Welcome December

It is already December and only 23 days til Christmas!! So exciting! I love Christmas time...the joy, lights/decorations, food, family/friends and the meaning behind Christmas. We had a great Thanksgiving last week and got to spend some time with family. We only had one get together on Thanksgiving day this year so it was more relaxed and we even had time to watch The Elf that night. We LOVE that movie!!! Seriously it is a must to watch around Christmas time. On Thanksgiving we ate lunch, played games, talked and looked at black friday advertisements. haha. My family likes to go shopping that day. I debated and did end up going too, and it really wasn't that bad. I got some good deals and even got a Dyson vacuum. Exciting!! I have wanted one for a while now. Our old vaccum Jarod had a couple years before we were even married and it had no sucking power. Well, we tried the new vacuum out right away and I was amazed at how much better it was!! I love it:) 

This past week-end I had to work and this week my parents and I went to French Lick for part of the day. My mom has been wanting to walk through the hotels and look at the Christmas decorations and I was all up for it! We walked through both of the hotels and I have to say they are both very pretty. It was neat looking at the pictures they had before they restored the hotels. Can you imagine if they would have never restored them?! They are such amazing buildings. We did go in the casino for about 15 whole minutes. haha. I am not a gambler but we mostly looked around. I think my mom spent $3. She said she likes pulling the handle...oh mom;)

Mom holding her nose. The sulfur well smelled like rotten eggs. That will wake you up!

Other than that I work the next two days and I don't know what we have planned for this week-end. After going to French Lick I would like to go see their show "It's A Wonderful Life".  I dunno though...don't know if Jarod will like it. We will have to see.

Take care and stay dry today!!
