I love Christmas, and parties, and Christmas parties...
and sharing with you weird things that happen to me.
Hopefully you'll find my weekend as entertaining as I did. It's a zoo over here.
-Every year since I was probably 12 our old friend, Cookie (sweet name, right?!) has the most
amazing Christmas party ever. She's about 60 years older than us, so are all of her friends,
but it literally is the most happenin' party I go to all year.
Complete with homemade meatballs that are delicious.
And I don't even like meatballs. And she takes our coats, and has a crush on Mike.
It's perfect.
-We have one nice car, and one completely ghetto car that would win a makeover on
Pimp My Ride if we entered it. We're really frugal so we're just driving it until it falls apart.
It's almost there.
Anyways, the windows don't work. Unfortunately, instead of being unable to roll them down,
they are actually stuck down, and wont roll up. haha. It gets real cold this time of year with
those windows down, and when it rains?! Thats a whole nother story. People think we're nuts.
That's not even the story. The story is that I'm a mean wife and drive the nice car most of the time, and Mike takes the ghetto mobile to work. Last night when he got in, he saw something scurrying
around. And a cat jumped on the seat, and out of the window.
We had a cat, living in our car.
We need a TV show.
-I have a paranoia about leaving my straightener on, burning down the house, and having Oliver be fried crispy.
Today during church I remembered that I didn't turn it off. So I panicked.
Waited until an appropriate time, and rushed home.
Usually, it's always unplugged, and I freak for nothing.
But not today. Today it was on... and I felt like a hero.
-Who knew that if you put a candy cane in hot chocolate that it actually tastes minty? I didn't
But now I do, and my world is more beautiful.
- We took our church youth group to a food bank on Saturday. Turns out I'm a pro bagger.

I just am learning about the instagram thing! I like it alot! love the pictures so pretty!
We waited until my husband's car couldn't take another winter to sell it before we could't get anything for it. He had it since high school and drove it from Alaska to Idaho for college with 3 other guys in it. It is gone now. Thank God.
Also, I freak out about leaving the coffee pot on. All. The. Time.
Lovely bow.
That's all.
I'm totally DYING over that turquious bow in your hair. GORGEOUS!
That flower belt is so fun! As is the big turquoise bow. Lovely instagrams.

Love this post. It made me smile. I had to laugh about the cat. I hope it was friendly. We have a cat that has adopted us - it follows us around the neighborhood when we go for walks. It always wants to come in the house...

love that cute little turquoise bow!
Would never have thought to put a bow at the back of my bun...clever! I'm loving it
That is so funny about the cat in the car!!
I freak out about my straightener, too!

How funny.. I can totally relate to the fear of burning down the house. I got all the way to work the other day, thought I left the stove on, and drove (30 more minutes) back home to double check I turned it off.
Haha so random! A cat living in your car...
Your car sounds hilarious! Love your big hair bow :)
