- Isla got her picture taken with Santa on Sunday. My mom and I waited just over an hour in line for her to see the big guy, and it went really well! She seemed to love Santa and was quite into pulling his beard, lol. (Luckily it was a real one or the other kids in line may have been scarred for life.) Anyway, there were no tears and her photo turned out pretty awesome!
- We put our Christmas tree up on Wednesday! Well, actually – Kyle put it up in the stand for me and then decorated it. You know how long it took me to get it all decorated? 11 hours! I’m not even joking. I started around 12 a.m. on Wednesday an discovered that I didn’t have enough lights to string through the tree. (It’s a girth tree this year!) So, after getting through appointments in the early afternoon, I was able to get more lights. I started hanging lights and beads, but then I had a hair appointment so I had to postpone yet again. Then I was starving, so dinner had to be eaten, and we needed stuff from Walmart, so a trip to the store was in order. AND THEN Isla needed to be fed before she went to bed. So – around 11 p.m. last night I finally finished it – and it looks awesome, IMO :) See for yourself:
- The Christmas cards that I designed and ordered through Costco’s website arrive yesterday, and as I was writing them out and addressing the envelopes, it looked like I didn’t have enough. I counted them out, and they only sent me 22 cards and 20 envelopes! I ordered 40!! Needless to say, they’re going to get a lovely phone call from me this morning.
- I really want to do some Christmas baking, but since it’s just Kyle and I it’s pretty much pointless unless we both want to weigh 600lbs each by the new year. I have SO many things pinned on Pinterest it’s not even funny.
- You know how much of a pain in the ass it is to grow your bangs out? Well, it is. Ugh.
That’s it from me.
Happy Friday!
