Wordless Wednesday ~ Baby, It's Cold Outside

Ok so all morning long I have been walking around the house singing.  Baby, Is Snowing outside.  SO I changed the song around a little but still I have been singing all day.  I have wanted snow for so long now.  It just did not feel like December without snow.  Sweet sweet snow.

SO we got snow.  Not tons of snow but a lot.  Kids are on their way out to play in the snow so I have to go but wanted to share the pictures with you anyways.

I am so about Christmas it is not even funny. I love Christmas. I love to shop at Christmas, I love to shop for Christmas presents. So this year Hubby decided that we would do all our shopping at one time. Well I am one that shops all year long. I start the day after Christmas and by the time December rolls around all I have left to get is the big gifts. Well not this year.

So the other day Hubby asks, ” When are you going to start wrapping presents?” I was like what presents. DUHHH, you said not to do it all year long and for once I did what you said. So here we are 10 days before Christmas and I just started to buy Christmas presents.

I sat hubby down today and was like first look. Can I start shopping all year long again? YES. Can I start putting away that 100 a month extra for the big presents we buy in December? YES. Can You say “Tricia was right?” YES.

YES, YES, YES, I win. Finally.

Now growing up I did not understand why my Dad kept such a clean nice house all the time. So many other kids houses I went to the Moms kept the houses and the Dads did not. My Dad kept our house is ship shape as he would call it. We had weekly cleaning called swab the Deck. Yes weird but I knew what it meant. [Read more...]
