Christmas Day

It's Christmas Day-Family Force 5

The count down is over, Christmas is here! For unto us a child is born...
Happy Birthday Jesus!

One

Muppet Christmas Carol - One More Sleep Til' Christmas

Our tree is done!

Two

What Child Is This - Mercy Me

Our tree is almost decorated. We cut is a little close this year, seeing as we only have two days left, but our creativity sometimes takes longer then your average tree decorating person. Mom and I are going out this afternoon to gather the finishing touches. It will be beautiful.

Three

David Crowder Band - Feliz Navidad

Four

Emery- Jesus Gave Us Christmas

Five

I want a hippopotamus for christmas.

Six

This Is Christmas - Kutless

We went yesterday and got our Christmas tree. It took longer to tie it to the roof of the van than it did to pick it out. It was the first one we saw. We got it home and it took less time to set it up than it did to tie it to the van. It is a small little thing but as far as trees go its pretty adorable.

Seven

Dave Barnes-Very Merry Christmas. I got behind on my count down so I hope that I'm on the right day. I should get it right so I don't miss Christmas. That would be bad.

Eight

Point Of Grace - One King

Nine

Ten

Straight No Chaser - 12 Days of Christmas.

I now have sand bags in and snow tires on my car. I can go places again, like work.

Eleven

Other than our tree, all of our Christmas decorating is done. And I finished most of my shopping. I shopped on line again this year and I'm telling you its the only way to go. The only problem I'm having is where to hide the boxes.

Twelve

I am doing a count down to Christmas with my favorite Christmas songs of this year. I will begin the count down with Family Force 5, carol of the bells. I love there entire Christmas Album, the whole thing is my favorite. So here is number twelve or number one; which ever you would like to call it.

How Late is Too Late

I really was going to carve them. How long does a frozen pumpkin last? Will I be able to carve it in the spring? Will I remember that they are still there in the spring?

And Down Came the Snow

Lots and lots of snow.
I started this winter season with a positive attitude about snow. But after driving through a blinding snow storm (and I mean blinding), the kind where you have to drive five miles an hour and hope you don't die kind of snow storm that wasn't even supposed to be there. And doing another 180, this time on the high-way during said blinding snow storm. I don't have the same feelings about snow. To say it plainly I don't like it anymore. It has ( accept for right now) snowed none stop for a solid week. It does look nice but it makes it hard to go anywhere.
The sun came out today for awhile and made everything sparkly, but it is supposed to snow again tomorrow and the next day and the next day and the next day...

Toll Roads

On my five hour road trip to my uncle's for thanksgiving we had to drive on the turn pike which is a toll road. I found that I can't reach the ticket from my car. Not even if I unbuckle and hang out the window. I sure that this is just me and no one else has this problem and if they did they could open the door and get out to get it. It was embarrassing. Thankfully I had Spencer with me. He had to jump out of the car and run around to get the ticket. It must have been really funny to the car behind us; watching my arm fling around in a desperate attempt to make it grow longer. Which didn't work. I did better the second time.

Today I almost crashed my car into a guardrail.

It rained all night and snowed all morning. Wet snow. I was on my way to work. I don't really have to go to work because I work at home but I go for hotdog day. Spencer was with me. We stopped at family dollar (which is new in town) so Spencer could get me my late birthday present. It was a ice scarper, I didn't have one so I was happy. We were back on the road several miles out of town when it happened. A truck past and I began to slid. I believe I had put the breaks on slightly, it was a big truck. There is something about sliding sideways down the road that is NOT calming in anyway possible. I completed my slid with a perfect 180 ending up in the opposite lane pointing in the opposite direction. I did not hit the guardrail. Spencer thought it was awesome. I did not think it was awesome. I drove home going much slower than I was when I left. I did not go to work and I did not collected my $200 dollars. I will be staying home for the rest of the day.
