Catching up

A lot has happened since I last blogged. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with my father-in-laws side of the family and yummy dessert with my mother-in-laws side. I made a yummy pumpkin chocolate chip cake from scratch that was delicious. I'll post recipe later. Then every year Brads grandma Cordy goes shopping on black Friday, this was my second year going. So Brad and I woke up at 5:00 am and met Grandma. We almost got all of our shopping done. We had lots of fun with Grandma.

We started at Target..... Not as crazy as last year



Then to radio shack... pretty much empty


Macy's..... pretty crazy! I think Grandma Cordy
and I smelled every perfume possible.


and last, but not least Costco


I love shopping and especially when I'm getting things for other people. I think I spoil my nieces a little to much!

So being the kind of person that I am, I decided to go to target today and get a tree. The one thing I love about Christmas is the smell of the Christmas tree when you first walk through the door. Since we don't have that much room in our cute little house, I decided to get a little charlie brown tree. Brad wouldn't let me get new ornaments because we don't have room for them, so I used last years. So here's the final product.... (please excuse the boxes, they are full of Levant shirts for sale )





I love this time of year, all the Christmas lights, cold weather, cuddling with Brad, and spending time with the families. Only 16 days tell Christmas and I'm really excited!!!
