Christmas In November

I. Put. Up. The. Tree. All. By. Myself.




Well the boys helped a bit, I mean without another adult to move the chair, vacuum the gross things from where the chair was, get the boxes from storage, put the entire thing up WITH LIGHTS and put the boxes away after. All while Jake is at work. I'm hoping he's surprised. Does Toys R Us have wifi?

Getting on the Float - animation

This is a little animation I made expressing the emotions I felt getting on the float. The very tall float. The worst part had a tiny teeny tiny ledge for my feet and very little to hang on to as I "swung around" to the bed of the truck. I WISH I had sweet pea hands that could've wrapped around the handles like the animation depicts.

Christmas Parade

Um.  Yah. I'm a delinquent blogger. My apologies, but seriously. Facebook, people. Facebook.

For those of you who still check here and who might not check  my facebook or have your own facebook or have passwords to someone's facebook and lurk with permission, here are some videos of the Santa Claus Parade we were in last night. Hayden and Sage's dance company Attitudes In Motion (A.I.M.) floated down the streets of town right by the traffic cops, and we only stopped a moment when we heard them holler STOP! Ok they didn't hollar. Hollur? at us. One obediently waved once at me, caught on film. We were float 30 of about 60 floats, so we didn't get to see much except for what you see in the film, but we had a great time waving and smiling and didn't even kill ourselves getting on and off the float. 168 pounds ago I never would've even considered getting up there.

So, enjoy. I miss you.
love
ME.



This video is for showing the public what we experienced, and why we might've missed your face if it was in the crowd. Dark. Busy. Speedy floats.
