Things are starting to speed up here! Kristen's birthday party is fast approaching. I'm having the neighbors and some of her friends over on Saturday afternoon so I need to start planning. I can't believe next week is Thanksgiving - NO SCHOOL after Friday :-) I am not hosting this year so there isn't much to do for that.
The gym seems to be taking up all my time, although I don't know why as I'm only there for an hour and a half each morning, usually getting home by 10am! I didn't go this morning - Cheryl called just as I was leaving the house at 8.30 to say she'd been called out. She planned on going later about 11am, but I went for groceries and when I got back decided to get stuck in to housework. I want to tell myself it's ok to have a day off (from the gym) or even two days off a week.
I got the game room all cleaned up, dusted and vacuumed. Did 3 loads of laundry, put the laundry away, cleared up in the kitchen, swept the kitchen and hallway floors. At least I feel like I've accomplished something today.
We went over to Cheryl's on Saturday night. She'd bought some champagne to try that the store was having samples of :-) I had to take a couple of pictures (especially for you Nenna - we were wishing you were here).
Hope you're all having a great start to your week. I just realized why I want to decorate for Christmas so early. . . every time I turn on the tv there's a commercial on with Santa in it!! AND they're already showing Christmas movies on Hallmark channel!!!!!!

You and your hubby are so cute together. =) I know, I can't believe Thanksgiving is next week. I've been watching the xmas movies on Hallmark, ha!
Hope Kristen has a wonderful B-Day! Take pics, ok? xoxo ~Liz
Thanks for the reminder about the Hallmark channel. I love those sappy movies! Seriously!! Your party sounded fun...champagne really makes me silly, and it doesn't take much!! I do love it though. Great picture of you and your hubs!
Xo,

Denise, I love to hear about the things you do with Cheryl. You are so blessed to have such a lovely friend as a neighbor! Does Kristen have the entire week of Thanksgiving off from school?? That would be so nice! :)
I love a spot of bubbly. Have you tried Prosecco? It is my favourite. I used to be a cava drinker (I want to be a champagne only drinker,but sadly don't have endless pots of loot!), but now I would rather have Prosecco. More like champagne than cava, delicate and just gorgeous.
If you haven't tried it, put it on your list of drinks to try. Perfect for a celebration or just for a treat.
I bought Miracle on 34th St at the weekend. I had it on video but chucked it after we changed over to all dvd players (the realised we still had a video in the living room! doh!), I can't wait to watch it again.
got to go. Been in town for shoes, so now I have to play catch up!
have a fab day xx
Sounds like you're a busy gal! I've been trying to go to the gym, but I am only doing 2-3 days a week. You're doing awesome! That's great!
We are decorating for Christmas this coming weekend. I know it's a bit early, but that's when we have time, so that's when we're going to do it. I'm super excited!
Have a great day!
Life. It's good for you and I love that photo of you and your hubby.
Yes, I've noticed the Christmas movies on Hallmark too! I'm decorating this weekend. I can't wait!
Thank you for catching the error on my blog entry. I went back to see what I had done wrong and laughed!
Wow, Kristen is turning 11....that's amazing. How the years fly past so fast.So what theme will her party be?
That is impressive, all those gym visits...good on you.Just keep on keeping on because you will see results soon....not that you look like you need to lose any though, you always look terrific. ;)((((hugs)))
Hi Denise, Yes, the mesh is really stiff. It is wide and a little hard to work with. However, once you start working with it it gets easier to handle.
I love that candy cane arrangement you posted below! Might have to copy that idea! Kristen
