Been busy

I'm feeling bad for being such a delinquent blogger, but I've been busy folks. This weekend, it was getting the &%*# Christmas decorations up.


Usually, getting the house ready for the holidays feels like a burden -- a chore that has to be done. But this year, Lexi is seriously in to decorating. She probably decorated, undecorated and re-decorated my mom's tree 12 times over Thanksgiving.



Here's the finished product in the front room -- the artificial, pre-lighted tree that didn't stay pre-lighted for more than one season -- that's visible from the street.


We also put one up in the back room, where we do most of our hanging out. It's a real tree that I decorate with the far-superior colored lights.


As for my excuses for why I have not been blogging... Well, for a few weeks I was recovering from my stint with the nephews.


Then there was my birthday (and Mike's)...


Then Gingerbread Village with Grandma Wendy, the Lovings and the Welches...


Then Thanksgiving dinner...


Then my cousin's butt-kicking ninth place finish in the Galena half-marathon...


And then the Pad Thai cookoff: Carrie v. Nick. Fortunately for the loser, I'll stop here -- but promise to be a better blogger from now on.

I really like pad thai, but I can honestly say neither of those dishes looks very appetizing. I'll have to assume they just didn't photograph well.
