Happy December!!

And what nicer way to start December than with SNOW!! :) Yes we are getting our first flurries of the season today and tonight. Its is cold and gray outside but warm and festive inside! :)

Today is Monday, the first day in almost 2 1/2 weeks that things are supposed to go more "normal". Well Laci decided the hell with normal and is still asleep at 9:15. So she isnt getting a nap today. Christopher went back to school this morning, and I plan on working in the house today on steam cleaning the livingroom and working on December's calendar in the kitchen. We may go today and get our christmas tree too!! YAY! But we will see. I know we are going to finish the lights outside tonight for sure and I will post some new pictures tomorrow.
The weekend was a mad house. Thanksgiving went off without a hitch and I must say that I asked for a blessing at 5:00am and was truly given one. I went to Kmart for the Thanksgiving day sale and it turned out perfect. (except for the fact that I was there at 5:30am and they said they opened at 6 and it was really 7) I got to watch the Thanksgiving day parade with my kids and husband like I wanted. My mom was on time to my house for the 3pm dinner and I topped my day off with Brian's aunt Debra's famous much anticipated Carrot Cake...AND she sent me home with the rest of it!!! SCORE!!!! **drool**.
Friday was the so unholy Black Friday. I didnt actually need anything that was on sale this year (much to my dissapointment) and I went to target and got Joey his christmas gift and a few more good deals on toys for the kids that I didnt need. :P I was at home in bed by 7am. Joey helped me with the kids since Brian had to work and let me sleep til 9ish (broken sleep) and then I managed to stay up til 9:30 that night. I had hardly any voice left from pure exhaustion by the time I passed out next to christopher watching sponge bob!
Saturday I woke up feeling a lot better, but still tired, and took my brother David out for his 23rd birthday for lunch at Chilis. We had a nice time over Fajitas and enjoyed some solo time with each other. Happy Birthday again David, I am glad I could take you out. :) We then braved Toys r Us again and then went home.
Sunday was shopping for groceries and working on the lights in the yard in the cold rain. Last night was just getting ready for today.

Today is Monday...DECEMBER FIRST! Wow! How did that happen? Wasnt I *just* amazed that it was November? Or September? August? Counting down to our vacation in July? Where has 2008 gone? Oh well, better buckle down, get through December and prepare for the insane ride that will be 2009. It will be the biggest year in our family history here at the Pruitt house! eek!

Happy cyber monday all! :)
untill 12/02
