Tis the Season...

Last night I went shopping for 6 hours.
I looked for HOURS for a gift for my dad that I never DID find.
I am STILL not done.

I love Christmas.
BUT, I want to be done shoppping now.

Brian McKnight - What's My Name

This is who we drove to Milwaukee to see one day, and home the next last year.
He ROCKS!!!

Ode To A Party Boot

Many of you remember these boots.
I recently brought them to the Goodwill.
Oh, I KNOW they are ugly beyond belief.
My children were beside themselves.
They began to love them after
Napoleon Dynamite.
I got nice Columbia boots last Christmas.
Their time had come.
They had served their purpose.
Luckily I was able to take a picture of them
So many good memories.

Angela's Birthday

Angela's birthday was yesterday.
Pearl Harbor Day.

43 years amazing!

We went out to Big Bowl in Edina last night for her celebration.

Her sisters, Beth and Jennifer and mom, Kathy.

We had fabulous food.

Back to Mom's house afterwards for

coffee, presents, cake, conversation and laughter.

When it got to be too late

Laughter about coasters

When things got SO late, Jennifer struggled to keep it all together.

The antique Swedish rolling pin became a thing of wonder.

Beth tried to help her out, but was unsuccessful.

Kathy had to come and straighten out the whole thing.

It is CORN!

Angela got great gifts, and really enjoyed her birthday this year.

There was also a VERY FUNNY incident regarding the song

MONY, MONY.

Kathy was able to clear up the lyrics

ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!

It really was as much fun as it looks!

George Clooney Congratulates Julia Roberts

This is so funny!

Last Night

I am struggling with getting my blog updated.

I want to do it, but by the time I get home I can't get on the computer.

It's a drag.

Last night I went to Grizzly's with Mary and Fiona!

We had a great time.

Angela came and joined us quite a bit later.

We got to know each other a bit more.

Quite a good time.

Enchanted Trailer

We saw this last night.
Cute.
Sappy but cute.
