Christmas

Hi all!
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday! Ours was nice but I'm glad it's over. DD had a "barbie Christmas" - wow! She is loving it though. DS got an IPOD - there was not a Wii to be found anywhere! DH & I did just fine too!

We took the kids to the city for the weekend. Saturday night was very nice and we looked at the lights. Sunday was BITTERLY cold and REALLY windy! We were indoors most of the day, luckily!

My pictures are still in my camera -- I know, shocking! I will try to share a few this week!

They are calling for snow today/tonight - we'll see.... My cousin is getting married tomorrow so hopefully it won't be too bad!

Have a Happy New Year!

Quick check in

Hey!

I am still alive.

We had a nice Christmas and will detail more soon!

I just wanted to check in...

HUGS

It's coming, it's coming!

Christmas is coming!

Our DD informed us today that she just can't wait for Christmas! It's so fun to see her excitement and joy. She loves the music, trees, lights, wishes and treats. DS is getting old enough that he's pretty laid back about everything and is next to impossible to buy for!

DH has been on the "holy grail" quest for DS's gift for 3 weeks with no luck. I have a feeling he'll have a few little things on Christmas morning and an IOU...

DD got to see Santa today at Wal Mart and she was thrilled. Of course, her list was different than the one we've been hearing about! Why? Why must they do that?

I hope you are all having a joyous holiday season!
HUGS!

Ok...

So I had my cry and told him I was mad. I will be going shopping this weekend with his list of ideas (I made him do one!) and hopefully will be almost done shopping when I return.

Other than that, it has been a crazy week. Work is insanely busy and I don't know whether I'm coming or going right now. :) My christmas letters are still sitting in the computer and who knows when those will get out - maybe they'll be New Year's letters.

We got about 4" of snow on Tuesday night. It was pretty - just wish they would actually plow and put some salt down. Oh well...can't have it all!

Have a great day!
HUGS!

Are you kidding???!!!!!

Seriously, as I FINALLY come up with something to get my husband for Christmas (he is the one who gives me ulcers every year trying to figure out what to get him) - he orders it himself today!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! He never mentioned wanting it, nothing - I came up with the "perfect" gift today and was going to order it tonight. He mentions that he ordered it today.

I just want to cry! Now I don't have a clue again! ARGH!!!!!!!!!

Happy December!

GREETINGS!!!!!!
We were greeted with a lovely winter storm today (and it's still sleeting). In the 3 1/2 hours that my van sat outside at work today, I had to scrape almost 1/2" of ice off of it. It snowed about 1/2" this morning and we've had rain/ice/sleet since then. Welcome December!

We're gearing up for the holidays! The trees are up, decorated and lit. We got some shopping done this morning and are racking our brains on what to do for the kids.

Hope you are all well - I will continue our trip details in a day or two - I know, you're so excited...

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
