and their stockings were hung by the chiminey with cheer...

Merry Christmas again everyone. I just wanted to share this picture with you that my mom sent over from her living room in las cruces. She captured a great shot!
Just as a little update. Christmas was fantastic and less hectic than usual, bittersweetly we only had two houses to go to as mom and emery packed up at the beginning of last year and moved out to NM. Gifts were exchanged, cheer was had with Davina's super yummy gluwein (a traditional German mulled wine, kind of like our apple cider, but with alcohol!) and tummy's were full with our around-the-world feast!
Katie is now living up here as of the 23rd. and her room is STUFFED with her SD belongings! Dad said it is great except that he now has a THIRD full kitchen set (his, mine, and now katie's)....we are definitely having a garage sale - SOON!!!!
That's all, I am sick, woke up with a nasty sore throat and have been lying on the couch all morning, watching chick flicks and SNL best moments on "E!"
Erin S. and I are going out for dinner at our fav. Indian place and taking in the "Twilight" movie-finally! (she has already seen it). So I am trying to rest up so I am ready for a fun filled night! woo hoo!
Peace out!

Snot Pot, Brownies and One talented Child

Happy Thanksgiving...or soon to be. Just had some great entertainment that I wanted to share with all you viewers...even those of you that I don't know are reading (would love to hear from you).

Last saturday we spent the evening with Erin and Sean T. and had a blast making brownies that we( errrr...me) took out of the oven too soon, so they were more like mooosh than moist brownie, nevertheless they were great, especially with the ice cream on top! woot woot!


Then Aaron demonstrated how to use, what we are calling the "Snot Pot". My Aunt Vicki sent it to us and I swear to you aaron LOVES that thing. He swears it works and clears him up! He has used it two or three times a day, everyday. And how did we eat brownies and watch him drain his nose all at the same time (nearly)?!!!

Aaron and I will be taking our Christmas Picture on Thanksgiving...we are super excited about our lame and overdone idea....I may give you a preview!

Have a Happy Thanksgiving and eat as much Turkey as you want, the triptophan won't do anything to you, it's a lie!

Happy Merry HallowThanksMas!

Dude! So I was in a store maybe it was yesterday or maybe it was today....gosh one day bleeds into another when you work for a living....anyway all in one aisle I saw:
  • Halloween
  1. Candy- What!? Who's buys that this far in advance?
  2. Costumes: Isn't that like a last minute decision thing?
  3. PUMPKINS!- HELLO! It is still September! The pumpkin will wilt and die before halloween night comes! What the F!
  • Thanksgiving:
  1. IT'S STILL SEPTEMBER!
  2. We aren't even close to Halloween, let along thanksgiving. That is another 10 Weeks; 69 days (hehe); 1656 hours!
  • Christmas:
  1. Please just reference all the above comments.
I just don't get it. Do the stores really think that we prepare that early?!!! REALLY! I mean here is what I do, and I know there is a ton of you who do the same:
1. I buy just under a year a head for the next years holidays (i.e. I hit the sales the day after the holiday event)
2. I wait till the very last minute to buy the crap that has to be bought near the day of the holiday event, so I can garuntee to get the best price possible, and only buy what I need.
3....and I am not even "poor".

Do you feel me or what? I just hate seeing all these holidays bleed into one, and get promoted way too early!

So that is the post for today. small but to the point.
Hope you are enjoying the blog so far. If you think someone else would enjoy it, pass the link on!

"ok, peace out"
