Merry Christmas to me!!



Okay... us!! But I'm pretty excited about this one!! Our 3rd (or 4th) $15 4-cup coffee maker is starting to crap out on us and what could be more perfect timing than Christmas? WooHoo!!

I came so close to getting a Kindle Fire, but do we really need more than one in the house? Well, I'm not sure. But I'm about to test that theory.

I forgot how bad our coffee was until my first cup of this one!

YUMMY!!!

I officially deem 2011, the year of appliances, big and small!!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

My baby's growing up!!

Wow!! If there was a day to remember it would be this one!! Kylee was hired on for her first official job today!!
I noticed that Sonic Drive-in was hiring part-time and didn't give her much of an option to refute the matter. It's time she had a little dose of reality rather than staying home, grounded every weekend!
So she filled out the application at home, I gave her a few pointers, and drove her down to drop it off directly with the manager on duty.
As it turned out, the owner was the one who accepted her application and he was gracious enough to speak to her right away! After a few minutes outside on the patio, Kat was hired on the spot!!!
When she got into the car we did a big screaming-hug-dance!!!
It was an amazing moment that I will never forget. The butterflies and adrenaline of my own was hilarious on it's own!
I couldn't have been more proud. She handled herself impeccably and she starts the new job with the new year!

My baby. <3
