It's been awhile I know. I've been busy and lazy and sleepy tired and lazy. But LOOK I'm here now!!! Yay!!
I have ALOT to write about....So, are ya settled in a comfy spot? Do you have a cup of coffee, tea or hot cocoa nearby?? No?!? Alright, go on, get yourself settled. No really, I'll wait....
Waiting....
Thank goodness you are back. I thought I may have escared (as Noah would say) you away!
Alright, here I go. I'm just gonna type as it comes to my head. It may be sloppy and flip floppy, but that's what you get with me =0)
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. It was so very relaxed and filling and funny and sentimental. Dinner was YUMMALICIOUS! Leftovers were even better! Mom cleaned out a few drawers and had some of us girls' things from our school yearsschool, it was so neat going through them. I took some home. Alyssa took some home. I will have to say the best thing that Mom 'found' was a big banner she had printed out on computer paper when I graduated High School, everyone that came to my Graduation Open House signed it. It was great to see what it read. Yes, some of you on my FB signed that banner! Who remember's doing that????
We decorated the house for Christmas the weekend following Thanksgiving. I spread it out to 3days. One, so the kids wouldn't drive me bananas and have something to look forward to do and ACTUALLY do. Two, who the heck wants to put all that out on 1 day?? Not me, that's who! Everything is all cozy and beautiful in the evenings, with the soft glow of
It is looking cold and gloomy out there....they are forecasting snow for tonite and tomorrow...1-4". Hope we get atleast 2. Ya know, enough to play in. 'In the meadow we can build a snowman and pretend that he is Parson Brown...' I ♥ Christmas!
This morning I did something that I have never done before. I was invited (thanks Carmen) to attend Mom2Mom. It is Moms of all ages that get together every Friday morning. The Moms sit at tables, there are probably 8-10 to a table (I'm guessing. No quoting me.)There is breakfast, coffee, socializing, guest speakers, and activities! This morning they had a guest speaker that spoke about Holiday Hosting. She was wonderful. My brain was absorbing everything that she had to say. And she was FuNNy to boot! She had a wonderful message to 'walk across the room'. Brighten someone's...anyone's day. Make them feel special. Needed. Loved. Give them hope...especially this time of the year. I am thinking John and I need to 'walk across the yard' soon, we have new neighbors that just moved in this week. We will go and welcome them to our neighborhood very soon. I think I will even bring them some treats! She had her friend read a story to us all that I have never heard of, and if you know me that is just odd. It was called ..."A Cup of Christmas Tea". It is a "familiar, uplifting story of the onerous family obligations that often descend around the holidays." (I got that from Amazon! You can click on the title and it will take you right to the link! p.s. I can't believe I actually got this clicky linky thing to work! I am AWESOME!!) It was sad at first, then it got glad. It was great to visit with other Moms. I will definitely be going back. =0) P.S. I am NOT going to eat before I go. That food looked yummo!
Everyone have a fun and safe weekend...You still comfy?? Bored?? Need a refill?? I'll be here when you get back =)
NOW on to the pictures! There's alot! They will be in the post below this one
