A visit to Santa...

Mom and Dad decided to take me to the Mall to see Santa.

Why am I upset here, you ask?

Mama put me in TIME OUT!

No really!

She put me in Time Out.

I was in the line to see the Fat Man and I was running around because I was excited

acting like a redneck heathen!

She asked me a couple hundred times to stand still or sit down on the bench.

I couldn't help myself.....

So, TIME OUT it was.

I could see Santa.

Mama had been telling me that Santa was watching me, but this time he REALLY was.

Dang. I blew it!

There was NO WAY I'd be getting my Dragon Lightning McQueen now.

(or my Official Red Ryder Carbine Action Two Hundred Shot Range Model Air Rifle)

Well, after my dissappointment meltdown, I dried my tears...

gave Dad a kiss & headed to the front of the line.

It was finally my turn

to tell him what I wanted.

Mom went with me, cause I was a little nervous.

I sat on his lap for a picture.

Got a candycane

(Hey, I thought I wasn't supposed to take candy from strangers!)

Oh, and I even gave him a hug!

I was totally sucking up!

It was a roller coaster of emotions.

I'll let you know how it turned out!

Can you Believe It?

 I can't believe that it's been 3 short years since:

And 2 short years since this:

And this was only last year:

And now...

I'm opening presents.

I'm giddy about presents.

I LOVE Christmas.

Stay tuned for more posts about the holidays.

Mama wants a Printer!

You see this?

Mama is drooling as she's looking at this on The Pioneer Woman's website.

Head on over to enter to win it.

She wants you to have a chance too, but really what she wants is to win it!

Mom...

Mom...

Are you there Mom?

Oh, well, she'll tear herself away from her laptop in a little while.

You have to tell what is your favorite holiday recipe is. This is what Mama said:

"Sausage Balls. They are so simple but man they are good.

Sausage...good

Cheese...good

Carbs...good."

That's all I have to say about that. I don't even know what they are. Mama assured me that would change TODAY!



Lost in Translation....The Holiday Edition

With the holidays nearing, I thought I'd share some of the G-Man's newest vocab:

"Mama, I want to go wook at the Big 'o, Big 'O Drivin' Through
Cwismas Wights wif Nanar and  PaPaaaaawww".

(May we please go to the Holiday Lights?)

Wooodof = Rudolph

Ominence = Ornaments
(this took me several days to figure out what the heck he was talking about)

"Where is dat Cwazy Wittle Elf?"
(Mother, where is Christoper? He's our Elf on the Shelf)

Mama sing da Jesus in da Cradle song
(Away in a Manger. I'm just happy he doesn't call Jesus CheezeIts anymore.
I think the women at the Baptist Church were starting to judge us.)

The Pway Song
(It's the song from O' Brother Where Art Thou that Allison Krauss sings.)
see it here.

Ok, this one is not a vocab, but I think it's funny!
Every time G-Man sees anything with horns on it he shoots us the "Hook Em Horns" sign. Sooo, we've been reading lots of books about the Nativity. When we were reading about some cattle are 'lowing', he shot us his best Hook Em Horns. It's funny to me & I giggle everytime. Maybe it's just me.
I'll post more as I hear them. We are having a blast with Christmas this year. Hope you are too.
