HI Chris So glad that you had a great time shopping today. I am really tired tonight. We went out to the church this afternoon and John cleaned and I went through the flowers and picked out all the white ones. I put together the bouquets for January for the windows. So those will be ready when January comes around. I brought home the rest of the white flowers to see what kind of arrangements I can come up with. When we got home, I made my chocolate and peanut butter fudges. They are really good. I had to taste each of them. Then John wanted hot sausage sandwiches for dinner tonight so I made those. I made a cheeseball we can enjoy with crackers for the late football game tonight. Tomorrow I am going to make cheese dip and spinach dip to go with our special crackers. Snacks are always a must when we watch football. I am so glad that you and Holly are going to enjoy a movie tonight. John and I have sure been enjoying all the Christmas movies that have been on the Hallmark channels. We love all the classics and it is so much fun to watch them over and over each year. John said he is going to come to CT and steal your chocolate covered cherries that you bought. He loves those and I get him his own box every year. I can't eat them. They are to rich for me and they make me really sick. But he enjoys having them all to himself!! Have fun shopping at Walmart tomorrow. We will be going to church in the morning and then I think we are just going to relax and watch the games the rest of the day. You have a great day and tell Holly Merry Christmas from John and I. Hugs to you both--John Debbie Mya Abby and Allie

You did need a sleigh, lol. I think the lottery tickets on the wreaths are a wonderful ideal. Sounds like you had a great day! Enjoy the rest of the weekend & football! Hugs! Brooke
