This is a great one. 🙂 Worth a post! HOLIDAY EATING TIPS1. Avoid carrot sticks. Anyone who puts carrots on a holiday buffet table knows nothing of the Christmas spirit. In fact, if you see carrots, leave immediately. Go next door, where they’re serving rum balls. 2. Drink as much eggnog as you can. And […]

Last night we were supposed to have our family Christmas with John’s parents. Unfortuently, Smokey came down with the flu and was not able to come. Since Mom already had a yummy turkey dinner in the oven we sat down to consume the whole thing and completely stuff ourselves. 🙂 Yum. We came home and […]

So, we are standing in line for dinner (I’m the take-out Queen!) and this woman on her way to the drink machine stops, says the obligatory ‘What BEAUTIFUL red HAIR!’ and then runs her hands over my childs head to… feel her hair? Admire it’s baby strands? What? The only thing I have in common […]

Ok, usually I am the one hovering behind the cook and ‘sampling’. When my Mom used to make cookies… Ok, when I was HOME to enjoy the fact that my Mom made cookies, I would beg for a beater for the raw cookie dough. YUM! So, this year… I decided that I would try a […]
Everytime I tell myself I need to wrap presents… I wander over here to the computer instead. Ack! I have purchased approx. 67 gifts for people in the past month and now I need to wrap them. Yet… here I am. I hate wrapping. I need to sign up for those services where I get […]

Oh god, these are hysterical…I’m only on #25 and I’m in tears! Sam is very wary of men at first… so I can just imagine how she will react to Santa!
Look at these snazzy photos that Drew took of Nicole & Mike! C’est Manifique! The dogs looks so cute too! Hint from Mike: If you want to see all the photos, go to the slideshow and next to their name is a box and when you click on it, it says Show Controls and then […]

I have two cousins that serve our Country. One is my cousin Kyle on my Mom’s side of the family. He’s in the Marines, I believe, and stationed off in San Diego. Since he is so close we get to see him for some family gatherings. 🙂 He’s training to do that thing where they […]

* KOST103.5 is playing Christmas music all day long. 🙂 Need I say more? * Holy cow, Starbucks has PEPPERMINT hot chocolate!!!! It’s like a mint chip ice cream but it’s all warm and cozy. It’s my new favorite thing! I love how it takes me years to catch on to these things. It’s like […]

New Orleans was great. Sam was an angel on the plane. I nursed her a lot and she was able to sleep about 1/3 of the time on both flights. Other than that she played happily on our laps, read books, looked (tore) magazines, met a boyfriend who was on his way to New Zealand… […]
