Merry Christmas!

Yes, I said it - MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After a half day of work today and a lunch out with my wonderful co-workers, hubby & I did a little running around this afternoon on miscellaneous errands. DS's girlfriend was here this afternoon and for dinner - so we did our gift to her (I hope she really did like it...). Then because the weather has held off thus far, we headed to a drive through Christmas light display about 1/2 hour from home. It was fun, LOTS of lights and a donation to a worthwhile cause. If you are in the Aurora IL area - you should check it out (it runs through Jan.1). (I'll post pictures after Christmas) Tomorrow is a day off work (YEA!) and I plan to do a little baking and a lot of relaxing.

I wish you & yours a very Merry Christmas!

Straight No Chaser - The Christmas Can-Can (Animated Version)


I found the animated version of this song and thought it was pretty humorous!
(I did post a small 'catch up' below)

Stuff

I've been neglectful of my blog - sorry! Christmas is quickly approaching and I believe I am actually almost ready!


I finished my hubby's afghan in November. Much to mine (and his) delight. It's nice to have that off my knitting needles.











After MANY years of crocheting, I finally made my first granny square. Who knew they were THAT easy? Not me - but a future project is brewing...
Winter has definately shown itself around here this month! Cold, snow and wind. Nothing like a Midwestern winter. :)

I hope you & yours have a VERY joyous Christmas!

Looking at the Sky on Fridays

Honolulu, Hawaii
November, 2007
As the snow is falling tonight, I can look at this and think of the tropical air and sound of the ocean.
Ahhhhh....
