5 on Friday

ONE.  My Christmas shopping is officially DONE.  I can't believe it.  I still have a few little things here and there that I could get, but for the most part, everyone on our list has something, and I am so excited to see them all opened up on Christmas.  The online sales have been great this year, which meant I could get a few extra things for everyone!

TWO.  My girlfriend, Katie, and I are thinking about signing up and doing another half marathon in March.  This is a challenge for me... I have to start making it a priority to train and get my butt in gear!  I have done a couple of them... but my body just feels really weak lately, so I need to strengthen up and get going.  Wish me luck!

THREE.  I haven't been writing as much as I would like to lately... my little blog has fallen behind my family, the season, and work... so I haven't been able to share how wonderful our Thanksgiving was!  It was a few days of celebrating because TL worked on the actual day, but it was quiet, relaxed, and wonderful.  We celebrated with both my mom and dad's families, TL's brothers, and then on Thanksgiving day, my mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, Andie and I went to a yummy Turkey dinner together.  It was awesome!

FOUR.  Our house is decorated and festive for the Holidays.  And I LOVE it.  I love being home during this time of the year.  TL got the lights up on the house and I got the tree all done.

love that quote from #5! YAY for you on signing up for another half. I was originally wanting to do one in March but I would have A LOT of work to do!

I've only got one more major gift to pick up and I have to finish up Hubby & Elyse---but otherwise I'm finished. Which is pretty good for me considering I have Elyse's birthday next week as well!
