Merry Christmas...Thank goodness it's over!

If I ever end up in Jail, it's gonna be because of Jon and Nikki!

We Survived William B. Umstead Park!!!

And if you've never been to Umstead Park, you should go.
NO PAIN NO GAIN!!

Get ready to sing...

Who needs cable when you've got the internet Baby!

So yesterday, I literally sat for 8 hours straight and watched T.V. On-Line. Yeah I know right, Some of you are thinking "Gosh, She's sooo lazy!"...While most of you are thinking "Gosh, she's sooo lucky!" (a special thank you to Hubs for keeping me in this wonderful lifestyle of lucky, laziness...I love you) Okay, so anyway, my new obsession,



Hell's Kitchen! I figured I love Kitchen Nightmare's, so I've gotta try Hell's Kitchen. I gotta tell you guys I LOVE IT!
And what better way to watch it then ,when I want and where I want? It's like cable 'On Demand' only way better and cheaper. So , skip forward to today, Nikki and I were just sitting here talking about how awesome it is and she was thinking about Bravo shows...and sure enough...Top Chief...Yup, she's watching it right now!

Sadly not all shows are available to watch On-Line (yet! It's the wave of the future though, I just know it!). Which can be disappointing, but I think of it as an adventure. Once I get caught up on all my shows, I choose another one at random, hence the watching of Hell's Kitchen. And also hence my obsession with Lost (which I swore up and down would be a dumb show...not hardly!)....See, you never know until you are forced to watch something new out of boredom. Much better then just watching crappy re-runs or day time soaps! Happy viewing everybody!

Yeah...Holiday Parties!!!

So,Here we are trying to work up some enthusiasm for yet another Christmas Party.(As you can see, we're trying reeeeally hard!)Jon suggested we wear the Hats I made last year. (Probably because he knew the party was going to be lame)



Last night we went to Jon's Flight's Christmas party.(My third x-mas party for the year) The 335th, they sure know how to put on a shindig...If you're a drinker that is! Just Kidding, it was fun. We left before it got too late though, we had to get home to watch Cops.(we do have our priorities) Plus they were going to play Musical Chairs. MUSICAL CHAIRS PEOPLE!! Grown, Drunk, Adults playing Musical Chairs is not on my "Fun To Do List". My favorite part of the evening was when we won a door prize (a DVD) and the Cheesecake. (it was chocolate..nuff said?!)

Hey Maury, This one's for you girl!

I think you need a sign like this for your classroom!

Why I love Oprah...

So, in our home (when Jon is sleeping) We watch Oprah. Some shows are better then others and today was Great! Listen up people, Oprah.com is giving away a FREE Christmas CD. FREE PEOPLE!! Last time I told some of you lucky friends and family about the FREE giveaway Oprah was doing and NONE of you partook!! What is with you people...FREEEEEEE!!! I got a really cool 20 page photo book form Snapfish... FREE. So now, I am the luck recipient of an AWESOMELY FREE Christmas CD... But, you must download it off Oprah.com within the next 48 hours. If not, well, it'll just suck to be you!!!

Today it's suuuuper foggy

It was foggy this morning when I went to the Y and I figured it would burn off later...But it's still super foggy now at noon.

Mary and Joesph's night in Bethlehem

The Goldsboro 2nd Ward had our Christmas party on Friday. It was "A Night In Bethlehem" We had a great time, there was Music, Food and Fun! And of course the Baby Jesus...the whole reason for this season.

A night in Bethlehem

The Wise Men... Bro.s Melvin, Jackson and Brown.
The Brown's
At our Booth we sold Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh.

The White's...and their baby sheep.

The Corbett's, They had the WineryAnd the Nelson's...beggars!

This one's for you Mom...

Okay, my Mom asked for some close-up's of some of our ornaments...and on this Blog we aim to please. So Mom do you recognize any? (and if you want any of them back, you gotta come and get 'em!)

I call it the Charlie Brown Christmas tree...

Can you find the Pickle?

Santa came early to the Brown's house

As my Mother will tell you, I hate waiting for Christmas morning to open presents. So without the presence of an "Adult figure" in our home, we went for it!
The good news, we just saved a ton of money by forgoing the Wrapping paper.


Jon got the new mini laptop he's been eyeing...

I finally got a printer! and a life-time supply of paper. My other gift is on the way. When it gets here it will be soooo cool, it will require another post.
