Christmas Countdown - 2016

[Holiday]

There were a couple points last night that I might have joined Gracie down there!!

Stay dry and have a great day, Holiday!

No kidding! She was the smart one! If nothing else at least it was quieter with no flashing lights down there!

Hope you stay dry & have a great day too, made!! Merry Friday Eve!

Have y'all seen the new chat room function? Just noticed it on my phone today. Pretty cool!

Pretty cool, huh? I haven't had a chance to go there much but it's a nice feature!

Good morning my Christmas friends! Merry Friday Eve!!!! What a rainy/stormy night. It poured & poured - never let up! It stormed & stormed around 2am. Gracie slept in the basement under her table. LOL! We have a bit of a break right now (only sprinkling) but more rain is predicted this afternoon...and a high of 58º! Hello Fall!

Hope your Thursday is off to a good start!!

Poor Gracie sleeping under the table. This is definitely Fall weather. Here they announce rain for 5 days straight. Hope Gracie had a good time at the groomer's and meeting the new Wheaten puppy. Have a great day!

Good Thursday morning! This week feels really long for some reason. I have off tomorrow but working this weekend (last weekend working until December yes!!!). I just finished designing the invitation for our Christmas party at work. Now to get everything printed and put together. I need to start to get ready for work, I'm on the afternoon/evening shift. Hope everyone will have a great day!

Good evening,

A busy day around the homestead today. I did the dishes, made a run to Goodwill to drop off a donation, and look around, mowed the front yard but the lawn mower broke down. I was able to finish by using our old mower. I have to pick up the part at Lowes, so I can finish the back yard. Did laundry, took the kids to the book fair. I am beat tonight. My wife just finished watching the debate, I had enough of it, I think I am suffering from election fatigue at this point. I just want to laugh so I went to the bedroom and watched Impractical Jokers.
Back to work in the morning.

I hope you all had a great day
Goodnight, everyone

Have a great day xmas...I am so sick of all the election stuff too!! I did watch the debate too.

Merry Thursday,

Last day of school for the kids today. They are off tomorrow and next week for mid term break. We will kick off our Halloween celebrations tonight!

Have a great day everyone.

Happy Friday Eve, Snowflake. Prayers for Harlowe and please keep us updated!

Just buzzing through ... time to attack the work on my desk.

Have a great day!

Good morning everyone. I've been traveling each day this week, home at night but on the road long hours during the day. Thankfully it slows down today. I hope you all have a great Thursday.

Hope you can get some time to relax...have a good day!

Good morning, everyone!

I am back at Russell today. It was a foggy drive that could be making way for some serious rainfall. The rain is suppose to hit within the next hour or so and remain until tomorrow morning, at the earliest. I am only here for half a day, so I hope that the roads won't be that bad on my drive home.

Although we were suppose to take our engagement photos on last Sunday, the weather forced us to do it yesterday evening after work. It went very well. Kim and I really enjoy our photographer, which makes it much easier. We should have a few photos in the next couple days, and then the rest will be with us in two or three weeks.

I don't think much else is happening today. After the gym, which I missed yesterday due to photos, it should be a nice night.

It's nearly Friday, friends. And, best of all, the countdown is getting even lower! Sooooo close! Have a great Thursday!

Have a good day, Brent! Happy to hear the photos went well!

Good morning Martine! Under the table in the basement is Gracie's safe spot during storms - or even heavy rain. Funny how she caught on to that.
I think Gracie did have fun at the groomers!

Enjoy your day off tomorrow - & woo hoo for no more work weekends (after this weekend) until December!!! I'm sure you will enjoy that!!
I bet the invitation is beautiful & festive! How fun!!
Have a great day!!

Happy Friday Eve!! I just got back from my youngest daughter's school conference. She is doing well so that is good. The weather is nice out today...cooler but still nice. My oldest has her Homecoming Dance on Saturday night and I agreed to have six 14 y/o girls sleep over after...so I will just have them sleep in the basement. I said as long as they don't keep me up I am fine with it..lol
Hope you all have a great day!

Good Thursday Morning MMC! Happy Friday Eve! Looks like the real warm weather is gone but still not bad today either even though it's 15 degrees cooler. More of a chill is going to hit us Friday night through the weekend and right through next week. Real Autumn weather is on it's way very soon. Bring it on I say...not that I have a choice . Just got a bunch to do at work today and then going to hang out with Rollins after. He woke me up a few times last night. Lately he had been sleeping mostly through the night or at least not waking me up lol. He wanted to play at 1AM. Luckily I went to bed earlier last night so I still got a good amount of sleep.
Have a great day!

Hope you get all your work done and sleep better tonight.

Yep! The fire is going!
Mr Festive reminded me that it's not even winter yet. I better adjust to the cold.

Thank you Holiday and Festive! ToMorrow morning she will get her gifts and then Mike said he would take her to Toys r us to pick out a special gift just from him while I am at the dentist and finishing other last min party things. I have 10 kids between the ages of 2 and 6 coming to her party. We were going to paint pumpkins but I changed my mind and we are making Christmas door hangers instead. Saturday will be my day to recover.
