{fun
wrapping paper + gold box I couldn’t resist picking up for a special gift}
Since
this was a five day work week after a highly anticipated vacation, I was
totally prepared to be lethargic, unfocussed and unmotivated… and was ecstatic
to be wrong. I got back in the swing of things quicker than you can say “fading
tan”. My energetic self can be somewhat attributed to the fact that we were
able to come back just in time for my annual company Christmas party last
weekend and had a BLAST. I could not have asked for a better time with Max and
co-workers (my current team, old team, plus all 12,000 other GFS folks milling
around the Devos Center and downtown Grand Rapids
This
week, along with tackling additional projects at work (that magically popped up
while I was away) and re-training my body to endure physical activity beyond lying
on the beach (P90X/Insanity and yoga after 11 days off… woof!) I began my
Christmas shopping! I must say I am very pleased with all of the gifts in store
for my friends and family this year and am even MORE pumped that my big sis
and brother-in-law will be gracing the Midwest
with their presence this holiday season! I get to literally hug her in 2 weeks (as
opposed to air hugging across the country)!!!
This
weekend I look forward to a happy hour with Max's co-workers, a SURPRISE party for a friends 30th birthday (my first real surprise party ever at which I’m in charge of the playlist and
taco dip… naturally), then watching Christmas movies and (hopefully) completing my
Christmas shopping so I’m not running around like a mad woman next week before
my 5 day holiday break.
Here
are 5 things that made me happy this week:
{perfect
sparkly skirt – I’ve been searching forever for this bad boy and finally found
one that fit just the way I wanted, AND was on SALE
{memories
of Mexico
{SNOW!
– not so great to drive in but pretty to look at and fun to play in (once there
is real accumulation)}
