Good morning everyone!!
We have another snow storm on the way, due to hit our area this afternoon. (up to 15cm of snow)

Have a few things to do around the house yet before our big family Christmas party on Saturday. House is all decorated, cheese cake baked, just have to decide what to cook for dinner now. (pot luck, so everyone is bringing something) Still have to make the eggnog which has to be done a couple of days ahead. Also got a cake order for Friday, so have to get that done too.

I love this time of the year!!!

You're going to love this storm, Star. It started here this morning and it has not let up. The nice part is that it is only white, fluffy snow. The wind isn't bad at all. My mom's husband has already snowblown the drive way twice this morning....!
 
Beautiful pictures Brent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks! It was neat to be out there in December. I don't think I ever have before.
 
Nice photos, Brent.
The first one looks positively Arctic!

It felt like the Arctic!! The funny part was that my dad and I went inside to eat lunch and it was even colder indoors!!
 
Good afternoon, everyone!!

It's noon on the final double digit day of the Countdown to Christmas. Who ever thought we'd get this far? Incredible!! As mentioned, it is snowing here. I can recall a few Christmases where we barely had any snow for Christmas, including two that were green Christmases... Thankfully, there is no threat of that this year! Plenty of snow.

We are in the process of updating our Christmas lights and decorations, both indoor and out. Because of this, the house seems to be lacking in full-out Christmas decorations this year. Outside seems bare with only a few decorations and the Christmas Room only has about half of the previous years. Upstairs is still yet to be done. Hopefully it picks up the spirit.

Not done decorating yet?! I can explain that. Today is my mom's birthday and it has always been a tradition to complete decorations on her birthday. Tonight, we are decorating the tree and finishing off everything. I'm excited. Pictures will be posted later.

Have a great final day of double digits everyone!!!
 
Morning Everyone!
Well I can't say we are having a heat wave but it's much warmer out today than it has been lately. About -8 yesterday evening. Right now 29... Wow! 9 more days to go. Doesn't seem possible. I plan to get my baking started soon. Have a great day!!
 
.....I know a lot of you don't know me too well, but some of the people from the old Christmas.com days know I've been around for quite a while. I'm not sure if this is the place to do this, but I'll ask anyway. If any of you have sent out your Christmas cards, and you noticed that you have one left over, and you really hate to just toss it out, I have a request. There is this Marine I know. He is serving as we speak. He and his wife just had their 1st baby (A boy on 13Dec09). Because of where he is and what he is doing, he is not allowed to come home on leave. He will not see his new son (in person) until May or June. I'm not asking for anyone to run out and buy a special card, or anything, just if you have an extra card left over.

His Address is:

Cpl. Matthew T Lynn
HMLA 367 Fire Control
Unit 42065
FPO AP 96427-2065

Regular postage.

If you decide to send a card, please congratulate him on his new parenthood, and say Hi from the Iron Eagle. And please keep him and all who serve in your prayers.

All of us at the Eagles nest Thank You !
Fantastic idea, Iron.
Bet he gets lots of cards!
Think of all the happiness from the mere cost of 44 cents.
(I'll have to look around for a extra card!)
 
Hi guys!!!

We are decorated, gifted, wrapped and ready in the Ish household! It has been a fabulous season and promises to be an even better Christmas week. Working on cards a few a day which helps to prolong the spirit and have it not be such an overwhelming process. 2009 has been a challenging one and I'll not be sorry to see it go, but we are healthy and happy anyway!

Best to all, you bunch of Christmas tree huggers, you!

I was wondering the same thing.cheesy

Just to warn you - it gets MANIC here on Christmas Eve!! The year before last worked pretty well and there was a real-time countdown to Christmas day; I think I was lucky because it was Christmas Day here 5 hours before the East Coast and I brought in the Day with my MMC family.

Last year the site had so many hits it was very difficult for everybody to get on.

I think the solution is to just log on the minute you wake up on Christmas Eve and just stay here cheesy !!!!!!!!!!!
 
I tried getting on on the 24th in the afternoon and couldn't... wasnt back until about 2AM Christmas day..\\
