My neighbor has these really great icicle lights, they are neon bluish, garish, well suited to lighting a North Pole burlesque show, and I freakin' love them! I have a bad case of icicle lights envy.
Do not, I repeat, DO NOT over eat pop-corn, even if it is coated with caramel or white chocolate. Pop-corn is fiber, and salad for lunch to balance the guilt of too much sugar coated fiber is more fiber. Fiber overdose is NOT pretty.
I have the most incredible boys. #1 and #2 used their money to be Santa for their little brothers. #3 got in on the act by giving his Game Boy DS to #5 and #4 was on a mission to get the lowest cost Christmas presents of all the brothers or none at all.
We have a new baby at Boy House. He's adorable, a boy (of course), 6-8 months old and deeply loved by 8 big brothers. His name is Titan he is a Rottweiler mix or Muttweiler as I have dubbed him. #4 has cleaned up every potty trip and everyone is more then willing to feed him and take him for walks.

My sweet friend Suzie came over just before Christmas to take some pictures of the two of us for a present she was working on. I think it was the first time in my life I was able to focus on the good beautiful me instead of the rolls and wrinkles.

This truly has been a joyful Christmas we have soaked in the abundance and beauty of life. Thanks to all of you for your love and for sharing our lives this past year.
Thanks to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for his loving example of how to live in joy.

Excellent tips! Especially about the popcorn. :)
Oh the day I switched from an already fibre loaded cereal to a REALLY MEGA fibre loaded cereal which was yummy so I had a second bowl... I thought I was dying!

I love the photos of you and all your sweeties. I've loved every photo I've seen of you... especially the one with the cheeky smile over on the side with your profile, it used to make me wonder what you were thinking about when it was taken... now I just assume you are wearing one of your naughty tank tops ;-)
MERRY CHRISTMAS BOY FAMILY!!!
the pics with your hubby and boys are beautiful!! You are beautiful! I love the smiles on your face.... you can see how much you love your boys!
Glad you lived through Christmas. I do hope we will get pictures of your new baby.
Thanks for the Christmas breakfast. It is one of my favorite traditions. The pictures got me a tad teary eyed, they turned out great. I loved the moose too, I want to see where you put them next time I'm over there.
Sounds like a wonwderful Christmas! I hope you enjoy the new male addition to your house:)
Wow! What great photos of you with your guys! How blessed you are!
I love those pictures! Paul told me about the story you told in Primary - he was touched by it. That is so sweet of your boys! Glad you had a good Christmas.
Love you!
