That’s it! I’m ready for Halloween to be over with (I HATE BEING SCARED!!!) and I’m ready for Thanksgiving to zoom right on by…bring on Christmas! I was watching the Early Show yesterday, and Aretha Franklin sang Hark the Herald Angels Sing. In the past, I’ve always waited for Thanksgiving day to break out the Christmas music and decorate the tree. But I’m ready for it now! (Don’t worry…won’t be decorating the tree anytime soon) but I think I’ll start listening to the Christmas tunes this weekend. I was at Target today and browsed their Christmas selection. Wow. Yay for the Holidays! (And by the way, is that not the CUTEST card you’ve seen at the top of my post? Click on the picture…it’ll hook you up with my sis-in-law’s shop, who is soon to be featured in a magazine!) Anyway, my Home Companion mag was waiting for me when I got home today; it’s also full of fun Christmassy things.
Welp, got my haircut and eyebrows waxed today at our local beauty school…was a whopping $13! (Thanks for the tip, Nicole!) My hair was so long, and I got it cut so short, that I was an inch shy of being able to donate it. I love it; it’s shorter than I was originally shooting for, but not bad at all. I’ll get Erick to take a pic soon. I feel like a much-cleaned-up woman.
Happy Halloween to those of you who actually enjoy it, haha!

Your sister-in-laws cards are beautiful! I’ve always loved that particular expression around Christmas time for some reason. Well, at least for the last 9 years or so!
I’m avoiding Christmas music because I’m so scared that I will get sick of it before Christmas! That would be awful! I bought the Casting Crowns Christmas CD and it’s about killing me waiting!
Can’t wait to see your new hair! I keep tossing the idea around of cutting mine…maybe when the baby’s born I’ll really want to. I never liked long hair, but I’m getting kind of attached. If I do it I hope to be able to donate it.
Unlike you…when I went to Target yesterday to buy Halloween candy I *freaked* when I saw the Christmas stuff.
Where does the time go?! How can this year be ending?!? Sigh…
Sounds like someone got a special fancy haircut! That’s a lot of inches!! I’ve had very long hair for a very long time…it’s not as long as it was a few years ago, but still quite long. I’m thinking of getting it lopped off. But them I panic.
Hope you’re having a nice weekend. Baby it IS (getting) cold outside! (Those cards are awesome!)
hehe…
) a little late, but still fun! <3
i was wanting to send the boys little box of goodies out, but i ended up finding a couple other little things, so i had to tear into it again, so i will ship it out monday.
Same here…ready for holiday time, but not coldness! 13 bucks?! WOW!
Hi there! I sort of surfed on here, but I feel exactly the same, I am SO excited for Christmas! My baby and I spent a nice afternoon baking and singing along to Christmas carols today
I’m in Canada, so we’ve passed Thanksgiving already
Once November 11th rolls by, we’re in the clear for Christmas!
