Outside decorations are up....started inside. Will get tree next weekend. Finished my holiday shopping except for my dad because I have no clue on what to get him.
This week is filled with a few after school meetings...dr....and work xmas party on Friday.
I did most of my shopping online, which is pretty awesome! I just have a few more things to pick up in the stores. We got our tree up last weekend and our outside lights too!
This weekend we did a lot of yard work and watched the tree lighting downtown. I think I'm already ready for next weekend. Haha!
Hi! Our tree was up last weekend. This weekend was lovely though.
Friday Dh and I went on a bike ride/date to a great Spanish restaurant here.
Saturday we picked up some trader joe's junk food (Candy cane Jo-Jo's and caramels) and went to my Mom and Dad's to help my Mom put up their tree and decorations. I think I made my Mom's weekend by helping out. Later that night my BIL and his FI came over for dinner and to hang out. I haven't seen them in ages so it was nice. Sunday: Nothing. I laid on the sofa watching tv and reading all day. I got up once to take a shower. It was glorious.

Hello!!
Weekend was good. Highlights: Saturday--went to a neighborhood holiday festival. Ate really good food and got a buzz on by 7pm. Made a cute lil video of my foster pup to help her get adopted. Sunday--went on a lovely breakfast date with an Adrian Brody look-a-like. He already asked me out for a second date.
Tree....Um.....flame away but I am not putting one up. On tap for the week--work holiday party! Woot! And second date with Adrian Brody.
I finished Christmas shopping for my side of the family - woo hoooooo! I've got a pretty light load at work this week, and I'm taking Friday off since my parents will be in town for Thankmas and DRESS SHOPPING!

Weekend blew donkeys. But I made a teeny dent in the holiday gifts I'm making. Just need to complete the rest this week.
I'm looking forward to Friday and Saturday of this week. We have a friend staying with us those nights and Saturday we're having a teeny Hanukkah GTG at our place.
We bought our tree this weekend but since it was raining buckets all weekend it's still sitting outside drying out.
Baby Fuss picked out his own strand of purple lights at Target and so we are looking forward to putting those up outside this week. He loves Target so much, he was sitting in the shopping cart as we were going through the store telling everyone we passed, "We're looking for Christmas!" since they put all that shit in the back.
Otherwise it looks like a humdrum week except we will probably be putting up decorations gradually throughout the week.
Hola! This weekend was great. DD took a super long nap Saturday so I got a ton done around the house. Yesterday we all laid around and watched football. It was a nice relaxing day.
No tree yet. I think we'll go Saturday. H did buy a few mini pointsettias, tiny holly trees and a baby Christmas tree, so it's looking festive in here already. That and the nutcrackers on the mantle that never got put away from last year.
I'm here, on a quick lunch break. Weekend was OK. I was kind of knocked down this weekend and spent a lot of time laying around. Tree/decorations went up after Thanksgiving. We just get to sit back and enjoy them now. Hoping to find out about that damn promotion this week. We'll see. And I'm cleaning the house in preparation for my DD's 2nd birthday party this weekend!
I put a few things up. The wreath is up and a few sticky things on the window and there's a snowman flag in the flower bed outside.
We're taking DS to see Santa this coming Saturday morning and we'll go pick out a tree after that. Then the Christmas festivities will be in full swing in the Chirp house.
No Christmas cards yet. Crap. We have to do that this weekend.
I have a 4 day weekend coming up. Yay. No work for me on Thursday or Friday. Woot!!!
ETA: I just got a WNTW picture. I'm impressed with myself. There are boots involved.
Weekend was great! Spent most of Saturday afternoon shopping for H's BFF's wife's shower gift. Then we went to dinner with H, BFF and BFF's wife.
Then yesterday was her shower (really nice... lowkey, good restaurant). Then H and I went out to get our tree and to have tasty hot dogs. The tree isn't decorated yet... so I think I'll be doing that tonight!
We got our tree this weekend. E was really excited about the whole thing, and as we drove away, asked, "Hey guys ... are we going to go get another tree now?"
The week is looking pretty good. Work is somewhat under control for a change, and I'm taking Friday off to do some Christmas shopping and just chill. Then I'll probably be working all weekend at the store.

Surprisingly, the weekend went pretty well. H decided to surprise me with a dinner date. I'm still trying to figure out the motivation behind it, but I did enjoy it.
Sunday, I tried to take DS to a bell choir concert, but he had spent the morning with his grandparents and hadn't had a nap. The bedtime busies got him about half way through, so we ended up leaving early. then he fell asleep on the way home and wouldn't even get up to eat dinner. He ended up sleeping until about 3 am.
