It's just amazing isn't it? What am I referring to, well, it's the countdown clock here; it reads: 44 days till Christmas!!! 44 days; my goodness, how quickly the time does fly by....
Good Morning! It's cold, it's frosty outside, and it's a Monday.
We had pretty nice weekend, Yesterday, we drove down to Baltimore City, and we went to Ravens stadium and watched the Ravens vs Titans game at the stadium. It was a hard hitting, toe to toe slug fest; but in the end the Ravens won. Good game, good time and afterwards, we went to Outback Steakhouse and had a good dinner.
Well, today, is my baby's birthday, yes, she's now, no longer a teenager any more....Ugggh, I'm getting old, I had one last week, turn 22 and now, the other one, as of this morning, turns 20. I no longer have any teenagers! Wow, again, how quickly, does the time fly by.....
"Happy Birthday wishes, to my baby girl; Victoria"!!:gift:
It's going to take me a bit to get caught up, so I'm going to jump in to say "Good morning MMC ~ Happy Monday!" I can't believe it's Monday already!! We had a nice (and busy, but relaxing) weekend! Friday I ended up staying home after the furniture was delivered & I cleaned & got out my Thanksgiving things. Then I decided to have my family over for brunch on Saturday morning! My cousins from PA & FL & all their kids came, as well as Mom & Dad, my sister, my bro & sil. We had cinnamon rolls, sausage bread & egg casserole. Was quite tasty. But um...little miss Gracie got ahold of the 3 Cajun sausage patties I had fried up for the sausage bread - stole them right off the counter- strainer & all! She was licking her chops until I realized what she had done - she ate every last bite! I was ready to beat her! Ha ha! So my hubby got to run to the store!!! Saturday I met up with the lake ladies, then went to my bro/sil's for a get together with all my cousins & brothers/sisters. I made a new onion dip & a new potato recipe ~ both were a hit! Then we stopped at our friends house to watch the Buckeyes. Yesterday our house was a happening place! Jims sister/hubby kids stopped over in the morning, then our neighbor kids came over to play with Gracie, then another neighbor girl came over selling dinner tickets, then our neighbor man came to see the house, then Jims Aunt/Uncle came to see the house. Then our friends came over - we ordered pizza...then another couple (friends) stopped over last night. Gracie was so devastated this morning when we were getting ready for work. She had such a fun day yesterday...b/c you know everyone was really there to see her! Ha ha! Now today she's all alone. Poor Gracie. :lol:
Back to the grind! Have a great Monday everyone!!!

You can't really see much apart from the fireworks and the big santa but the streets are all strung with lights etc!
