So this past weekend was our Circle Journal Get Together.  4 out of the 5 of us were able to attend.  During our get together, we enjoyed Sangria...click here for the recipe, and snacked on some really good finger foods.  We enjoyed great conversation from music, Real Housewives of Atlanta, relationships, and of course the completed Circle Journals.  It was great being able to see all of the completed Circle Journals.  Everyone's books looked really good and you can tell that everyone put a lot of time and effort into making their entries look really good.  I'm looking forward to the next circle journal experience!

December 1st:  While Hubby was at work, me and the girls slept in and then just had some fun time until Daddy came home - then off to the mall to Build-A-Bear Yea!!!

December 2nd:  Off to church, where we got to see Cupcakes God-Mother, and then Cookie's with Santa, Cousin Mason's 1st Birthday Party...Meeting at Cousin Ny's house and then finally back home for dinner and bed time.  Sunday was a VERY busy day....I forgot to mention Football.....GO TEXANS!!!!!

December 3rd:  What a day, what a day.  The girls were in rare form - all over the place and very hyper active!!!!!  I had to go to the Dentist to get my crown recemented, then off to grocery shop, and lunch with Ahma (the MIL) at Olive Garden.  Oh don't you just love the holidays!

December 4th:  Today has been a pretty quiet day.  DH and DD Pumpkin headed out this morning, which left me and Cupcakes with a day full of catch up.....laundry, folding and hanging cloths...plus gathering clothes to iron for the next 2 weeks.  I continued watching The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo....for the 3rd sitting....still not done with the movie...but I'm almost there...maybe I'll be able to finish it sometime this week.....hopefully. 

Well, that's it for now.  It's time to get dinner ready!

Today, I will actually be beginning my December Daily.  This evening, we had such a great time at our Town Center Annual Lighting of the Tree.  A Live Band, food, horse carriage rides, lots of vendors, elves walking about, just a whole bunch of activites for the whole family to enjoy.  What a great way to start the Christmas Season.  Let's get this joyous occasion in which we celebrate our Lord and Savior Started!!!!!!

My husband and I met in college, 10 years ago!  WOW....and we hadn't been to Homecoming since 2005....so this trip was 7 years in the making!  It was good to be back at our old stomping grounds and we had a blast hanging out with friends over the weekend. 
 
I just wanted to wish all the Grandparent’s a very happy and blessed day! Here, we were able to celebrate with my parents over dinner.

One Sunday of every month at our church, Lakewood, the First Lady of the church prays over our children, giving parents the opportunity to dedicate their children – no matter their age back to God.  On this day in August 2010, we dedicated our joy back to our Lord and Savior.  What a blessing!
