Elf on a Shelf

Love hearing that so many are busting out their Elf of a Shelf....2 in Austin. 1 in Point. 1 in Savannah. 1 in McKinney Ours will be doing the 12 Days of Christmas for Chelsey and Colby this year. They do not know it yet....but he is going to leave them hints everyday, starting 12 Days before Christmas. They have to find him first....then they will get a small gift. It's their last Christmas, that I still have a "sort of" hold on them, so we may as well do something fun. Will update as we get closer. Still need to post Senior Pictures. Hopefully I can in the next few days.

Off to watch tv. Happy almost hump day to all. And best yet month end for me!

P.S. Thanks for the call today Mom, glad Dad is doing well. Love you both!

Another chapter ends...

Henderson closed another chapter of Chelsey and Colby's Senior Year tonight.....sad that the 2011 football season has now ended. Making it to Round 3 with a final record of 12-1 is no small task. Love those boys. Friday Night Lights is sure entertaining!

Night night...

Great day!

Just got home...had a great Thanksgiving. I cooked two things and had very little mess to clean up. Still miss the big house and having Ashley and the boys over to cook and drink a little vodka...

Had a great time as always in Alba. Thanks for hosting Jeannine and Kenneth! Stopped by Mary and judy's on the way home...too full to eat there. Home now in my pj's with Tank in my lap and Danny controlling the remote.

Hope your feeling better Dad. Love you Mom. Great to see you Carla and Paul.

Love to all,
Pam

A short week!

The kids are out of school this week, and so far have enjoyed running the roads.... Friday night is football in Mesquite against Henderson. Thursday Chelsey and I will make a run to Alba to see everyone. Colby has work out and Danny is going with him to watch. I am taking my floating holiday Friday....have to soak up all the football I can with Colby. I told him the other night that when they lose, "all we have is memories, and I am NOT ready for that yet".

Off to watch tv and let my sleeping pills take effect. Fighting a stuffy head, so I hope to sleep good and sleep it away!

Just a little bit of football...

Stay with me here.....Celina game last night. Hooters afterward to see OSU get beat in O/T. Home to sleep than up this morning and off to Cowboy Stadium to watch 3 games. Love to watch Allen and Euless Trinity. Trinity won it....I was willing Allen to score at the end to send it into O/T, but it didn't happen. We were sitting with Trinity fans, so I was lucky to not get smacked....It was tough to not jump and cheer for Allen there at the end. We left in the 3rd quarter of Marcus and Timberview, listened to the USC game on our way home and NOW we are watching Baylor and Oklahoma. Appears the top seeds are not fairing well this weekend. Clemson upset. OSU upset and Baylor just might beat Oklahoma. And then there is tomorrow....loving every minute of it!

Off to see who wins...

Bring on round 3!!!!

Celina 37 Lovejoy 17. Great game. Started out with Celina down 10-0. I got that sinking feeling in my stomach, but we rallied back to pull it out. So....now we go to Mesquite Friday night. After the game Danny and i went to Hooters and finished the Iowa State and Oklahoma State game, OSU went down in O/T. Today Danny and I are heading to Cowboy Stadium to watch 2-3 games. One of which is Allen and Euless Trinity...both are undefeated. Yes my friends and family, I am a football junkie! Love every minute of it....also, Allen's band is like no other. Typically 600+ strong and absolutely fantastic to watch...can't wait!

Came home yesterday to find a little green flyer on our front door. "Christmas lights hung for $125". It's a sign....gotta have them. Now...what color? Red? Clear? Green? Chelsey said anything but blue...she doesn't get "blue" for Christmas...LOL.

Colby is at practice...so glad to be able to type that for another week.

Off to figure out what color to wear to the games. Maybe just my traditional orange...since that's what I have the most of!

Love to all...
Pam

Ahhhh....Friday!

Friday night lights again. Celina vs Lovejoy in Frisco. They put us out in round two last year, so tonight is revenge.... Taking off for the pep rally so I can savor every minute.

Another long week. Chelsey and I ran to the grocery store last night for items to make corn casserole and broccoli salad, then I whipped them together just before bed time. Big spread planned for today.

Going to put our Christmas tree up tomorrow. Yep, before Thanksgiving....because I want too. Two houses near ours already have their lights up on their house. Can't decide if I will go to that extreme this year. But we can't be the only one with out lights, right?

Morgan, thank you for the text yesterday, you made me laugh just thinking about the whole scene.

Hair dryer time...and a sweater, it's finally chilly outside!
