    Christmas Shopping

    We’ve been busy! Friday night after work, we went out to eat and then ran over to Oak Court mall. I’ve always loved that mall but we don’t get over there very often. We had 2 things on the agenda: christmas presents, and also, new clothes for Chase. He’s wanting to get a few more “professional” looking things, for lack…

    christmas meme!

    1. Eggnog or Hot Chocolate? I don’t really care for hot chocolate, but since I’ve never had eggnog, I’ll have to go with hot chocolate. 2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree? When I as little Santa sat them under the tree. Now we wrap everything unless it’s too big. (No kids to surprise.) 3.…

    Decorating & Christmas shopping

    Friday night Chase and I decorated the house. Chase put up the tree while I put out everything else, we had Elf on the TV and I baked some cookies. It was fun 🙂 Here’s a few crappy cell phone pics. Not a lot new on the tree this year. Nothing geeky (didn’t see any we had to have from…

    Merry Christmas!

    Merry Christmas! We had a fun Christmas Eve yesterday. We got gift cards, clothes, etc. We got up this morning and opened our presents to each other. I got new boots, Ame-Comi Huntress, little princess figures (Snow White and Aurora), a book on Tudor England, “Up” on dvd, and lots of other little goodies. I can’t wait to get dressed…

    merry christmas 2007!

    We came back from Mema’s last night, it was the usual fun & madness. Got lots of stuff, and Chase and I got a huge framed Return of the Jedi poster and decided it would be from both of us to both of us LOL Some pics. I realised after taking this first picture that my mother set it out…

    wow

    Ok, saturday was seriously the weirdest, craziest, most insane day in my life, EVER. To preface all of this, the past several weeks at work, including this last one, have been insanely busy, as in I’ve been staying an hour late (sometimes more) and getting home completely exhausted. Some nights we don’t even get to go home, because we’ve been…

    Christmas 2006 Haul

    So this weekend was very interesting. Me & Chase, and my three cousins Cath, Rach and David all went to Mema’s Thursday, and stayed with her until Christmas Eve, like we have since we were kids. Thursday was spent shopping, and we rented some movies to watch that night. Unfortunately I had brought my Xbox, not my Playstation, so we…

    when i setup the nativity scene

    Is it so wrong of me to want the old Christmas decorations out? You know, I want the decorations that I grew up with out. Not any of this new stuff mom wants to replace the classic stuff with. I guess when I move she won’t argue with me wanting to take the old nativity scene, and my elves, and…

    when cath peed on the uno cards

    Another good one! http://kelldar.com/flyingorientalalienlemurz You guys certainly know how to make me laugh! Ok, Mema’s. There’s really not much to tell. We watched Terminator 3 which was good. Something got Cath tickled that night, and while laughing she spilled her coke on the bed. So that’s where we said Cath peed on the bed. On Monday, we all went to…

    when i made a christmas list

    When I was a kid we would get this Wish Book every year, just in time for Christmas shopping. I forget who put the Wish Book out – Sears, I think – but it had a LOT of toys in it. And as soon as we got it, I would go get a pen, sit down, and circle everything in…

    Ok, so this morning, besides the bike, I got mostly clothes. Which is what I asked for, I really needed new clothes and I got a lot of them! Besides the clothes I got the Arwen and Aragorn dolls, and the Gandalf/Shadowfax set (which is like, the only thing I really asked for), Two Towers for PS2, a Harry Potter…

    when it was christmas vacation

    BIG LONG THING ABOUT CHRISTMAS WEEKEND AHEAD! Now I’m sure the big question is, why didn’t my card get sent out Christmas Eve? I spent the whole weekend at my grandparents house with my cousins, of course, so I was already THERE Christmas Eve morning. As usual. Typically, Christmas Eve day goes something like this: grandkids are already up there,…

    when i got a bunch of stuff for christmas

    All right, all right, let’s talk about Christmas!! I can’t list everything I got. Too much small stuff. Too much stuff spread over two days. Hm, let’s see, Christmas Eve. A jack russell terrier pillow, a big what-do-you-call-it afghan? of the Beatles, a Beatles calendar, $50 gift certificate to Toys R Us, $25 to Target, zipper socks, Christmas toe socks,…
