Happy Tuesday

Just thought I would pop in and say hello to everyone. I wanted to share some of the cutest little owl things I bought at Target the other day. These are just too cute. I think they are supposed to be for Valentine's Day. They were just putting things out. I also got a large place mat that I am using under my keyboard. They have a pillow that matches too but I didn't get it. Maybe I will ask for it for my birthday. I hope everyone has a safe and fun New Years Eve. I will be back on Thursday to talk about goals for next year. Hope everyone will share theirs as well.

Merry Christmas to All !!!

Hello and Merry Christmas everyone. I hope everyone was able to spend a wonderful day with their families. I have spent a quiet day at home with my mom and dad. Now I still get to enjoy 3 more days off. YIPPEE !!!! I thought I would put a few pictures of some of my favorite gifts from my parents. They are very random, just like me. I got several of the books I had been dying for. I am super excited about my Harry Potter Clue game. I need some volunteers to play it with me. Of course I got some scrapbooking goodies. I love the 2 new ornaments I got. The frame holds a picture of my sweet Frosty and the other is the prettiest white owl.

I hope to hear about everyone elses Christmas too. Have a great weekend.

Friday Christmas Fun

Hi folks, sorry I haven't blogged this week. I have just been so busy with getting ready for Christmas. Friday was a super fun day. I went to pick up Amelia for our book club and took Kendall & Landon's Christmas presents. It is so much fun to see Kendall open hers now since she is so into it. She cracked up up !! She kept saying, "oh my goodness" while Amelia was showing her everything in her box. Then of course she had to open Landon's too. I just adore these 2 little ones. They are my babies.

Then it was off to Limestone county to Shannon's for our book club meeting. We had such a great time as always. I just love these girls. We always spend the whole time laughing our heads off. We played dirty Santa with books and had a blast. I got "The Friday Night Knitting Club" which is one I have been wanting to read.

Have a great day. I hope to blog some more Christmas greetings soon.

Christmas fun with the girls.

Last night we had our annual Christmas party at Amber's. We had our empanada's with cheese dip & guacamole as always. Really good stuff. We all got tons of great presents. Twilight love was present as always. I got a fabulous carousel of scissors from Jaime that I have wanted for awhile. I got 3 great movies from Amelia and a super fab Twilight movie book from Amber. I am truly blessed to have such wonderful friends. I have tons more Christmas fun coming up later this week. I will be sure to update with tons of pics. Here are some shots from the party plus, per Amelia's request, some pics of my scrapbook room tree.

Long Time No Blog

I can't believe it has been 2 weeks since I have posted. It is such a busy time of year. I finally got both Christmas trees put up. I would be one of those crazy folks with like 10 trees, all with different themes, if I had my own house. I have the most fab little tree in my scrapbook room. It is all purple and other bright colors with all my owls and penguins on it. I also have some Paris stuff on it too. Totally me.

Last Saturday I went to Nashville with the girls for our annual shopping trip. Usually we spend the night but since Landon is so small, we decided to just make it an all day thing. Opry Mills was crazy as always. I go the most incredible deal on a Fossil Alabama purse at the outlet. It is a $118 purse I have been lusting over for a couple of years. It was marked down to $29.99 with an extra 25% off. I was just stupid giddy with myself. The girls were so laughing at me dancing around in the store. It was the shopping find of the millennium.

Sunday I went to a baby shower for Jennifer. I can't believe she is having twin girls. She got so many wonderful things. It makes my biological clock start ticking louder and louder. I would give anything to have a baby. Unfortunately, it just doesn't appear to be in the cards for me. I guess I will just have to shower all my love on my niece and nephews. Yes, please note that I said nephews. Jaime found out Monday that we are adding another little boy to the family. It makes my heart swell just thinking about little Noah Emerson coming. From the day I met Jaime, she has always wanted a little boy named Noah. It brings tears to my eyes to think that he is finally on his way. I am so happy for her and Brandon.

This weekend I get to have my first Christmas gathering. This one is at Amber's with the girls. It will be fun as always. Next week I have work parties, one for just us and another where we go out to eat with Dr Hardy. It is kinda sad though, since our party will really be a going away party for Paige. Her last day is next Friday. Even though she drives me insane, I will miss her terribly. She is like my incredibly annoying little sister. Then we get to have a super party with the book club on Friday. I am so excited about that since I was sick and had to miss last time.

Oh well, I promise I will try to not wait another 2 weeks before I post again. I am sure I will have all sorts of party stories to share.
