I Should Have Known...

I went to grab the flyswatter I have tucked in the closet and oddly enough, it was gone.

Hmmmm...

I wonder where oh where could it be...

Sigh.

I Am Clark Griswold...

Since we moved into this old farmhouse, I have always put up a skinny Christmas tree. I love a skinny tree!

My hubs on the otherhand prefers just the opposite. (Gee, who would have thought?)
After 10 years, I have finally given in and agreed to put up our ginormous tree we had in our previous home.

Yes I've had to remove half the furniture in the livin' room, string 1200 lights as the rough branches scratched me to pieces and almost broke my neck standin' on a ladder to decorate it, but here it is.

So as my dear, sweet hubs enjoys the Griswold tree, I will enjoy mine...

♥ Merry Christmas Charlie Brown. ♥

Stan The Beaver In His First Action Packed Movie...

Yeah I know, but he thinks it's action packed. He doesn't have time for fancy stunts and that CGI stuff, he's got work to do.

Did I happen to mention I named him Stan? Yep, after my daddy.
Which is perfect because he was listenin' to Eddie Blazonczyk on his lil' beaver iPod while swimmin' around.

Let The Christmas Decoratin' Games Begin...

Now that we are up to our eyeballs full with turkey, it's officially time to decorate for Christmas! YaY!

First things first... Get the "Greetings" my daddy made (back in the 70's), up on the ol' barn.

Thank the good Lord above I have a hubs who is not afraid of heights because I break out in a cold sweat when I step up on the second rung.

I think what did it for me was when I was 14 and visitin' Canada. I went on what was known as the largest Ferris wheel on the North American continent. Who thinks up this stuff?!

As we started to reach the clouds I remember a Canada goose flew by and said "Wow!! You're really up there aren't ya, eh?"

Needless to say after that, I heard nothin' else but the screams comin' from my mouth as I hung on for dear life.

Come, Ye Thankful People, Come...

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Galatians 6:9

Wishin' you and your kinfolk a happy and blessed Thanksgivin'.

God bless.
