After church last night, we went over to my son's house to spend the night.
I figured that my dad could use a little break!
The funny thing is, he has been having a blast.
My dad has really enjoyed having the kids around.
He was actually upset when I told him that we would be spending the night at Matt's.
Matt's wife, Heather really has the Christmas spirit. The entire place is lit up with festive lights - inside and out! It's beautiful.
On top of that, we got to watch a Charlie Brown Christmas. Yeah!
You can't get any better than that.
We snacked on a variety of crackers and drank hot cocoa.
I called my husband and son in Alaska to tell them goodnight and to say our goodnight prayer. (Well, my good night prayer - their supper time prayer I guess. There is four hours difference.)
It was a nice night.
How was your Sunday?
Oh yeah, I am extending our Thanksgiving sale.

Country Music = 5 1/2"!
Posted on Monday, December 1, 2008 at 09:01 by Miki - 1 Comments - Post Comment - Link
Are you a little confused with the title?
Let me explain.
I'VE LOST 5 1/2" IN 2 WEEKS BY LISTENING TO COUNTRY MUSIC!!!
Nov. 17 I started working out....more!
I had been doing light weights Monday, Wednesdays & Fridays & then on Tuesdays & Thursdays I would go to the gym & walk on the treadmill for 30 minutes. That worked well until I quit going to the gym & walking. I put back on all the inches that I lost! Well, then I decided to just walk outside around my block. I think I did that once before it got too cold. Hmmm....what to do? Our gym membership is over! So I decided to continue with the weight lifting on Mon., Wed., & Fri. but to also do my stepper for a half hour EACH day! Yes, that's 5 days a week! Let me tell ya, the first day I thought that I was going to throw up! I tried doing the stepper & watching my Little House series but that didn't work very well b/c I just couldn't follow the story while exercising. Then I decided to do the stepper while watching CMT. That's the ticket! It's working! Music just makes everything easier! It also helps to see all those skinny women singers. Kind of motivates you! I want to be skinny too! ~Smile~
So I lose inches but I don't lose weight! One out of 2 isn't bad! As long as the body gets smaller! I don't lose weight b/c I like to eat! I get very agitated when I have to give up the food that I like to eat. ~Smile~ I would rather exercise than watch what I eat! I only have to do that ONCE a day! lol!
Keep moving those bodies ladies!
A busy week ahead....

The week ahead is filled with activities....but fun activities!!!
We are home today...doing our school work and enjoying the bit of snow that has fallen. Tomorrow is my town day...I'm meeting two different ladies to sell them some of our "stuff". I will be so happy to have this stuff sold!!! Then it's off to Wal Mart to return something I bought on Friday, and do a bit of Christmas shopping. Then it's time for my Mom's night out!! It's our Christmas party...we'll celebrate with a good meal, great friends and a round of Dirty Santa!
Wednesday, we're "watching" a friend's BIL. He's mentally at the age of about 5, but is over 50 years old. They are going to the public school to teach an abstinence program (so proud of them!!). When they come to pick him up, we're headed for our milk run. I'm really looking forward to getting milk this week. The gal and her husband we buy milk from moved into a new rental home, and out of her parents' home this past weekend. We have a gift for her and can't wait to give it to her!
Thursday...at this moment, looks like we'll be home as usual that day. :)
Friday is our homeschool group's Christmas craft party. I actually have chosen my craft already! Yeah, me!
Saturday, we're headed to town to see Handel's Messiah at a local church. We've never seen this and are really looking forward to it!
Sunday, is a Christmas parade in town. We watched our little town's parade yesterday....can you tell we LOVE parades?!
So, that's our week....busy, but fun!
We bought our tree yesterday. And brought home a bag full of trimmings to decorate with. Yep, it helps to be married to someone who works there... 
I think we'll get it put up tonight, provided we get some other decorating done today. We have a TON of boxes of decorations...and I do mean a ton....that need to be unloaded and taken back to the attic so we can move around in there! The living room is small...and the boxes just make it feel smaller.
Next week doesn't look as busy...that may be the week we get started on cookies. I also am making a cake for a friend of mine for her grandson's baptism later this month. I need to get her approval on the design.
Lots to do, lots to do...but I just love the holidays....only wish the season lasted longer...
I'm off to make some hot chocolate for my red nosed babes who've been outside trying to play in the tiny bit of snow that fell this morning...
Have a blessed day!!

 How exciting! Here we are, just 24 days away from that blessed holiday... Christmas! And what did we wake up to this morning? SNOW! Yes, if you can believe it, it was snowing here. No it did not last long, but for those of us around these parts it was really exciting! Especially the children. Abram rushed to the window and then ran to his room, put on at least 4-5 shirts and 3 pairs of pants and his overalls on over everything... he looks so chunky because of all the clothes. It was really cute.
I have been sick most of the weekend, I got sick after our party Saturday night and have been sickly since. I feel MUCH better today, but am still quite weak from the sickness.
I have much to catch up on around here, so I must tarry. I hope you all have a wonderful week.

“I want to know one thing,” said John Wesley, “—the way to heaven: how to land safe on that happy shore. God himself has condescended to teach the way. He hath written it down in a book. O give me that book! At any price, give me the book of God! I have it: here is knowledge enough for me. Let me be a man of one book.”
