The Shafferland Shuffle

* Last Sunday was a busy little day in Shafferland! Our Sunday School class had a brunch during class, so we got to enjoy fellowship time with them, and then that evening, we went back to church for a "Songs in the Night" service. It was all Christmas music and readings, and I dearly loved it...especially the handbell choir. I used to play in one of those. After church, they had a little dessert reception, and we got to meet some new people, which we so enjoyed!

* Monday I started out to work but there were so many slide-offs, and the weather was predicted to get worse, so I turned around and came home, and I worked from home. At the end of the day, while I was waiting for Ryan to come home, I was playing around a bit with manual settings on my camera and took some pictures of Braeya. :) And then for the rest of the evening, Ryan and I had a marathon gift-wrapping session!

* Tuesday at work, I worked hard cleaning out this room...which after some renovation, is going to be our new office! Yep, Lynne and I are movin' on up to the back row with the morning guys! The room that used to be the Mid-Morning studio is now going to be our new office! We've been waiting and waiting for this part of the work construction...and we're so excited it's HERE!!!!

* Wednesday I had a fun surprise: a visit from my friend MJ who I met here in blogland! She stopped by the station and brought cookies for Ryan and me - THANK YOU, MJ!! You made my day! Ryan's work had a Christmas party during the day and in the gift exchange, he got the best flashlight EVER - which he was so excited about that he sent me this picture. I admit. Never seen one like this before!

* Thursday, Lynne and I got to have lunch with our friend Sheryl {YAY!} and when we got back to work, we found all our co-workers standing on the sidewalk! There was a gas leak at the building and they'd evacuated everyone! I buzzed in quickly to get my stuff and came home for the day. It was so nice to have dinner ready when Ryan got home - and we spent the evening working on our office organization project. And look what we recently acquired - FREE! Two nice file cabinets!

* I got to work Friday morning about 20 seconds before the fire department. Yep. Gas leak still causing problems! I was scared to death to go inside but they ended up getting everything under control {again}. But I'll admit, I was ready to go home by the end of the day!Friday night we had the best stay-at-home date with pizza and a very funny movie. Love the quiet nights at home!

* Yesterday Ryan worked, and while he did that, I finished shopping for his Christmas presents! I was so thankful it wasn't the snowy mess of a day it was last week, since I had to drive myself around town. After that, we went to a birthday party for his cousin's little girl who just turned a year old! I love meeting up with his friends and family, so it was a great afternoon!
