I'm dreaming of a...

green Christmas! Well, it appears as though I spoke too soon. Last night it started to snow here in "winter paradise" and it is COLD! Luckily, there isn't that much snow, but the wind does blow something fierce down here, so that does not help at all. Justin and I are going to have to go out and pick up some winter coats, which neither of us have.



Last night was our ward Christmas Party. A good time was had by all. We had a delicious dinner, lovely entertainment, and of course a visit from SaNtA! Katelyn wasn't so sure about Santa this year, which is why I am in the picture. That's OK though. We are still trying to get to know people in our massive ward and a nice young family with three daughters was kind enough to sit by us. Kinda made having one child seem like a breeze as I watched the mom juggle 5 plates and their youngest one all at the same time.

Today I felt keenly aware of my frumpiness while at church. I really need a shopping spree! Everyone dresses so nice and almost professional like. I guess it would help more if I actually liked wearing dresses and skirts, but I don't. I made a huge mistake by wearing full nylons too and wanted to rip them from my body before Sacrament meeting was over. Never again! It's knee-highs all the way! Not only that, but I can't wear heels anymore. Anyway-someone please buy our house so I can go shopping!

I hear ya, sister. I cleaned my closet last week and tossed quite a few things. Some of it was 6-7 years old. Time for a shopping spree? :)
