"All Wrapped Up"

Well the challenge this year is where to organize myself...Since Eric moved back in, lost my Office/My space; but I'm not complaining, I love having him back home. However, trying to figure out where to do organizing and wrapping is another subject.
After he and got home from shopping last night we started wrapping our gifts, imagine Michaels surprise when he realized most of them were for him.

Check out our cool 3D galsses

We finally decided to do see the Christmas Carol in 3D, and glad we did, I don't think we would have enjoyed nearly as much if we had not. The movie is very tradional, Scrooge is almost dark and dismal. We were expecting a comical twist on Scrooge since it was Jim Carrey, but he played it straight. In fact had we not known it was him, we wouldn't have recoginized him, not even his voice but in a few spots. Wouldn't take children under 10 or 11, not becuase it would scare them, but I think they might become board. We had a ball though, because we were together and we love the classic! Not exactly what I was expecting, more George C Scott then Jim Carrey, but enjoyed the special effects.

Should have used red ribbon.

Star bright, star light, I think I'll decorate my stars tonight. Only I used the wrong color ribbon, I was just so anxious to do them I used some ribbon I already had. Which means tomorrow I will have to go out and buy some red ribbon and redo them. Why can't I learn to be patient. How many times do I have to make the same mistake until I learn what God is trying to teach me.

Check out Michael's Retro Sweater

It's a good thing Michael never checks out my blog, that way he'll never know I tried on his new sweater. He's 23 years old, and I can't believe he picked this out...I love it!! Infact he and his brother both wanted it, but Mike won out, as he normally does when it comes to his big brother.

Happy Birthday November Babies!!

We had a wonderful second Sunday Breakfast with the Hudson's. Courtney was experiencing morning sickness so she and Charles weren't able to make it, but we did have a good time. We celebrated four November birthdays, Eric, Mike, Granny Patsy and Gigi's. Elizabeth decorated their cupcakes and they turned out very pretty. Our next Breakfast will be Sunday December 13Th. I just love our family time together, everyone is so relaxed and we can just laugh and make memories to share years from now on a second Sunday when we have grown older and need to remember the days of our youth.

Elizabeth gets creative with cupcakes...

I can't wait any longer!!

I couldn't stand it any longer so I had the guys bring down the decorations from the attic: here is a sneak preview of what's going on in my "Visions of Sugarplum World".
