Christmas Tree Madness
This is what our Christmas tree looked like for about two hours on Sunday. Granted, our prelit tree is 8 years old. However, half of the tree was out when we put it up. Of course, Bill didn’t bother to plug it in until we were over half done getting it up and fixing the branches. He’s lucky I didn’t recommend he start researching a hotel las vegas. Instead, I stayed quite calm and just finished the tree. Since only one side of the tree was out, we were able to cheat and just turn that side to the wall. We also broke two ornmanents (thanks kids!) before we even had the garland on the tree. Good times, good times.
Here are a few more pics of us/the tree/the kids having some fun:
Will’s First Haircut
I’d like to start by saying that I didn’t want to cut his hair. I like the little curls he had in the back of his hair. I thought they were cute. However, everyone and their brother was bugging me to cut his hair. When everybody else was getting their hair done on Sunday, I thought there would be no better time to do this. Now, you can’t tell how curly from this picture, but it was pretty bad (and cute). Will has such fine hair, so I did not want to do a buzz cut. It would look like he had no hair if we did that (especially if we were in a low light situation which a lot of my house. We have corners in our house that we get about as much light as tea light candles give off). Bill agreed, so at least, we didn’t have to fight over that. When we got home, Will was due for a nap and was not in the mood for pictures. However, I did get this one. This is Will with his new haircut. What do you think? (Bill thinks he looks like a little man.)
Samsung Instinct
Anyone who follows me on twitter knows I get a new cell phone last week. First, I twitter that I missed the UPS truck on Thursday. They wouldn’t come back and deliver, so I was disappointed. Then the phone came on Friday, and I couldn’t figure out how to get the back off to put the battery in. Then, due to some glitch in their system, I couldn’t activate my phone for 24 hours. After all that, I was so ready not to like my new phone.
Instead, I really love it. I have learned how to text message now (yes, I never knew how before). I can check my email, surf the web, and even listen to the radio with my phone. I can even watch Live TV! It also takes pictures and videos. Granted, I haven’t learned how to use all these features yet. However, I plan on learning! This is one cool phone. I haven’t need a cell signal booster yet either. My favorite was that when we went to Navy pier on Sunday, it gave us voice directions. It told us what streets to turn on, and I was even able to see the traffic report! I could see on each expressway how fast everyone was going. I thought that was pretty cool. I will probably end up writing a review for the Instinct over at Lisa Reviews after I’ve had it longer than a week, but I have to admit, this is one cool phone.
