This was one busy weekend and I am exhausted.
We got family piccies taken on Saturday by a local photographer. We were going to do the matching cheesy Christmas sweaters (as it would aggravate a few people I'm sure!) but didn't. The girls were quite adamant about what they wanted to wear - stripey dresses with cowboy boots. So cute! Anyway, it'll be a week before we get the pics back and I'll see if I can get a few posted before we release them to the world! Mind you Thanksgiving is Thursday and we're off to Bryson City, NC to spend the day with Amber and her family before riding the Polar Express on Friday. So excited!
And before you think that I'm too crazy you need to know how much I love Christmas! Yes, the Christmas tree is up and decorated. Both fire place mantels are decorated and there's assorted spots around the house all decked out too. I will post some photos soon but am far too knackered right now to go around and take piccies.
All that is left to be done is the rest of the lights outside (but we're not so sure how to get to the top of the house to string the lights), decorate the balusters on the two front doors and the back deck and then the office balcony needs to be done. That's next weekend though as we are done for today!
Storm has been making sausages (in between helping me with holding things up) and boy they are tasty. He's planning on catering the Christmas party with everything he is making. We'll see but he's definitely on his way with the sweet Italian and Cajun spiced snags. Yummo. (He's trying hand at salami tonight - I'll let you know how that goes!)
Sorry, must dash but don't know how to sleep after watching the latest episode of "The Walking Dead". I am so amped and cannot wait for next week's episode. So addicted! It even ranks higher than Sons of Anarchy now.
Yes, my name is Nichole and I am a Christmas and Walking Dead addict!
