Here's a little cautionary tale about Internet shopping while on medication. I contracted some sort of devil virus following our trip to Florida. The kind of bug that propels you to lay awake night after night, fevering in a convulsing fit of unproductive coughing for 3+weeks straight. I finally got worried about driving my kids to school and falling asleep at the wheel, so I paid a visit to my doctor - no not Doctor Kolby - he makes me go see my high school friend, Dr. Fenstermaker. John hooked me up with the codeine caught syrup.
Anyway, a little back story stuff - Nana and Gramp had given us 6 Christmas village pieces earlier in the year. We thought it would be a good idea to check out EBay and add a new piece to our new (old) village each year. Blame it on the codeine, the lack of sleep, and my inexperience using EBay - I accidentally ordered over 20 village pieces. So much for adding a new one each year - our set is complete. I panicked every day when the mail man would show up with a new box. It's a good thing I have an understanding, forgiving husband. He may not call in prescriptions when I beg for them, but he doesn't make me feel bad when I spend a fortune on accident. I doubt he will ever let me live it down though!
December was pretty much a blur for me. I was so sick that we didn't set up decorations for Christmas until a couple of days before the Holiday.
I picked up this set of hand bells to use in Primary and the girls made it their mission to duet every Christmas song they could think of!
The snow did fall! Old-man Toods was greatly displeased with the weather. There's nothing worse than dragging your wiener through the white stuff on your multiple trips out to the bathroom. He's more of a summer dog!
Here's a rare site - Winnie getting crafty and June teaching Winnie to do anything. You have now seen the white whale!
Better late than never for this guy - our neighbors waited patiently for Buddy the Elf to pass through the seven layers of the candy cane forest, through the sea of swirly, twirly gum drops and walk through the Lincoln Tunnel to appear in our front-room window!
Finally, Kolby and I attended his work Christmas party. Nothing says Christmas like a sexy lady Sasquatch in holiday lingerie, right?
