~I did it! I faced the holiday madness alone with the three youngsters. There really was no other option, as today is Friday and we leave for Oma and Opa's on Tuesday. McClaine ate half a pack of gum (the big packs and he swallowed all of it), Audrey ate food completely inappropriate for a one year old and Avery told our life story to 6 strangers who really didn't care. But I made it through two 30 minute car rides, a trip to Hobby Lobby, a trip to Target, three stops at public bathrooms and an incredibly long line at Chic-Fil-A.
~My Christmas Tree, that was so masterfully decorated, now only has 30% of its decor on it. The rest is scattered throughout the house.
~I am hosting a Blogarita Bash at my house after the New Year, more details to come.
~If you haven't entered my Blog Makeover Giveaway, do it! Especially all my friends IRL (in real life) that have blogs that need a little touch up, don't hurt my feelings... You have until 11:59 pm cst Monday.
~Will you please go by this blog, I just came across it and am overwhelmed by their circumstances, they could use some support.
~In lieu of ridiculous gifts for Christmas, please consider this AWESOME opportunity-

I have my Advent Conspiracy check all written out from our yard sale and various other things I've been selling all year. The problem? Church was canceled last week due to weather and may be tomorrow also! the Advent Conspiracy collection was supposed to be last week. I may end up sending my money to the church office. :(
LOL.... my tree is also decorated and 1/2 the ornaments spewed about the house. ;)
You are brave my friend...brave!
