Merry Christmas 2008

Here are some pics of Christmas morning and a few days before when we were decorating the gingerbread houses. As you can see Erik was excited for his XBOX 360. And Elise was excited for her Vtech. All in all it was a great holiday and I look forward to many more fun Christmases.

Because It's Spring

I can't seem to figure out why I love these little tags and question things. Maybe I just want people to know me. Maybe I'm more myself and more honest. Or maybe I'm just bored to death (which I shouldn't be considering I now have work on my desk, but it's Friday and I'm feeling lazy). So enjoy and use if you like :)

1. Put your iTunes on shuffle.
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
3. YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN NO MATTER HOW SILLY IT SOUNDS!
4. Tag friends who might enjoy doing this as well as the person you got the note from.

Finally some pics from Thanksgiving

Ok, I finally have pictures from Thanksgiving. Well the first one is just Elise in the bath.

All the yummy pies. Sorry you have to turn your head.
Myles looks really sleepy. It's all that yummy turkey :)


James enjoying a leg.


My plate after dinner. Yep, it's all gone. I fell asleep very shortly afterwards.


Sam showing me his egg and his smile.


The dinner table all fancy.

This is the RV we took to Arizona. It was so much better than the little van we rented a few years ago.


Can't remember if this was before or after dinner.



Anyway... it was fun and I want to go on vacation again soon, but oh well. Guess I'll just have to wait for April when we go see my family in Utah :)

Don't feel like working

I have a little bit of work to do, but honestly don't feel like working. I'll get to it in about 5 mintues from now. I just wanted to say that Thanksgiving pictures are on the way (I need to find my adapter) and then you can all experience the joy that was Thanksgiving. No, honestly it was a really nice weekend. I'll tell you all about it when I post the pics.

The other thing I wanted to say is I love Christmas music. It's hard for me to hear it before Thanksgiving, but now I'm getting my fill. My co-worker mentioned that she had some random song stuck in her head this morning. I told her I had "Jingle Bells" in my head. She laughed. I really do love it. I tried to watch the lighting of the tree at Rockerfeller center last night, but Erik want to sing karaoke, so guess which one won? The karaoke of course. Thankfully there are a few Christmas songs there. We rocked it out though for nearly an hour and had such a fun time. I'm borrowing it fromMaria, but I might have to invest in one soon. Anyway, happy listening (my car radio is tuned to 103.5 constantly now! YAY!).
