Snow snow snow


He wasn't to happy to be outside once I was done snapping the pics. Poor guy!


We got that new car smell

Well we finally did it we got rid of my Pathfinder, YEA! The poor thing about had it. So we decided to go new, all our cars have all been older. So we bought a 2007 Subaru Outback. We got a decent deal with it, lifetime oil changes, cleaning, tire rotation and loaner car. It was a loaner car for the dealer so it was taken care of and only has 13000 miles on it. If you ever drove in teh Pathfinder you know THAT IT WAS REALLY LOUD. This car drives so quietly, I LOVE IT.

Black Friday indeed.....



So I wanted to go shopping this morning, but Derek had to work so I didn't want to go until the boys were up. So when Colton got up I went to start the car and because it was so frosted over I got out of the front to get into the back seat to get the scrapper, well the door shut, but not all the way.

Hmm ya it was locked. Great I have no extra keys because I was using my parents car. So after 45 min. of sticking things into the little crack in the corner of the door I found a long enough stick with just the right amount of curve to get to the window switch. Well I got it yea! My problem skills sure where put to the test today.

Well then I get down to the bottom of the hill and the place was covered in fog. The second picture is of this and right on the other side of the fog is a light, you just can't see it. Don't think I've seen that much fog around here, not like that.
So then the shopping began at around 9. I went to Kmart, Fred Meyer and walmart. Then I went to Safeway to get the boys some donuts (and get my self a tall white choc. mocha, yum). Came home till Wyatt took his nap then went out again, Target, Pier 1, Toys r us and Joanns. Now no I didn't buy stuff at all the stores, but with an online purchase at Old Navy at 5 am this morning I am almost done with my christmas shopping for the 4 boys. One more thing for Zach and Colton. YEA!
Ok I will be back with more pics later tomorrow we are heading to the tree farm with Tom and Ester.

Christmas To Do...

44 Days left till Christmas!

........but who's counting. Ummm me!

Ok so I am I have alot I want to get done before then, well some are even before December. So I thought to help remember to do what I want to get done I would post on here to help me remeber and maybe give some idea to others. Maybe if youare doing something different you can post a comment and show me what you are doing this season.








I would love to make this button tree.
This one was made by Tia B. over at 2 peas.







Here is an advent calendar I would like to make, not sure if I want to make it on the cookie sheet (like the one shown) or one that I saw made from a clipboard.









Then this holiday mini book. Thought it was so cute. You can see the rest of this at Kristina's gallery over at two peas.




So these are my magor things I want to do, but of course the usual cookies and candy to hand out to friends. Can't wait to hear what you all are going to make.
