MERRY CHRISTMAS (AGAIN)


For some reason I am really in the mood to blog....I cannot seem to stop. Believe me I have a million things to do and I cannot get off the computer. Maybe I am avoiding what I really should be doing. Just wanted to to share this with you...Merry Christmas from our Pink Eyes... (really sorta pink and green) Ha Ha...Better than the dreaded stomach flu though...

Merry Christmas



I had my blog all set up for a nice Christmas ending (the post with the pink and green ornaments) but this morning I felt the urge to vent about my husbands inability to keep up with his keys and messed up my order so I will do another Christmas post. I took this shot from one of my trees this morning. So again, I will say "MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL" (and again and again if I don't stop blogging)

HAVE YOU SEEN MY KEYS???


"HAVE YOU SEEN MY KEYS"??? This is the question that plagues my husband's life daily....My response is always the same "NO" The man cannot keep up with his keys. I need a tee shirt for him that reads "have you seen my keys". If anyone knows where I can get one please let me know.

I just want to wish everyone in the whole wide world a Happy Holiday Season...

Christmas Card Photo


Here is the photo I used for our Christmas cards this year. I cannot believe I found one where I deemed myself decent enough to mail out to the world.

Christmas Fun




I thought these were funny

Lulu's earrings


I saw these on Sippycups blog and thought they were precious so I had to get some for Lulu. They are for Valentines day and that will be around the time she can remove her starter earrings and sport her new ones. Perfect...

1922 FAMILY PHOTO



The great thing about the internet is that it allows you to find information in which you might have never found without it. I found these on Ancestry . The man pictured above is my great great grandfather. The photo was taken in 1922.

What did you have to eat????


My Thanksgiving table (notice new color on walls-I just love it) We had this table in the dining room and another in the kitchen. We had twelve people. Every year I get to use my Amber Depression Glass goblets. They just look like Thanksgiving. Love the fall colors.

From reading many of your blogs I noticed a huge variation of menus. Some sounded good, some sounded a bit strange. Here is what we had in the deep south....

Thanksgiving menu 2008

Fried turkey
Cornbread dressing
Mashed potatoes
Green beans and Corn
Sweet potatoes casserole
Baked macaroni and Cheese
Cole slaw

LILLY PULITZER WAREHOUSE SALE


I may be to far down south to make it to the sale BUT, I have a great friend who went today and gave me the play by play over the cell...Sounds like she got some great deals (with a few for me, of course). Lots of love to all who live close enough to attend-I'm so jealous.

WEDNESDAY ADDAMS AND BRAD PAISLEY




Many of you will remember my post on how my BFF looks like Wednesday Addams. Well, just the other night while watching the CMA awards I had another moment where it occurred to me that her husband looks just like Brad Paisley. So as a follow up on her story I posted a photo of her husband compared to Brad Paisley. This means Wednesday Addams is married to Brad Paisley. How cute....

SEE YA LATER LILLY


This weekend I finally had the chance to switch over my summer closet to the winter goods. It was a all day daunting task. It should have been done long before now but time was not on my side. In the children's playroom there is a extra closet so the off season stuff gets smashed into that closet. So for now the Lilly will sleep peacefully until the warm weather returns.

TWO HEADED TURTLE


Just had to share this pic. of a two headed turtle we saw on Lulu's field trip to a science center...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY BOY




Tuesday was baby boy's fourth birthday...Happy birthday to my sweet little boy...I will say he can make a preppy momma proud. He wanted a Volvo birthday cake and a Dyson vacc. for his birthday. He went to the mall for a build a bear and then to spend the afternoon with daddy at Volvo. We had a small family gathering where he got his Volvo cake and Dyson that is just like mommies. This thing was impossible to find and had to be purchased through eBay. We had a blast and he had a great birthday.

EXCUSE ME



Why does everyone including ABC news keep saying,

McCain Graciously Concedes to Obama, the Nation's First Black President

Half of his family was white, therefore making him multi racial. Not black not white but multi-racial.
