2x in one weekend! Yessss.) And wound down the day with a Holden Village service I really enjoy at Bethlehem Lutheran Church. Now I am sore from working out and tired. Joy to Mondays...
