WOW….I am behind schedule….

So, Thanksgiving was quiet and fulfilling. Smile The in-laws were here (mother and step father) and we pretty much ate and hung out. I injected the turkey and it was the best turkey I have EVER had/made! We also went Black Friday shopping!!!! And boy did we get no sleep but lots of finds. We decided to keep the objects to a minimum and so we set our eyes on THIS baby:

Thaaaaat’s right! 42 inches of plasma fun! Not the most high end, but perfect for us! We have been wanting to upgrade from our 20 inch box for a while, and Black Friday was the best time. Smile 

So, on to Christmas;

I have been super busy! I finished the pajamas, made rice bags and coasters for presents, went shopping for my parents, Bun’s parents, my nephews, and of course Buns! Check out all the presents under the tree!

LOTS of presents…..I LOVE my tree!!! When I was growing up, my mom would buy an ornament for every year we are alive. This year, my mother gave me all my ornaments. So, they are all on the tree.
