Just got home from Vegas and I am painfully behind on my threads as well as everyone else's but I have vowed to catch up tonight. Lovely! The lights are great and I wanna see every decoration.
Happy Hanukkah! Love the soccer themed menorah.
Very nice job with the tree. The instant cheeriness that a decorated tree brings to the room is so wonderful. The "hidden Mickey" ornament is cute. I love that look of the swirly peppermints.
Wishing you safe travels and fun this week.
Happy Thanksgiving!
It's about 11 feet tall and it was only $10. Of course we had to chop it and haul it home but my house smells so good. I'll post some. We'e on for Sunday too with Michael to see the house. We'll come by before the airport if that's ok?Love the tree! Happy thankanukkah and Gobbletovand go Josh at the tournament!
First one ever. They lost the second game by two goals and played the dirtiest team I have ever seen. The third game the got killed but played well. The other team played so well, like MLS quality. I could not believe they were U12 bits. They passed liked pros. Our boys foot skills are amazing but these guys were so fast, we just couldn't get there.That menorah is totally adorable.
Denny said he saw LED lights that have that old school appearance to them. I love it! I haven't seen those lights in years. I have to get the 'ol Christmas tree out this weekend and if my lights don't work - bam - in the trash and I'm going old school too!
Have fun in Vegas!
It's beautiful! Yes, more ornament shots please
I went LED, I love leaving the lights on all the time.
One would think I'd be doing something other than playing here. 
Nothing new on the Disneyland trip but I realized tonight that I have 15 days to be wrapped and ready for Christmas.
I knew that because the trip would be soccer heavy and mostly take place in Henderson that I wouldn't take a lot of photos. It was a great time but because I did the driving I knew there wouldn't be any fun road trip pics. We went to the Strip one night, parked at the Luxor and used the walkway over to the Excalibur so the boys could lick their wounds at the fun dungeon arcade. We did make it over to one of the outlets malls but aside from the Nike and Disney stores, I wasn't impressed with their "deals". The mall almost seemed as if it got all of the merchandise from one place and divided it up between the stores; it was really odd, low quality stuff in the Hurley/Billabong/PAC Sun etc type stores. Of course, with the boys, we didn't hit the Coach and higher end stores so they could have had rockin sales.

His team killed it the first game and he got a hat trick.

All my non-Disney friends accuse me of Disney speak since they don't know the acronyms and all. I guess that is soccer mom speak! 
Sounds like you guys had a good weekend! Sorry that Joshua's team eventually lost but yay for the hat trick! That's an awesome accomplishment!
My teams split this weekend...Missouri beat A&M and gets to go the SEC Championship game and the Chiefs lost.

OK, Sunday the 22nd then? For some reason I was think it was Saturday, but you are in the parks Friday and Saturday right?
This whole paragraph was like reading a foreign language!
You're right, it's Saturday not Sunday. My brain feels like mush. We're in the parks on Thursday and Friday. We're meeting Friday in the park before your din din I think. I think it just hit me that I have to be wrapped and ready for the holidays by 2 weeks from tomorrow. Good to see you!
Denny's job is to put it up and I do all the rest. He let me down this weekend. I did get the rest of the house decorated, but I have a super busy weekend coming up sooooooooo
.. I'd like to put it up Friday night. fingers crossed. And I may go and get those lights this week.
