Christmas is only 3 days away!
I'm finally done with all my shopping! Yippie! Wayne said he still needs to get my stocking stuffers. Oh and I have to get the stuff for the cranberry jello. I have everything bought for Christmas eve dinner. except plates and silverware, but I think I might just pull out the good dishes. :) I can also just use our silverware and not have to spend the extra money on plastic. :)
I'm also excited because Wayne and I actually get to go see Twilight tonight...finally!! Ugh. My mom is going to watch the kids so we can go. So excited about going.

All Shook up!
Now I remember why I hate living in NW Indiana! Winter.
I was taking Sophia to school this morning. Since we were running a little late, I decided to take the freeway there. No biggie usually. Get on and take the next exit. I don't even have to actually get ON the freeway. So we're driving, almost to the exit. The car in front of me(about 3 car lengths) slows down to almost a stop. As I apply my brake, BAM I hit a patch of ice that sends the car spinning!!! OMG. I know I said OMG and Oh shit about a million times. Thank God we were at the low part of the exit and just spun into the grass. Also thankful that the car behind me was several car lengths back as well. So we didn't hit anything or get hit by anyone. Once we stopped spinning, I put the car in park for a few minutes. Calmed myself and Sophia down. Then waited for the cars to pass and proceeded to take Sophia to school.
Can you believe with all the traffic behind me, NO ONE STOPPED!!! Not a single F'n person!
I got Sophia to school, told her teacher's aide what happened. I nearly in tears while talking to her. She gave me a big hug and said that she would keep an extra eye on Sophia. :) I love Mrs Sherry. She's soo sweet.
I was also supposed to go to my chiro appt today but called and cancelled. I know I would have been way too tense for an adjustment today.
So now I'm too scared to drive anywhere. Mom wants me and Sophia to meet her for lunch, but I don't know. We'll see how I feel after Sophia gets home from school.

Went Christmas shoppig today! I got everything I wanted to get for Connor. I had to order his basketball hoop online though. The good thing is that I had a free shipping code from Toys r us so even with getting it shipped I still paid the same as I would in the store. I just couldn't find it ANYWHERE!!!
So now all I have left is Sabrina, Bill, my parents and Wayne! Yippie!! I even got stocking stuffers today. go me!
okay off to cook dinner.

It's been a long time....
Nothing really exciting to write about lately I guess. Just been busy trying to get shopping done, getting ready for thanksgiving(which was great, more later) and working.
I'm almost done with my Christmas shopping. For Sophia at least. I have a few things I still need to get Connor and then I have our respective grab bags. I also have my parents and my grandmother to buy for. I should have it all done by this time next week. Hopefully.
I've also started working on my Christmas cards. I had photo cards made from snapfish. I took the picture of the kids. They came out great!! I can't wait for everyone to get one. :)
Thanksgiving was great! We went out to my mom's on Wed night. Thurs morning we got up and started getting everything ready. Sophia was so excited that she was at up 6:30 with Grandma making the turkey. Grandma even let her have ICE CREAM for breakfast. I swear my mom does not know the word no with that girl!
We all had a great time. The guys did some skeet shooting. We played pool and hung out with my brother and my nephews. My sister, Michelle, had brought stuff for the kids to make ornaments. Sophia had a blast with that. Connor could care less. He was more interested in the dinosaurs Grandma got him.
Friday was nice because everyone that was there on Thurs were gone. So we just hung out and played cards and watched tv. We were supposed to go home Fri night but we started playing a game and next thing we knew, it was 9pm!! So we stayed another night.
The rest of the weekend was pretty uneventful. We put our Christmas tree up Sunday afternoon. It looks nice. We're going to put the other tree up downstairs and let the kids decorate it how they want to! :) That should be interesting. Sophia and I made ornaments for it. She wants to put multi colored lights on it and multicolored ball ornaments. Then we are going to string popcorn and cranberries to put on it! It will be nice because we're having Christmas eve here so we'll have a tree to decorate the basement during the party!
Well Sophia is waiting on me to watch a Christmas movie.
