Christmas

1) Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate?

Gift certificate for laser hair removal. All I can say is, AMAZING!

17) Favorite Christmas Carol?
I like them all!! But I can't listen to them until Thanksgiving is over.

Is this really who I married??

Really, I don't remember saying that I would marry this. Just kidding. Just a little background info. Christophe hasn't had a hair cut since June. Last Sunday, I wasn't feeling very good and I was being a little ornery. So in the car, on the way home from his parent's house, he said he was going to do something that was going to make me laugh really hard. So when we got home, he brushed his hair out, and this was the result. And I did laugh! Isn't he sooo cute?
OK, here is a real picture of him.

I DID IT!!

So, I finally started a blog. I am always on, reading about what is going on with family, so I decided it was time to start my own. It won't be as interesting as everyone elses, but here I am.
