Hey again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lets do it again you lil cupcakes!!!!


Tell me this time, things you love to do during the Holidays....(Christmas if you celebrate it) Tell me what you look forward to, tell me your favorite foods during that time, your best memory and why...Tell me how the holidays are special for you....Do you watch the Macys Parade?

My favorite thing during the Holdays, is putting up my Christmas tree and decorations right after Thanksgiving.....I love to do all my own Christmas candies and cookies and I love going to different towns and seeing all the holiday lights and decorations, I love spending time with my doggies and husband just enjoying evenings by the tree. I love the smell of the air, I love the snow, if we are lucky enough to get it on Christmas...And I love Christmas eve!

Please share yours with me!

liltiger, can I come over? I love eggnog!

I used to like to make a gingerbread house - from scratch. Some of them turned out hillarious!!

I still have a Christmas story book we used to read to the kids.

And when I was little, we had Readers' Digest books with Christmas carols in them, and we went caroling in the neighborhood. And my mom used to make "snow" with ivory soap detergent flakes and water. I still like that smell.

lil, you are completely out of control.

I love to give gifts. Especially to my nephew who is 3 and is just so fun. I also am anticipating this Christmas as that is when we are planning to announce the big news to our families.

have any of you seen the movie " A Christmas Story"? Well that movie runs on TBS like for 24 hours straight beginning on Christmas Eve, well I am like 2 hours away from the place where that movie was originally filmed...My hubby and I went there and toured that house last Christmas Eve, it was awesome, I love that movie!

I absolutely love Christmas. I love the smell of pine from the fresh tree. I put like a gazillion lights on it. I bake all sorts of cookies to give out in pretty little tins and when it gets closer to Christmas we ride around and look at Christmas lights. Christmas eve we read the "The night before Christmas" and "The Polar Express" put out cookiesa/milk and reindeer food(rolled oatmeal balls covered with glitter)and wait for Santa.

Not too many good memories of when I was growing up. But have some with my kids. We made an entire snow family watching a snow tv, and snow turtles that we colored green.

Best part of a christmas story is the "leg lamp" scene. I always howl at that part.

If you make it past Thanksgiving, you get a whole 'nother year... that's a saying in our family as most people die in the fall and my grandmother and greatgrandmother died on Thanksgiving Days, each in years that it fell on Nov. 26th... so Thanksgiving is a bittersweet holiday.

Christmas is a bit lonely. The huge family get together is always the weekend before so it is like it is over before it gets here... my daughter comes over... this year, we are having a party on Christmas eve, inviting people who have no where to go.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
