Post Christmas Update

Hello everyone, I hope you all had a very merry Christmas this year and enjoyed your time off. It seems like we just got off work and now it's time to head back. :-( I always hate this part and the part putting all the decorations back up. Plus, every year I have even more to add to the decorations because I always go shopping with mom, Kim and my cousin to hit all the "After Christmas Sales". I will add I was a little irritated with them this year because I had to hit Target with no backup. I even called Kim and yelled HELP into the phone. I was able to actually get everything I wanted, but since mom's house burned, she's having to start all over and I had to get stuff for her too. Here I am with one shopping cart, a boxed snowman and buck, wrapping paper hanging on one side, small reindeer jammed in on the other, a basket with other stuff packed underneath,two wreaths, boxed lights and a nutcracker sitting in the child seat. On top of that, I had a little altercation with this lady claiming that I took the last buck. Sorry, I got there first. I told the cashier two times that it wasn't all mine. I got everything I went for, plus more, so that's all that matters. I had to tell the story in case my mom and sister didn't hear it enough. I'm just making sure they knew what I went through. :-)

More exciting news! Eric and Laura are now engaged!! Yay!! We are SO happy for them. I don't know of two people more perfect for each other. We can't wait for the wedding! I'm ending the post with some pictures from Christmas. Also, check out the picture of us with max from 2005 to now!
