Super Saturday
Just as Greg and I were about to step out the door to go on our walk, we heard the familiar calls of Li’l Cec coming from upstairs and discovered he’d thrown absolutely everything out of his crib. I changed him, popped him back into bed with Melody’s and Matthew’s Christmas stockings (they both have big furry animal heads attached. As I had hoped, Li’l Cec was enthralled and settled down with some milk and so we went on a quick walk leaving Dave in charge and when we got back, all was silent – til 10am!!!
On the way to dropping him off at home, we stopped at the Hallmark Store to spend my $10 coupon and got a Willow figurine for my sister; I send her one every year before Christmas in rememberance of my darling niece Sarah who was killed in a car accident at age 23. It was all wrapped in Christmas paper too – wow! I’ve already given her one this year so will tuck it away for next year.
Of course, Li’l Cec loved that store, especially the giant sized puppy dog in the window – how much was that doggy in the window – I don’t know, I should’ve checked!! On the way out, poor little guy bumped his little head real good on the door, but he is always so brave and gave it a good rub and then ran off. While we were in HEB getting lots of food samples, he looked up at me, rubbed his head again and said “Owwww Nanny…..”
It’s Recovery Church tonight, so had date night last night at Luby’s – they have an all you can eat going on at the weekend, soup, salad and entree for just $6.99 so told Dave about it and he’s off there tonight.
Did any of you active military personnel sign up for the Scion care package? Well, I told Matt about it and he got his today. He was delighted, said he got a really great T shirt, beanie, CDs, cards, internet card and other stuff; I am always so impressed when our servicemen and women get the respect and thanks they deserve. Thanks Collin at Hip2save

Time for me to get dinner on the table – 3 bean chilli tonight, which is perfect for a cold day like today. When Greg and I get back from church tonight, we’re going to watch An Old Fashioned Christmas on the Hallmark channel – looks like a good one. I am such a sucker for Christmas movies.!!
