Speaking of Christmas, Chris and I finally got our Christmas tree last night. We didn't end up cutting our own. Mostly because it was getting so close to Christmas and we just needed to get one. So we went to a nearby lot and got one. We also finally got a picture we liked for our Christmas cards which I will be putting in the mail tomorrow. For those of you up in the Great White North you may get yours a little late....oops!
Today we went for breakfast to this cute little restaurant called Auntie B's. It was tiny and so good. We love finding local little family joints like that. I think that may be our new favorite breakfast spot for a while. After breakfast we headed home and spent the afternoon working in the yard, finally getting rid of all the old dead leaves. After supper we decorated the tree, I am so glad to have it all up and done and now other than sending out our Christmas cards and shopping for each other I can relax and enjoy the rest of the holiday season.
And yes we have Bob the Builder stockings. My sister in law Susan made them for us last year. Actually she made them for her boys only realizing after the fact she made one of them with the girl from the show. And it wouldn't have gone over well giving one of them Bob and the other the girl. So anyways we have them now, and they rock. We also have SUPER COOL Oilers and Avalanche stockings that we just got from Chris's parents this Christmas. How awesome are those?! Sweet!

OK..I'm still laughing about the fact that you said when you were out on the subway you saw tons of people in THONGS!!! I had quite the visual picture! :)
Thongs! LOL It took me a minute to figure out you meant on their feet and not their behinds too! LOL
Love the stockings! And why do yours have presents in them already? It isn't Christmas Eve? ;)
Jessica -- could you only imagine? Now you have me laughing at the very though. Goodness that could be a scary site.
Jodi --Those 2 stocking are from Chris's mom and dad back in Seattle so they were sent to us stuffed. Bob the Builder ones however will be empty till Christmas eve:)
Beatutiful! I love the fireplace and mantel! (sp?) Good job!
I too thought of the other thongs!! It made me wonder what had happened to the general population of Boston since I've been gone.
Your tree is so pretty!! Does Belle keep out of it?
Looks good!!
Already presents under the tree, you are spoiled...
Big Bro in Edm...
I think I can see our card on your mantel. I'm guess you got it!
Why so many stocking? Are you expecting extra gifts?? haha.
Well the 2 bob the builder stockings are the ones we will use to stuff for each other. The Oilers and Avs ones are from Chris's parents. They came stuffed. And the red on in the middle is Belle's:)
