Well, it's that time again....



I confess:

         
  •          Sometimes, when shopping, if I see a really cute baby outfit I will buy it....for our future children.
  •          NO I'M NOT PREGNANT! .
  •          I got so sick of people at work asking me if I was pregnant or if I was "feeling fat because of the baby" that I had the Charge Nurse put in the beginning of the shift safety briefing that, I WAS NOT and to PLEASE stop asking me.
  •          I got my first pair of leggings this week....UM I LOVE THEM. You can eat a huge meal and not get the 'my pants are too tight' feeling. =)
  •          I kind of am obsessed with the tv show "Toddlers and Tiaras"....Its like a train wreck you can't look away from. 
  •          I am having a hard time getting Christmas put away...as in, I haven't even started. 
  •          I don't think I will even think of getting it put away for another week....
  •          I really LOVE the snow and I am so happy that it has been dumping the snow for the last few days!


Well, that's all I can think of at the moment....Have a great weekend!

Christmas Festivites

*Sigh* December was such a deliciously busy month.
It was full of SHOPPING and LIGHTS and FAMILY and FOOD and PRESENTS!

Here are some HIGHLIGHTS:

Jeff and I met my parents and my niece and nephew at Temple Square. 
Little Rylie was so CUTE! She just wanted to stay and look at the Baby Jesus all night.
She really had a great time looking at all the Christmas lights.




On Christmas Eve, we had a great Norwegian Christmas at my parents house. 
We ate great food and had fun opening presents. 




Later that night we went to Jeff's nieces birthday party. Addy and Lizzy turned 4!



Christmas morning came bright and early at 10:45 am. Yep, we slept in. SO NICE.
We opened all our presents and Jeff totally spoiled me! 
He was very sneaky about it too!




The rest of that day was full of more presents and food at both of our parent's homes.
Such a wonderful Christmas. Too bad it was over so fast.

Looks like NEW

I finished my antique table! 





Recently, while watching the show Color Splash on the HGTV channel, I got the idea to paint an antique piece of furniture a bright color. It makes your antique hand-me-downs instantly NEW!
Of course you don't have to paint them bright colors, any coat of new paint will do the trick, but bright colors are HAPPY!
So, I guess you could say, I have successfully taken on a new hobby.

I saw this on another blog and thought, 'FUN!'





I confess:

  •       I am in love with Dreyer's Loaded Butterfinger ice cream.... IN LOVE!
  •        I have a huge potty mouth when driving.
  •        I drink WAY more Diet Coke than I do water. Seriously.
  •        I pretty much only drink water when I am at work.
  •        I adore working with sick babies. The parents....not so much.
  •        This past summer I picked up the horrible habit of ...picking my nose. YIKES! I know, but I hate booger scabs.
  •       I have totally gone overboard on Christmas presents for Jeff. I can't help it! I don't know what it is about this time of year, but it makes me want to buy EVERYTHING! Plus he is super easy to shop for...and I like dressing him.
  •     When I am at stop lights I check FB on my iPhone.... Addict? Maybe.
  •       I thinking shopping for clothes should count as a work out.
  •       When I was dating, Harry Potter was my go-to make-out movie....


I think that will do for now....don't want to confess everything at once. ;-)
