Christmas Bucket List

Today is the 16th anniversary of our engagement.  I almost forgot!

22 days.  Today I am going to post my Christmas Bucket List. I don't have the time or proper subscriptions to the proper software to create really cute graphics and what-not, and the printables online are not editable, so here's a simple bullet list (some of them I've already done):
  • Bake cookies
  • Look at Christmas lights
  • Snowflake Lane
  • Drink an eggnog latte
  • Drink a chestnut praline latte
  • Drink a toasted white chocolate mocha
  • Drink a caramel brulee latte
  • Attend a Christmas party
  • Drink a festive cocktail
  • Watch several Christmas movies
  • Eat a candy cane
  • Listen to Christmas music
  • Read the Christmas story in the Bible (Luke 2)

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer!  5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago).  It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old.  I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

The Girls' Room

So it's kids' rooms this week at Kelly's Korner Home Tours.  Unfortunately, we haven't finished the girls' room make-over.  We recently transitioned from toddler beds to twins.  I would have loved to get bunk beds to save space, but the twin beds were given to us by friends of Paul's parents so we're making do.  They were wood-colored (oak, maybe?) so we painted them white.  It was challenging to figure out how to arrange their furniture because of the alcove/nook thingie on one side.  I couldn't do the obvious two beds perpedicular to the wall with a nightstand in between configuration, so I had to compromise. There are lots of finishing touches still to be done.  We need to replace their dresser, get a nightstand, put up a shelf (ledge) or two and some wall art, and curtains.  We're also going to paint.  I've had my heart set on purple for a long time, which is why I chose this bedding with some purple but not too much, but now...

Senior Prom

Last Friday was the girls' Senior Prom.  A whole group of them met at a nearby park for photos, then they broke off into smaller groups and went to dinner and Prom.  Olivia and her group rented an Air B&B for the night, and Kayley spent the night at a friend's house with another friend or two. Olivia and Gavin (just friends) Everyone Just the guys Just the girls Olivia and Kayley
