Hey Michelle.  Sounds like you guys are really enjoying the Christmas season!  Have a great time at the lighting display and with Santa.  I am taking my little ones to see the big guy tomorrow. 

Charlie is working at night for a few weeks plowing snow until he gets his permanent job.  That is kind of a bummer, since I don't really get to see him.  But, at least he has something to keep him busy.  As for me I am loving all the snow we are having and can't wait to get all my Christmas boxes shipped!

Have a great weekend all.

HUGS!

Woohoo it's Friday!    Had a great night last night.   Even though I was tired I'm glad we went.   We went with our church caroling in the neighborhood.   Sadie absolutely loved it....singing as loud as she could.   She loved playing in the snow along the way as well.   Of course we had to sing Rudolph like 20 times for her LOL.   She told daddy..."hey this is kinda like trick or treating!".   It kinda was but we gave out treats instead of getting them LOL.   Glad we did that with her and will have to be sure we do it every yr.   It was fun seeing people's faces light up and even some of them sang along.  

Today is a big day for Sadie!!   We're going to the lighting display and to see Santa tonight.   Actually she's more excited to see Frosty than Santa LOL.  I'm going to a meeting for work at Olive Garden this afternoon.....oh shucks what a terrible thing to have to do.    hehehe  We'll do the Santa thing and get some dinner tonight...then we're stopping to buy Sadie a new sled.  Tomorrow after I work 4 hrs in the morning we're taking Sadie sledding then to see Great Grandma.   Bringing like 10 meals for her, homemade cookies, and pictures of us all.   She'll be excited to have the company I'm sure.  Sun is going to be fun as well....church smorgasbord....and a little party at my father in laws for the kids.  Somewhere in there I'll get my wrapping done I hope. 

It's 9 degrees here today.....it's strange when I think that's kinda warm LOL.  Should be good weather wise to do some outdoor stuff this weekend. 

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Morning!   It's warm here too.... a balmy 12 degrees.   Woohoo  LOL.   I was just telling DH this morning that tomorrow is supposed to be a high of 28 and it's going to be really warm LOL.   We need to get out to the big outdoor lighting celebration again so Sadie can see Santa finally.  www.bentleyvilleusa.com that's the lighting thing I'm talking about.   It's amazing!  I need to go get 2 gift cards still otherwise I'm finished shopping.   I have yet to wrap anything and can't remember what I've boughten and where I've hidden it all hehehe...it'll be like a treasure hunt for sure.   Not sure when I'll get it done.   Time is running out.   Tonight we have our church night...dinner first and then we're going out to do some caroling.  Should be fun.   I'm having problems with my feet though so not sure what I'll do....my one foot is soooo hard to get any shoes to feel good.   The only ones I've ever had that I can honestly say are comfortable are my Crocs....I'm tempted to go buy a pair of the Crocs with the lining for winter.  Tomorrow I think we'll head out to that lighting thing right after work.   I still have 4 more hrs of OT to work this week which will probably end up happening Sat morning.  We plan to go visit DH's grandma on Sat...she doesn't like to go out so won't be with us on Christmas Day.   We got a nice frame and put our family pic in it for her plus I've been freezing meals for her as I've been cooking....still going to make a casserole and stuffed peppers to bring her before we go.  We'll also bring her a plate of homemade goodies (cookies etc...).   She'll be thrilled just to spend time with us I'm sure.  Might take Sadie sledding after visiting but of course we'll have to go buy a new sled first.....i think her infant one will be a bit too small.   I'm hoping to get time Sat night then to do some wrapping.  Sun we have church....smorgasbord after church for lunch and then at 4 grandma and grandpa are having a little Christmas gathering at their house for Christmas since we're doing the big celebration here at our house this yr.  Wow I'm tired already....well at least Sun is pretty relaxing and fun....actually the whole weekend will be except those 4 hrs of work. 

Hopefully you are all having a good week....I really do enjoy checking in with you all each day......it starts my day out right!   I'm happy to have the 3 of you here!
