Merry Christmas Eve and Happy Tuesday Y'all! I hope you all have a great day with family and friends or attending church service. Whatever you may be doing, I pray it brings you lots of happiness.
So that I do not get behind on my weekly recaps, I am sharing on Christmas Eve!
Monday, December 16th-
Ben to the office and I woke up with a low grade fever and overall felt like crap. I did get some computer work done for my duties with FFA and the golf booster club. I also got some blog work done and then I was exhausted.
My throat was hurting so bad. I used my
RLT on it for a minutes. That did seem to help. I did rest a good bit in the afternoon. Once everyone got home, I warmed up soup for dinner and was asleep by 8pm. I did wake up around 11:30 with another low grade fever, took 2 advil PMs, and went right back to sleep.
Tuesday, December 17th-
Ben to the office and thankfully I woke up feeling so much better! I took the dogs to the groomer, came home, got ready, went back to pick up the pups, dropped them off at the house, and ran all the errands to do some more Christmas shopping.
The golf team adopted a custodian to give some holiday cheer! I was able to put this basket together plus the golf coach added some of our spirit wear.
Once I got home from shopping, I packaged an order, worked on another order, and blog post. Ella went to Addison's game.
Ben and I ate Healthy Choices for dinner! Real fancy! HA
Wednesday, December 18th-
Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, Ella didn't have to go to the school until 3rd period so she slept in, I went to work out from 8-9, met Ian to drop off his truck to get serviced, dropped him off at home, made breakfast, and then went to yoga.
After yoga, I ran by Publix, got home, Ian grilled us chicken for lunch, I showered, and then got busy cleaning up the house, doing laundry, and setting up my planner.
That evening, I made chicken fettuccine for dinner, cleaned up, got ready for bed, and soon after crashed.
Thursday, December 19th-
Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, Ella got to sleep in again until 3rd for her final, I went to workout at 8am. After I worked out, I went to wash my car, grab wrapping paper at Hobby Lobby, Publix to grab stuff for lunch and dinner. Yes, I know I go to Publix almost daily. HA
Once I got home, showered, ate a sandwich, I went to the craft room, and wrapped presents for about 5ish hours. I do not love wrapping gifts so watching the new season of Virgin River helped!
Ella went to hang out with friends, Ian went to help Kathryn and her sister, and I made Ben and I sheet pan nachos for dinner.
I did send this to Ben and his response was AGREED! 😉
Finally!
We all crashed shortly after I got everything cleaned up.
Friday, December 20th-
Ben to the office, Coffee and Jesus for me, Ian slept in, Ella spent the night out at Aubreys, so I got ready and headed shopping with Leigh Anne. We went to Target, Hallmark, PetSmart, Belk, and then to Goofball Graphics, and Old Town Junction! Then we had a great lunch at The Bistro! After lunch we parted ways and I went to the grocery store! I got everything I needed for the weekend and Monday morning.
I got home, unloaded everything, watched part of another episode of Virgin River until Ben got home and we got ready to head to The Red Phone Booth with Keith and Dixie.
When we took this picture Ben said move your hand from my stomach so I did...
Such a FUN night!!! We got home a little after a 11, got ready for bed, and crashed.
Saturday, December 21st-
I got up and busy. I started coffee, put dog food on to cook, rolled out and baked sausage balls, unloaded the dishwasher, reloaded it, cleaned up the kitchen, ran the vacuum, did a few loads of laundry, wrapped a few more presents, and then it was time to get ready!
We had Christmas with my mom at 2pm.
I saw this from Annie F. Downs.
Love these sweet boys!
Grandma Deb telling them to fill these trays with water and serve their mom a glass of water and watch the bugs float up! HA
Love this sweet boy of mine!!
Look who was the only one behaving...
It was me this time! I'm using the one misbehaving! HA
We left mom's a little after 5pm. Got home, unpacked, I did a few things around the house, more laundry, then I poured a glass of wine and headed to the computer. I typed Monday's post and started this post!
We finally crashed in the 10:00 hour!
Sunday, December 22nd-
Ben and I got up and went to Waffle House for breakfast. We got home and I got in my chair for more coffee and Jesus. Ben smoked a cigar on the front porch. Then I got busy making a jalapeño corn popper dip. I also washed and chopped veggies for my veggie tray. We got ready and left the house around 1:45 to head to Ben's aunt Debbie's house for The Bramlett Christmas at 3pm.
Our level exchanges alcohol so we call it "Drunk Santa" HA
After we left The Bramlett Christmas, Ben dropped me off at Meredith's for her Annual Favorite Things Party.
We were halfway through drawing our gifts when Meredith went around with refills of Jingle Juice.
Ian picked Stephanie and I up, we dropped Stephanie off at home, and then we got home. I gathered the trash and took it to the street, started the coffee for the morning, washed my face, and crashed around 11:30!
Merry Christmas Friends!! I will be back on Monday the 30th with the NYE Bar Cart!
