We're heading to my parent's house tomorrow in Daytona. I'm looking forward to it, actually. It'll be nice, just our little fam and Joseph and his wife. I don't need a big, crazy family holiday thing, I'm happy with a smaller affair.

We are taking the rental car down though. I'm excited about that too. It's a PT Cruiser. Jeff picked it up yesterday. I've got to say, I kind of like the vehicle overall. If we have to replace Jeff's stolen car, that's not a bad option. However, catch me AFTER we drive it 7 hours down to Daytona.

Gavin's getting excited about seeing Pop Pop and Gigi. We've also talked to him about "Uncle Joe and Auntie Lynn." He cracks me up- such a SPONGE!

So, I'm totally in the holiday mood and ready to decorate for Xmas. As soon as we get back on Sunday, if it's not too late, I might have Jeff bring all the decorations up from the basement.

Fun! Fun!

Feeling much better these days! I've been fighting a nasty cold, that turned into bronchitis, for the past couple of weeks. Unfortunately, Casa de Stevenson was a mess of sick! Jeff went to the doc yesterday, fortunately, he doesn't have bronchitis!

Gearing up for the holidays. I'll tell you, even though I make as much money as I have and Jeff's salary hasn't changed (thank goodness), it's still harder this year than ever to prepare for Xmas gifts. I think it'll be a lot of homemade goodness going to my family. I found out I'm a pretty good bread baker. I'm thinking pumpkin bread all the way (or something along those lines).

New Prez

Obama was just elected to the Presidency. How incredible. What an important turning point for our nation. Now, I hope he has a good presidency and does the right things to turn this country around. Regardless of where you stand in the vote, it's important now to stand together and support our new President.

MLK, Jr. isn't dreaming anymore...his dream has been achieved. It's pretty incredible to be part of this historic moment.

Trick or Treat!

Little man had so much fun Friday night! We only took him to two houses (neighbors that he knows) to get a taste of trick-or-treating. When he saw what was getting, he kept asking for more. Very cute.

While we sat and watched "Nemo," he ate all of his candy (all 4 pieces). When kids came to the door, he was running next to me yelling "Trick or Treat! Trick or Treat!" Totally cute. He even handed candy to kids. He had a great time!

Now I can't wait until next year when Jeff and I get to take him around the hood! I might even get all the gang together and have everyone go or something. Especially since it's on a Saturday. Ooooh... fun!
