Christmas ready!

We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving, where ever you decided to spend it. We had our turkey over at David's sister's home & it was great! Even though we are still in the month of November, Christmas spirit is underway! It's a very exciting time of year & I'm pretty much done with shopping. WOW! I impress myself sometimes. We did brave "Black Friday," but found it wasn't too bad since we started at 9 a.m. after the crazies were gone. Phew! Have a wonderful last week of November!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today is a day set aside to give thanks to everything & everyone that we appreciate. But shouldn't we ALWAYS show our thanks whenever we have the chance? I know that with all that is going on in our lives, I am so very thankful for several things. My health, my family, my friends, my fantastic job, a roof over my head & food on the table. Yea, it scrapes the surface of being a little deep & corny, but hey, that's just me keepin' it real. Everyday I'm reminded of how lucky I truly am to have been blessed with all that I have. It's just up to me to keep it in tact as well as I possibly can. Things happen for a reason & everything that we experience is what helps shape the people we become. So on this day of "thanks," I just want all of you to know that we love you & truly appreciate all you have brought to our lives...big & small, bad & good, up & down. We're truly grateful to have you in our lives! HAPPY THANKGIVING!

Turkey Monday!

Hope all is well & healthy during these holidays. We're both trying to get over a this annoying, lingering cough, but still truckin' along. Can't believe the weekend is already over. Let's see, what did we do? Did some Christmas shopping, went to Nordstrom's perfume party, painted at Color Me Mine, saw "Fred Claus," rollerblading (Melia) & went to a Tea Party for Melia's friend's birthday. Phew! I think we need another day to recover. Thankfully, this will be a short week with Thanksgiving in just 4 days. Where does the time go? Thanks for participating in our Thanksgiving survey. We will be going to a relative's house for dinner this year. Enjoy your Monday!

Been down and out...

Hey all! Today is the first day back to work. I've been sick with the flu since Monday morning. Needless, to say, I didn't get my flu shot this year. I'll think twice next time. I can count on one hand, how many times I've been sick like that. I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. Well, our anniversary weekend was great & it was exciting just to reconnect. We enjoyed our time together. This weekend is a weekend of birthday parties. I tell ya. Having kids? NEVER a dull day/weekend!

Almost the weekend!

Today will be the first "official" posting on the fruity blog. How exciting! It's so addicting. If you've seen the blog within the last 24hrs, you'll notice that it's changed several times. Trial and error I guess. Anyway, as we get closer to the weekend, I can't help but add to my list of things to do. Isn't it true that there's NEVER enough time in the day? Saturday is our 6th year wedding anniversary. WOW! Can't believe it's been that long already. We'll probably enjoy a nice, quiet dinner and before you know it, Monday will be here.
