White Woes be Gone!

This past weekend I spent some time with Aunt Janice. It was great to see her but makes me realize how important my family is. I have a great family that is a cross of the tv show Parenthood and the movie My Big Fat Greek Wedding. I wouldn’t change them out as they’ve been there for me during some pretty big times. In fact one of the newest additions to the family may have won my heart. When I was in Beulah for a friend’s wedding, I changed clothes at Randy and Denise’s house. Well Kemma saw me in my bridesmaid dress and thought I was a princess. When I asked Ambour, her mother about it, she said that Kemma talked about the “Princess” for about 2 weeks! Ha! I knew that girl was ahead of her time. Am is curious how she will be with me at Christmas, I am thinking about wearing my bridesmaid dress just to make her day…afterall don’t they always say you can wear those dresses again?

Ladies Night Out is coming up next week and we are in the final stretch for details including getting the map set and stuffing the stockings. We hope to have a ton of shoppers but I’m a little concerned as the “Banana Belt” of ND got dumped on this past weekend. I hate snow. The only thing that will get me through this winter is that I have a snowblower and an electric car starter. Now that I think about it, that’s the only thing that got me through the last winter. Ugh!

This week is Thanksgiving, I plan to go to Mom and Dad’s house to help them. Will be pretty quiet and low-key. From the last I heard we won’t even have a turkey…WHAT!

I talked with Tiffany the other day, she’s getting ready to go to Las Vegas and compete at a National Level for Miss Rodeo America. I wish her the best of luck and only wish more that I could be there to watch her compete. I had every intention of attending but life happened and I just can’t get away. So instead of being cool in Las Vegas, I’m being cool and having a Hanukkah Party. No, I’m not Jewish but I can appreciate another tradition and have a little fun. The party started because I hadn’t been able to get together with a group of friends that I regularly see and the only day we could schedule was Dec 2—Hanukkah. So why not make it more festive?
I’ll keep you posted…but it gives me something to look forward to. The other party I’m having is a Scentsy party. Scentsy is a wickless soy candle that has great scents and is safe. I figured it would be perfect before the holidays. If you'd like to order or know more...let me know.

With the snow covering everything, I realize that the holiday season is upon us. I have some gifts in mind but think that this holiday will sneak up on me. I think I need to get my Wishlist up on the blog. However, in December, I’m looking forward to spending some time relaxing with Mom and Dad. I think now is a perfect time to starting thinking about things and planning and dreaming!
