Cornish X-mas, Races and Shopping

On Friday night, I was able to get off of work early, so I could run some errands and prepare some x-mas gifts that we were going to mail out the next day.

We were headed out the door as soon as Jason got home from work. We drove to Grass Valley to check out the Cornish Christmas. It sounded interesting. It was a fun night. There were guys roasting chestnuts over an open fire.

Carolers singing Christmas songs.

Of course, we had to grab something to eat there. We each had a bratwurst (that was pretty delicious).

There were creepy snowmen (that weren't suppose to be creepy).


And everything was decorated in twinkling Christmas lights and was very Christmassy.

We enjoyed our night, but 1 1/2 hours was too far to do this next year. If was still fun, though. If you live closer, you should check it out!


Saturday was another early day, I had another Christmas 5k to run. This time it was in Davis. I wanted to run without any pain. I didn't care about my time.


I finished the race in 33:48 (only 4 minutes slower than my best time) and had no pain. That means that I can start back on the treadmill tomorrow! Check out all the post race grub! Yum!!


After the race, we drove straight to the post office to mail out all the far away families gifts. If this is you (you know who you are), you should be expecting a package probably sometime next week.

On Sunday, Jason had his monthly game time with his friends. The only difference with this month is that he made the game. From the directions, to the board, he made it all. I'm so proud of him. He's so creative to do something like this.

While he hung out with his friends, I did some x-mas shopping. Jason is the last person I have. I only have 2 more things I need to buy for him. Afterwards, I met up with an old friend that I lost contact with and hung out for a while. It was nice seeing her. We meet up at Starbucks and caught up over some coffee.


It's been a busy weekend and all we want to do is curl up on the couch and relax while we catch up on some shows. We need to relax for this week of work and another crazy busy weekend, next week. Can't wait!
