Christmas Countdown - 2014

[snowflake22]

Well we had fun at the fall festival this morning expect for the fact that it was FREEZING!!! LOL!!! I had dressed for the temps to be cold but the wind was supposed to die off. Well it didn't. It was horrible the whole time we were there. So it felt more like the lower 30's instead of the lower 50's. It even sleeted for a while. The booths that were making the most money were the one's selling hats, gloves, scarfs, or hot chocolate and hot apple cider. I had to buy gloves and bought several glasses of hot apple cider. There was lots of beautiful stuff to look at though in the booths that hadn't been blown away by the wind. (About a third of them had called it quits after the storms yesterday knocked over their tents or just because it was so cold out) I wish I could have taken pictures but just about every booth has a no photography sign up in it so people can't just come and get idea's for later.

Glad you guys had fun, it's too bad it was so chilly though!

Quiet day on here. Kim and I recently returned home from doing some errands. We did some Christmas sightings and then picked up some groceries. I was able to take a few photos. I will post them to the Blossoms thread momentarily!

I hope everyone is have a great Saturday. We're actually heading to Kim's friend's house shortly for a barbecue. It should be a good time!

Loved your pics!! Very Christmassy!!!!
Have fun at the BBQ!!

I loved the way the trees looked up against the courthouse.

The picture doesn't do it justice. The leaves are a lot more vibrant in person.

Gorgeous photo, buddy!!

Thanks, Buddy!!! I've been out there when it's been colder than this but there has never been wind like this for it before. That's what made it so bad!!

Yep, I know what you mean. The winds are bad here, too. Hurts when it blows through your ears- hats don't block it.

Warm up!!

Good evening, friends! Hope you're all having a great weekend so far. It's been a busy one here. Hoping tomorrow will be a slow day and I can find sometime to relax and catch up with you guys. I'm off tomorrow night and I'm looking forward to it. DH and my sister's boyfriend are finishing the stonework on our house; it should be done tomorrow.

Hope you all enjoy the rest of your evening. Ttyt! God Bless and goodnight!

Brr! That's cold! It was snowing here in Somerset County. I like the weather, but not ready for that yet! Try to get warm!

Hi! Just got back from the mall with my sister. I dragged her to all my Christmas haunts lol!! Macy's has swags and lights up and were setting up other decorations. Sears had some trees up and lots of boxes out. My sister usually laughs at my Christmas love but was surprisingly excited!!!

sounds like a wonderful day! Did you get any pictures?
Most everyone laughs at my Christmas love too!

Happy Saturday! Looks like most of you have a good start on enjoying the weekend.

The weather's dreary and chilly here, but it just makes a hot cup of tea that much more cozy! Maybe some popcorn or hot chocolate with movies this evening. It's Buster Keaton's birthday, and I think we'll watch something of his to commemorate the date. I owe him a lot because his movies helped me to get through chemo some years ago.

I'm burning a test DVD of this year's YuleTube. Fingers crossed. I usually have to tweak a few things and re-burn a couple times. It's the tedious part of doing it each year. But when that final, good master DVD is in our hot little hands, it's a great feeling! We usually wind up watching it several times during the season, enjoying the fruits of our hard work. Better go now and look in to see how the burn is going!

a cup of hot tea is a great idea! It is very chilly here, I was just outside BBQing burgers for dinner and my fingers are so cold now.
Hope the CD comes out like you are hoping!

Happy weekend everyone! I am just getting home from brandi's classroom and I think I have it fixed up pretty well for the fall/harvest/Halloween theme. Now I am going to relax and watch/listen to football the rest of the day! GO Dawgs! Also the weather is beautiful right now...it's 62F with lows in the upper 40's at night and starting tomorrow the highs will be about 70 to 74 the next ten days and dry...I think that is a touch above normal but I won't complain...yet now if it's late October or early nov and it's 70's I may, but I will try not too! Brandi's school is having their fall festival next sat and that looks to be a lot of fun and we are signed up to do a few booths. I hope everyone has a great autumn weekend and I hope the weather is great for everyone!

I love decorating for fall, used to do my school bus up for each season and holiday, the kids loved it. So nice of you to help Brandi with her classroom. Enjoy the fall festival, sounds like it will be great!

it is freezing almost here now, the wind is so cold, it is 2c (35f)
Sounds like you all had a great time today, I think I will get a hot chocolate too and warm up!

I finally saw some Christmas items in a store only to realize I forgot my phone!

I loved the way the trees looked up against the courthouse.

the pictures I take with my phone never do the colors justice either. Yours looks beautiful!
