Christmas Day… not so much. Our Christmas was good until early Christmas Day morning. I have been debating in my head whether or not to mention that tid bit here on the blog. But the fact of the matter is, this is a record of our life and well, this one will definitely go down…
Love & Joy Come to You…
I am pretty sure I won’t be posting too much this week (it’s okay, I’ll be alright… I think…) I may autopost a Wordless or Wordful or both on Wednesday but we are off to see the wizard, I mean my family, tomorrow afternoon and well, I will be busy making merriment of ALL kinds…

WW – House de Gingerbread
I bought a gingerbread house kit on sale at Macy’s a few weeks back (yeah, you know, that Martha Stewart stuff…) The B Man and Anna had fun helping me decorate it today. Now the question is, how long can we wait until we eat it? Hmmmm…. The “naked” house The little elves hard at…

On Saturday morning we headed out to honor one of our family Christmas traditions. Every year we like to visit the Galleria mall in Dallas because we love the ice skating rink, the huge tree and well… their particular Man in Red. See we (the hubs and I) aren’t “waiters.” We don’t like to wait….

It’s Up!
