Thank you, thank you

Thanksgiving week was great.., another wonderful holiday has come and past. I was so busy with work (online retailer=busy time of the year) that now that cyber Monday is almost over, I can breath.

We had a great vacation with family.. You know the usual fun, laughs and LOTS if food. I'm still recovering.

I got our Christmas decorations out yesterday. I am still trying to figure out where to put everything. Being that this is our first Christmas in our home I feel lost! I was so use to decorating my moms that starting over is stressful but fun. I get to make it my own finally. I realized though that I didn't (notice past tense, bc I did some shopping on my lunch break today) have much Christmas decor. I still have alot to go but it's beginning to look alot like Christmas here 😊

I am so excited for this holiday season. The hubs and I finally get to start making our own traditions, and I have a few in mind already. I'm just so excited!

My mother and I went out on Friday shopping, I know some of you are thinking we're crazy. But we have fun! And we do get some great deals because I totally Preplan our trip to the T with extra coupons on top of savings! I got probably 3/4 of my Christmas shopping done... Whoop whoop!

I should have a project that Ryan and I have been working on complete by this weekend so I can post some pictures!

Happy Monday!

Weekend activities...

Here I am sitting at the dentist... Not for me though, for Ryan. He is hating me right now for making him go, he just lovvvess the dentist :)

Oh well.

Last night we went and saw the last movie of the Twilight saga, breaking dawn part 2. Don't worry, I'm not going to be a spoiler, but it was great. Now, I'm sad that the movies are over... So sad. If you're not a fan and are sitting there thinking how pathetic I am... Think away... I'm still sad.

Today I hope to continue on a house project I'm working on.. At least get it half done. Ill be sure to show you it once I'm done. It's of course a project I got the idea from Pinterest, god I love that website. Addicting to say the least, but I've made so many cute things from it! I actually have two projects in the works now that I think about it that originate from Pinterest.

As the holidays approach I am getting so excited to be able to spend this holiday season with my husband in our new home. Specifically, I can't wait to decorate and start making traditions!! So so excited! I already have some ideas in the works ;) are there any traditions that you do that are totally awesome? I'd love to hear them.

So many things to look forward to this holiday season...

Back to life...

Hi there... Remember me?

Yep, still here, still breathing. Although somedays I seem to run around so much I can't catch my breath.

But, I'm back in action, and will hopefully continue to write about my oh so awesome and sometimes boring life.

I feel like my days are filled with stuff, just stuff. Sometimes this stuff is mere work and projects and nothing. Hopefully I can give myself a few minutes of each day to continue to write about my days, because I do enjoy it.

Well... To sum up my last month could take a few days but in short.... Been working on house projects (of course) got a kitty named Skeeter, had family get together with oh so funny pie eating contest, and that's it. So, don't worry, you haven't missed much!

I'll post some pics below. Tomorrow I'm going to see the last twilight (sigh) think what you wish, but I can't wait to see it but I don't want it to end!

Have a great weekend folks.... I'm glad I'm back.
