I am heading out to get some Christmas shopping in. I received a $25 Target card in the mail today from Gather, which joined my $55 worth I had in my purse, giving me $80 to shop with! I could wait- I . . .

Last night, I took more photos of the tree all lit up. Some with just the colored lights, some with both. I love how the tree turned out this year. I really do like having a white tree- the colors all . . .

I still feel gross today. I woke up with a horrid sore throat from sleeping (when I get sick, I always feel worse in the morning). Anyway, Nick had cleared out the corner where we wanted the tree. It . . .

This sucks! I have been intending to pull the Christmas gift tubs out of the bedroom and begin wrapping for days now, and today is yet another day I won't be able to do it. -sigh-

I just got back from running to Walmart & Dollar Tree to shop. Walmart was dead, and the holiday stuff wasn't picked over. I've been there on the 26th before, and the place is usually packed, . . .

Back before Halloween, I found a cool strand of 10 lights at Goodwill, which are more likely than not vintage. I would guess they were from the mid to late 70's, but I could be wrong.

Here are a few quick photos of my finished tree. I'm sure I'll take and post many more in the days to come- last year, it was an obsession! I love how festive and colorful it turned out this year. . . .

Well, the gifts are unwrapped, the stockings dumped out, and the ham is nestled quietly in a bed of butter, brown sugar, and water in the crock pot.

Well, I did it- I went shopping, and took Hubby with me. In years past, I've had good luck starting at 24 hour places. No waiting in the cold, and I can shop early. We opted to start at Walmart, because . . .

Yesterday, we left late to go pick my niece Morgan up, and head to my mother's for Christmas. The fog was horrible once we picked Morgan up, but we made it to mom's at just about 5pm. The house . . .

Last week, I took the kids pictures in front of the tree for Christmas. I am not overly excited at how they turned out. There were a few cute ones, but none that I love enough to want to frame them like . . .
