Painted By U

For our Christmas gift, our boss took us to Painted By U to paint our own ornament. It was a neat idea and something different. I did a large ceramic ball shaped ornament which I painted red with green polka dots. Hopefully, it will turn out pretty!!!!

Dinner With Steve & Ellene

My Dad, Steve, and Ellene were passing back through Alabama on their way to Atlanta. We met up at the Macaroni Grill for dinner. Then headed over to our house so they could see our Christmas Tree. Got to show them the video from Summer's Christmas Concert too.

Christmas Concert

My niece was in the school Christmas Concert on Sunday. As a member of the band, the beginner group, she played her clarinet. With the use of the video camera we were able to see her very clearly performing her part for the four different songs performed. Glad we could make it and we are very proud of our her!!!!

Salon

Saturday afternoon I had a hair appointment. As the stylist was wrapping up, she wanted to try a new technique with one of the new toys, aka a really fancy curling rod. This technique with this fancy tool gave my hair a wavy look that is currently popular.

Tree is Decorated

Saturday morning, I finished the lights on the tree. I had actually started this during the week but ran out of lights and didn't get back to them until the weekend. Then, I was able to move on the best part - adding all the ornaments as Christmas music played.

Back to the Hospital

I found out Thursday that my step-dad was having to be readmitted to the hospital due to an infection with his hip replacement. After work on Friday, my husband and I headed to the hospital to visit with him for a little while. Luckily, one of his Christmas gifts had arrived and I was so excited about it that I took it to the hospital.

Christmas Tree

Sunday afternoon we picked out our Christmas tree from one of the local Boy Scout troops near our home. Now I just need to find time to decorate!!!
