Well, not really. It has actually been really nice having such warm weather in November, but now that it's December I'm getting into the Christmas mood and longing for a little bit of snow. It just doesn't feel like Christmas time without the snow, or even the cold weather! I'll be hoping for a white Christmas! :) And I am itching to put up our Christmas tree and decorate, but we are trying to buy a house right now and we'll probably be moving sometime right before Christmas. So I might not have a Christmas tree up in the new house until right before the big day. Like maybe the day before. It is really depressing. Oh well... A new house will be a wonderful Christmas present! We feel very fortunate that we're able to buy a house right now, with so many people losing theirs. I know we have a lot to be thankful for, even if I don't get to have my Christmas tree up all through December :)
Olivia and I have been listening to Christmas music the last few weeks though, so that is getting us in the spirit of the season. Her favorite song so far is Little Drummer Boy. She sings the "pa rum pum pum pums" as loud as she can! Oh, and if anyone hasn't heard the SheDaisy Christmas album, you must buy it immediately. It is so good and unique, I can't get enough. I have had my copy for like 7 years now and I haven't been able to find it this year so I had to buy a new one. It is definately worth the $12! Go buy it!
Anyway, we spent Thanksgiving in Arizona at JJ's grandma's house. We had a great time, we mostly hung around her house and relaxed! We were really boring actually. But it was nice to get away and not worry about anything for a week :) We drove the whole way home on Saturday, about 11 hours. It was a long drive but Olivia watched movies and slept the whole time. She did great, I was so happy the she didn't complain at all. It is nice to be home, but now I have to start packing up the house and cleaning in preparation for the move. I'm praying we'll be moved in by Christmas, but nothing is even finalized yet and there a few things we're going to have to get for the house before we can move in. I wish I could just fast-forward the next few weeks and have it all be done! It will be worth it in the end :)
Last thing, I know I said I'd post pictures of the trip, but we really didn't do anything and I didn't really take pictures of anything. I'm the worst, I always have my camera but I always forget to take pictures! I'll see whats on my camera and try to post something. Sorry this was so long, it's been a while since I posted anything. I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving and is feeling the Christmas spirit! :)
