Money, Money, Money!!!

I guess tomorrow we are taking an unexpected trip to town. Blake's vacation pay cheque is in (they always pay this by cheque instead of direct deposit) and also his Christmas gift from his boss. Every year his boss gives 3 $50.00 gift certificates to a local butcher shop but this year he hired a whole whack of employees and its now only 2 $50.00 gift certificates :( however we are grateful for this generous gift regardless. This butcher shop is expensive but the meat is super yummy. We are purchasing a roast for a Boxing Day dinner at my parent's house and using one of these gift certificates towards it. We weren't planning on doing the extra trip, we were actually a bit relieved that Zack's skating lesson was canceled this Saturday but with Christmas around the corner we are able to knock the roast off the list at least. Today we are going to pick up my stepdaughter Jenna, who lives over an hour away from us and do a bit of shopping. It's going to be another one of those busy weekends!
