So, did you all wear your stretchy pants at Thanksgiving? Darn that Jenny Craig! She wouldn't allow me to gorge myself into a semi food-induced coma like a normal person. I mean, you would think that Ms. Craig herself were stalking me the whole day. I mean, I had some serious restraint going on there! All of this to say that today is weigh-in day and, although I did well with my temptation, I still fear the scale. That horrible white piece of metal evil! I guess we will get a verdict here in about 5 hours...GULP!
Enough about that...lots to cover, so here is the Cliff's Notes version...and don't act like you don't know what Cliff's Notes are or that you didn't use them...I only wish they had them for more helpful things like cleaning, or cooking, or raising children...I digress...
Thanksgiving was great. The food was delish (what I got to eat anyway), our family had a great time, weather was AMAZING! The kids played outside all afternoon and we really enjoyed not having to listed to the moaning and yelling from our "guys" watching the football game with their bloated bellies.
My house is in mid-transformation for the holidays. No, I am not one of those people that throw everything up Thanksgiving night (I wish I were, but I am not). I string it out for at least a few weeks, then take it right down after New Years and wonder why I spend so many precious waking hours decking my halls with boughs of holly, fa la la la la la la la la la...It sure is purdy though!
I am still trying to figure out some fun little crafts and goodies to make over the next few weeks with my babies. That is my pre-New Year's resolution. Spend more time with my kids and less time doing everything else that doesn't really matter (see last entry for more on my small epiphany).
Well, when my halls are decked, I will post some pics. I am sure that BH&G will be ringing my doorbell. HA!
Blessings my peeps!
P.S. We all sat last night and watched this flick. Wouldn't you give anything to be a kid again...well, for one night anyway...

Hey Jenn. I finally got the link to your blog and etsy site from Michelle. Can't wait to read all your archives. I love doing that when I find a new blog!
I'm ready for the 24 hour A Christmas Story marathon to start running.
"OH FUUUUUUUUDGE!"
I am glad to hear you had a great Thanksgiving! And you are so right about what you said regarding spending all this time decorating only to take it all down again! I had that little thought yesterday, but then again it IS so much fun to do and so pretty when it's done!
I hope you have a great weekend! :)
It's begining to look alot Christmas! Please stop by www.raspberrylemonadeandmore.blogsot.com we have new giveaway we are looking for a favorite Peanut Butter Sandwich!
I watched that one, too! Such a great Christmas movie. And I have to say, if that Jenny lady followed me around on TG Day saying what I can and can't eat, I'd punch her! You are probably healthier than me though. Stick with it!
