Happy Sunday And A Surprise!

Happy Sunday everyone! Only 5 more shopping days left until Christmas! Are you guys ready!?! I got lucky this year in that both kids were home so we were able to go out with them and get lots of things picked out. It's not easy buying gifts when your kids don't live close by anymore. You never know what they want or need. Plus, this year with me being on crutches, I just needed it to be hassle free.

For the 3rd time in the last 2 weeks, we're headed down south to Orange County today (3 hours away) to attend a Christmas party. These are camping club friends and it should be alot of fun. We go camping with the same group of friends once a month but we haven't been able to go for the past 3 months. It will be so nice to see everyone today. I'm really looking forward to it...with the exception of the drive to and fro.

I can hardly believe it but I just noticed that this is my 400th post! Incredible! I was so hesitant and scared when I first started blogging and thought I'd never have a thing to say but here I am 400 posts later. It's been a blast, thank you!

I think we need to celebrate with a 400th post GIVEAWAY don't you! I don't have a clue what the gift(s) will be but just leave me a comment and you'll be entered. Nice and easy, that's my motto! Little Sis (Courtney) is home from college so I'll have her draw a name(s) on Wednesday. Sounds like a plan!

Well I guess I'd better go get my party clothes on. It's time to head on out for some Christmas fun!

Congrats on BIG 400! WOW! Thanks for the Christmas card, got it the other day.

Now scoot and enjoy your party and so it takes 3 hours but you'll be with some friends you probably haven't seen for a bit. Enjoy and careful driving.

linda. that ken caryl neighborhood looks awesome. community garden - loving that.
i had not heard of that but looked it up on the map, too far for jeff and work.
we are considering Highlands ranch. i really want to live in greenwood village but just a bit pricey and the schools are a big thing for us.

keep me posted if you have any other denver moving tips, only 6 more months for you and i..
merry christmas.
