Thursday Facts

Good morning and Happy Thursday!  Just one more day till Friday!  It will be a glorious day.  You know, around here we have been experiencing weather with highs in the upper 50s and lower 60s!  Forbes and I have been enjoying daily walks in the afternoon when he gets off work and it is simply nice not to have to bundle up when leaving the house for errands.  Can someone explain why we are traveling for Christmas when we have such amazing weather here?

Despite the warm and mild temps, it is all Christmas all the time.  Christmas shopping is in full swing.  I received a friendly little gift yesterday and needed to run to Target to buy supplies, so naturally I spent some leisurely time looking for gifts and rather left Target with just a sweater for myself (pictured above).  Shopping fail.  (Or success since it was only $6!)

I just love Gingerbread Houses so you get to see it again.

When the Gingerbread House is all set up, that is when you know it is Christmas around here!  That and my obscene need to bake cookies all day every day.

Yesterday's cookies brought to you by Chocolate Covered Katie.  These Hot Chocolate Cookies are rich and decadent! 

 Despite all the craziness in life over the last couple weeks, I managed to get all our Christmas Cards sent out yesterday!  Now that was a holiday success!

And because we are just sharing random facts today, I wanted to include this photo of my beautiful sister and her husband.

Finally after a year and a half her wedding photos are posted on Facebook.  Therefore my morning has not been very productive as I have sat gawking over the gorgeous bride and groom!  Love you two and can't wait to see you next week!

Have a wonderful day!
