Too cold to move

November 15th, 2006

We finished our errands extra early today, it is freezing outside. We gassed up the Jeep, and drove around town for a little bit, and then headed home. They are calling for snow today, and the wind is crazy outside. I’m so not ready for winter yet.

Thade is busy watching Cars for about the 50th time, and I’m doing some Christmas browsing online. I’m almost all finished with the shopping. Meal planning is what is next for me to do. I’m debating between making it simple, or going all out and cooking a giant meal. What to do…

Shopping in K.C.

November 13th, 2006

This last weekend, Thade, my mom, and I headed up to K.C. to visit my brother. The weather was so cold, but we had a great time. We got to shop, and eat tons of great food. We made a visit to Toys R Us for Thade, which he loved. I quickly realized that if I lived in K.C. I would be completely broke from all of the awesome places to go and spend money.

It was a great trip, and I hope to get there more often to visit.

Almost Done

November 6th, 2006

Well I’ve started my Christmas shopping, and I have the two toughest people to buy for all finished. I still have to take Thade to get pictures. I still have to buy for my brother and my sister (in law), but that is it. I’m trying to be all done before the day after Thanksgiving. We’ll see if I get there.

Last Friday I went to a Christmas workshop with my neighbor, and I got a ton of great ideas. I’m trying to attack Christmas from a different angle this year. I’m going to get the meal planning, shopping, and decorating done early. So that way we can all get on with our lives, and make it through another holiday season.
