[sugar142286]

Good morning everyone, It's Saturday; Yea..... I'm sitting on the couch watching "Christmas with Holly" on the Hallmark channel, sipping on a hot cup of coffee, while waiting for Vicki to wake up upstairs. This is my first Christmas movie of the season, so here we gooooooo~

Yup, she's home for the weekend for her brothers birthday this weekend and then she will be home again next weekend for her and my birthday next weekend. I'm sooooo happy when she's home from school.....

We are going to spend the day out running around, taking her for a haircut, shopping, lunch, etc... So, hope you all have a splendid day:!!

Enjoy your weekend and everyone being together!

Good Saturday afternoon, my Christmas friends!

Elizabeth is getting ready to go to Nutcracker practice, then later this evening, Nancy and I are going out on a date. It's been a while since we've been out alone...don't wait up! The kids are going out to my mom's.

I won't get a chance to work on the Camaro again this weekend. I just know Jim thinks I've given up on the project. But, it's been an extra busy couple of weeks around here. We started on the car at Christmas last year...almost a year ago! I was sure we'd be driving by now. Oh well.

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Enjoy yourselves, Brad!

Hellooo everyone!!! Sipping some gingerbread tea and I have some chocolate chip cookies baking away.. mmm! All of the boys of the house are out at the park so I am here, basking in Christmas glory!! Loving Kringle Radio!!!

We had a lovely family hike today.. fall foliage is peaking and it was just beautiful. We went on a few different trails than our usual and saw some beautiful birds and deer. The kids had a blast and my city born and bred husband is finally learning to enjoy the great outdoors! Lovely morning.

This afternoon, my husbadn is making himself some wings on the grill (likely it's last hurrah!) and we'll probably light a fire outside. The kids love to do that (so do I!!)

Tomorrow is Byer's Choice GRAND ILLUMINATION! If the timing is right and we get home from my aunt and uncle's early enough, we will go! THey light all of their outdoor lights tomorrow and it's just beautiful and so close to our house!!

Loving that everyone is getting ready to decorate or already doing it!!! My fall stuff is comign down slowly but surely and I did a major cleaning yesterday. I can't wait to start bringing my beloved Christmas bins up tomorrow!!

Sounds like such a fun day! Enjoy!

I had an idea that I was going to post in the Thanksgiving forum but I wasn't sure if anyone would participate. If you think that'd you join in, let me know and I will go post it in there. I didn't want to start it if no one was going to jump in!

I know a lot of people do this online or at the dinner table - every day during the month of November, you're supposed to say something that you are thankful for. It can be big or small, serious or not so serious - anything that you appreciate. It's such a great way to bring some positivity into your day! I figured we could all post daily and say something that we are thankful for, or we could just edit our original posts and add to it each day.

Plus it's a fun way to lead up to Christmas....by the time we're done it'll be December! :-x

I love this idea! Go ahead and start it, Jennifer. I know people would participate!

Good afternoon,

I am completely immersed in Christmas stuff today. I have Music Choice Christmas on, I am going through my MP3's also, trying to figure out what I should add or take out of my player. I am resting up as my back is in quite a bit of pain again today. It is me and one of our cats, Alex, on the bed listening to the music. My wife went to one of those parties that friends sell jewelry, my wife sells Mary Kay, so she feels she has to go to others when they have them.

Hmmmmm, I wonder if there are such things as Christmas ornament selling parties.

My wife ran out and bought that huge nutcracker that LC fell in love with. remember the picture:

He is going to be in shock on Christmas morning when he opens it up. Rite Aid already has a 50% off sale on all Christmas!!! They aren't even close to being done setting it up.

I should get back to my Christmas music fun, I am loving doing this right now. It will probably be the only time I get to do it since I can't go back to work until Wednesday, after that I have to decorate the house.

Keep enjoying your Saturday!!!

That's so awesome! He will be so excited when he opens it.

I'm doing the same thing now, but I just don't have the fireplace on! Hehe - it's actually been pretty warm here. Is it cold there?

It is really cold in the mornings, below freezing. But warms up to the mid 40's during the day

Hope you're having a great weekend, sugar!!

We just got back from shopping and running around (6 hours on the road and shopping)! While we were out, we stopped at the local CVS and got our flu shots for the season; fun-fun.....lol

I'm going to relax for a couple of hours and then were going out to dinner at the "Macaroni Grille", I've been there twice before and I'm not a big fan but that's where Zach wants to go for his birthday dinner....

One good thing, is that the weather has all cleared up and the sun is now shinning brightly outside but the temperatures are supposed to start dropping tonight into the low 40's and tomorrow night with the low's in the 30's. I like the cooler weather this time of the year, it just feels so right~

Take some Motrin! I am not sure if you're arm ever gets painful, but I know mine always does. If it does, that will help.

So jealous! The closest Cheesecake Factory is around the Pittsburgh area. When we are out there, we always have to eat at one. I love it. The food is sooo good and you the cheesecake is to die for! I hope you enjoyed for the both of us!

I must live a sheltered life because I have never been there, LOL! The city is a pain to drive to, though.

I love that one as well! DH favorite one is the Eat n' Park one, where the tree picks up the star from the ground. I like that one as well.

I love the Eat n' Park one!!!! I would say that it is my second favorite. I guess in PA we have some good commercials! cheesy

There are a few in Pa. I totally recommend it. It's a must!

Hope you're all enjoying you're evening! Matchmaker Santa is on Hallmark. I love this movie! It's one of my favorites.

Yay!!! How fun!!! Enjoy yourself, Meceka!!!

Will Palmer be your little helper?!
