No More Stash

OK - I'm back, I know all of my faithful readers are all happy about that (Mom, Davis). It's been over 2 months since my last post. Better make this one a good one. Winter is FINALLY here, I was counting down the days. Looking at a forecast of 40's, 50's is wonderful! We've had a few days of snow, I'm waiting for Dan to go out town before we get the 2 feet that I will have to shovel. My friend Craig came over last year to help me shovel out of my house, he shows up and starts making fun of my little red shovel I'd been using to clear my drive. It's great - little, light, red - made just for me. He harrassed me the whole time we were there, but then asked to use the little guy at the end....he fell in love. He told me last month he went over to Ace and picked a little red truck up for himself.

We went to my parent's house in both October and November. October we went for the balloon fiesta, and we celebrated Heidi's 30th with an 80's party at our house. It was hilarious. My husband shaved the beard of his goatee and gave himself a stash - he wore a sweet 80's white jumpsuit to go along with it. He was the hit of the party. He decided to bag his goatee after that party and Lane can no longer call him 'hairy dan'. Hartley's outfit was a cross between Peter Pan and 80's rocker - his hair is long now so he had it in a ponytail, I about fell over when i saw him! The rest of us looked goofy and rockin 80's - we did a lip sync with 80's music - livin on a prayer rocked the house. 2nd trip was for thanksgiving, where we also celebrated Christmas. It was the usual family chaos at the house, but we had a great time playing games, exchanging gifts, cheering on the lobos, and eating great food!

This weekend is all about Christmas - decorations and shopping galore! If you tell me what you want for Christmas, I'll buy you something - promise promise.
