AHHHH I got the biggest pain of decorating done.. my archway between the living room/dining room is always rough... garland/lights/berries/snowflakes... it takes a lot of time to get it right, but it's done! The mantle comes next.. lugging those bins up the basement steps is a workout after a run today! :)

Hope everyone's decorating is going smoothly or starting soon!!

Hey there! Been awhile! Seems we are never on at the same time. Decorating my house too!
 
Hi everyone! Hope everyone had a fun Halloween. We had an absolute blast. The girls were so dang adorable. Their Mom was cute, too. She didn't dress up, but still!

Happy November!!!! Can you believe it? I have thought about Christmas all day! I've got to start gathering stuff for Elf on the Shelf. Anyone else ever done that? Tips? We are going to put up our tree on Saturday. It is almost too much to handle. As a celebration, we are going to watch Christmas Vacation tonight when the girls go to sleep.

Why can't we be this happy all year?
 
I'm counting it! I believe I have witnessed my first Christmas commercial of 2016! I have already seen it twice, and I haven't seen anything else Christmas themed yet. Anyway, it was the Duracell commercial that has plenty of Star Wars in it. Kids are playing Star Wars with R2D2, who uses Duracell batteries, in what looks like a hospital. The hospital is decorated for Christmas. Although I would like it to be more Christmas, I would consider this as a Christmas commercial.

I was asking myself the same thing today, coach! It's such a fantastic feeling. Enjoy Christmas Vacation! I really can't wait to watch it either. I think I might have to wait until the start of the Season to watch Christmas movies, but I think Planes Trains and Automobiles is due to be watched shortly.

Good afternoon Brent. Sure seems like when the actual days arrive, they turn out to be some of the busiest days of the year. I am taking Sunday - Thursday off Thanksgiving week to decorate, cook and just plain relax. Have a phenomenal 1st...

Excellent idea to take Sunday to Thursday off. It will certainly help you feel ready for when Thanksgiving rolls around! Thankfully (no pun intended), I can move straight into Christmas on the 13th, with our Thanksgiving happening last month. Even though it can be stressful, I hope that you enjoy your preparations!

Waking up this morning I said to myself "It's serious now." It feels surreal but we are really getting close to the Christmas season and all the craziness and fun that will begin.

Yes, definitely. I am so excited to have all the festivity dates set and for the entire world become amerced with the Christmas Spirit!
 
I hope everyone had a good day!!! It's been a long one here. Mom had a doctor's appointment and then we had some errands to run. I also stopped by to see Ella for awhile and boy was she wild and crazy today. It felt like September too with a high of 80 degree's. Now I think I'm going to kick back and enjoy some of that candy I may have stoked up on today. Enjoy the rest of your evening's.

HMG- Praying for your family.
Holiday- Prayers for Gracie.

Good morning ~
Happy Tuesday and Merry November 1st!
I hope everyone had a Happy Halloween. Can't believe it's behind us already, October flew by. Today I will spend some time taking down my Halloween decorations and replacing it with the rest of my Autumn & Thanksgiving decor. I also have to do some food shopping. And we have to attend a wake later this evening, sadly my husbands Aunt passed from a massive heart attack. The funeral will be tomorrow morning.
I hope everyone is well and has a great day. And I'm wishing all of you a wonderful month of November <3

I am sorry for your loss.
 
Good evening, and Happy November!

It was a day of getting my team on the same page today, this year it is going to be a true sprint to Thanksgiving. We are 22 days away, which means I have about 18 days to sell what is so far about 1,200 turkeys with more yet to come. (18 days is what I figure what we should sell before thaw time is figured) Thanksgiving being just a few days earlier really puts the stress on.
I have been trying to multi-task with reading MMC and setting up my playlists for Christmas music, but the music is winning the majority of my time. I am beat tonight, which will be the theme for the month.

I hope you all had a great day.

Goodnight, everyone
