That's right, all Christmas decor is up. Brandon asked this afternoon if we could put up the Christmas tree and I was like "sure" that's what I needed someone asking me to put it up. I was going to wait until after I got back from Cali, but since he asked and was going to help I was all for it. So down stairs we went to get the tree and put it up. Brandon put all the lights and ornaments on it as well. It was so fun, he did such a good time. After we got the tree up, he wanted to wrap some presents so he wrapped a few and put them under the tree. He's would have like to wrap his own, but sorry Brandon..you're going to have to wait.
Friday night Tom and I met Chris and Kristi at Houlihan's for a couple of Long Island Ice Tea's it was happy hour until 5:30 we we headed down about 4:30. We had some chicken nachos and calamari for dinner. My stomach started doing it's crazy pains, so we just went home, which is a good thing, it was nice to be home relaxing by 7:00. I tried staying awake to watch a movie, Avatar, but that didn't happen. I was so tired, it was a very long week at work.
Saturday was a good day, we got all the outdoor Christmas lights hung and ready to shine. They're actually on now, I know we should wait at least until after Thanksgiving but they are so pretty. Saturday night we made homemade loaded potato soup, its a Houlihan's recipe that a friend of mine found online and it was just as good. We made a double batch so we have extra. We sent a bowl home for Tom and Linda, hopefully they'll like it. I have one for my parents as well. After all the decorating was done, I decided to start my packing! I brought up my suitcase and started laying a few things out. I wrapped a couple of presents so I'm just about ready for my trip. I can't believe I leave on Friday already.
Well, Brandon asked to order a pizza so I did, Papa John's online, and I think the pizza is here.
