Lots of lights

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...at least it is at our house. Brian, Braeden and I began decorating for Christmas this weekend. Our tree is up, lit and half decorated. (The bottom half, because Braeden did it all). We have lights on three banisters of stairs, lights on the shrubs, lights on the deck and around the door. It's looking quite beautiful!
We had Christmas movies playing on the TV all day yesterday. Hallmark had back to back movies, very fun. Brian gave me my Christmas present early. A new TV! It's a 46-inch, LCD Flat Panel and oh my gosh I LOVE IT! I cannot even begin to tell you how awesome it is and Bri hooked up surround sound so it's like having our very own theater!
Aside for some stocking stuffers and gifts for my grandparents, I think I'm already done all of my Christmas shopping. Some of the gifts are already wrapped and most of them are still in transit as I have done nearly all my shopping online this year. Now I can think about baking cookies and enjoying Christmas. This is our first Christmas in our new home AND as a complete family now that Brian and I are married.
In other news...
Braeden still isn't feeling very well and neither am I for that matter. But hopefully once the weather makes up its ever-changing mind, all the germs will die off with the frost and we'll start feeling better. His cough is still lingering and I know he's getting just as frustrated as me because he keeps asking me when his cold will go away.
My brother is moving back home to Delaware! He'll be home this coming weekend and I'm super psyched. He has been away for over a year now and I hate it. Having him nearby will be so wonderful for everyone. Braeden is very excited!
I almost broke the garbage disposal yesterday. Fortunately Brian was able to take it apart and get the aquarium gravel out from under the blade. Oy vey!
My Jeep window is slipping back into oblivion as the electric tape my Dad used to hold it up has finally decided it doesn't care to fight gravity anymore. So I'll be renting a car soon and taking the Jeep into the shop so it can be fixed. Figures. The lowest amount I think I'll be paying is $600...And of course this has to happen during the holiday season. At least I get paid on Friday.
I'd really like for Brian and I to take Brae to see a movie this week after work one night. I know it's not easy because we're tired but I really want to see Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium. Hmmm...how will I manage to pull that off?
Alright, back to work. Hope everyone had a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Jon would be so SO jealous if I told him about your TV. He drools over the TV section everytime we go to the store. It's all he wants. And pretty much all he's NOT going to get. Poor baby.
Heck, I'm even jealous and I live here! I'm glad you like your early Christmas present!
I like mine too! I'm typing this comment on it while you're laying next to me!!!
I hope we can make it to the movies this week...I'm craving some REAL movie theater popcorn!
Here's to our first Christmas together as a family!
Brian how cool are you to comment on your cute wife's blog! I don't think Jon knows how to comment, and even if he did he'd have to shrink WOW to do it, so that's not going to happen! :)
