It's beginning to look a lot like CHRISTMAS!!!

I have two of my 3 trees up! I just couldn't wait until after Thanksgiving this year. I think not decorating last year has something to do with it. I just wasn't in the Christmas spirit last year until about one week before the big day. The only thing I hate about decorating is the mess!

I will be buying some Christmas storage totes this year when they go on sale. I'm tired of dealing with all the cardboard boxes!!!

Cameron has this thing with nutcrackers. You should have seen his eyes light up when he came across them in the box. I don't know what his fascination is with them, but he's liked them since he was about 2. There is a decorating store here that has a bunch of big ones and he loves to go over to them and just stare and play with the littler ones.

Well, on Friday I will be putting up another tree in our dining room. I can't wait for the decorating to be over!!

The CRAZY husband got his system!

I went and took some oatmeal, yogurt and coffee up to Michael on Tuesday morning. I hadn't heard from him since the night before so I was hoping all was well. When I arrived he was sitting next to the propane heater trying to keep warm. He ended up only sleeping for about an hour. We don't know what the temperature got to that night, but his car was frozen in the morning. Around 9:15 Circuit City came out and handed vouchers to the people waiting in line. He was for sure getting one. I could tell that he was pretty excited.

When the doors finally opened at 10:00 I was there with him. Man, those people went running through the doors to get one of the few controllers that they were selling and some games. Michael got one of the controllers and a game. I had to run off to get to work. When I got home Michael was playing with his new toy and didn't turn it off until around 8:30!

I'm sure there will be quite a bit of xbox playing this weekend since he is home now until Monday.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! We will be eating dinner at Shannon's house tomorrow! See you soon Shannon!

My husband is CRAZY!!!

Holy Heck...Michael is camped out in front of Circuit City right now to get his hands on the new Xbox 360 that comes out tomorrow! Circuit City is going to have 15 of them and he is #14 line. I had to take the propane heater, some coffee, the air mattress, and a scarf up to him. He had already packed his sleeping bag, down coat, gloves and other things with him. He also had me run to Game Crazy to pick up a few games for him. So, I bought 2 games that he will be able to play when he finally wakes up sometime tomorrow. Circuit City isn't opening until 10:00 tomorrow morning so I get to run more coffee up to him and some breakfast after I drop the little man off at school. What a boy won't do to get his toys! I hope he doesn't expect much for Christmas this year. We were supposed to be saving to go to Disneyland in March!
