Christmas-ifying the Place

Well, if it looks like I made a few changes around here, I did.  Not quite done though.  I still have a little tweaking to do....but I'm not feeling so great this weekend.

My bff, Courtney and I had a girls' night last night since my hubby/her boyfriend (who needs to flippin pop the question already!) have Man Nights although I like to call them 'Boy Dates'.  We constantly fight with the boys on Date nights about going out for Mexican vs. going out for Pizza, so when we're out on our own we allllways go to the same place.  This great Mexican place in our town.  We loooooove it.  I don't even have to peak at the menu because I always get the same thing: chicken chimichanga with rice, no pico de gallo, extra guacamole and sour cream.  While driving back to our house, we passed the boys on the highway which resulted in a bit of a race.  We beat the boys home....muahahahahahaha.  I haven't been hiding the fact that I'm super ready for Christmas and have been wanting to start decorating already.  Courtney feels the sammmme way, but alas her Mom has refused to open a box until after Thanksgiving so we thought it would be fun to pull out all of my stuff and start decorating before the boys got there.  We were literally throwing stuff.

 Our tree skirt my sweet mommy made for us and new ornaments I picked up after Christmas last year.

 Court whipped out her rockin Christmas album on her phone...we blasted it.

The first thing Court went for was the tree.  Then we discovered half the string of lights was out...bouge.  And that's when I started feeling...ill.  

We couldn't do anymore with the tree, but we finished just about everything else.

 The saints stocking I made last year for Hubby, center snowman & green Christmas candle I got on sale after Christmas from Hobby Lobby & Walmart, and our Jones Soda bottles we toasted with when we got married.

After our night of fun was over, Hubby & I got ready for bed and watched snl....then at 12:54, our beloved cat, Link messed with the tree for the first time this year.  It'd only been up for 3 hours at this point and he'd already pulled it down, popped it in half, & knocked half the branches off.  Yay.

Hubby taught Sunday School on his own and I stayed home in bed all day...I did manage to get up to make a Coffeemate Peppermint Mocha latte drink thingy:

So, a full two weeks early our home is very close to being completely Christmas-ified.  sawweeet.
