Nesting...it is the real deal!

If y'all can't tell I am getting a bit crazy in my last minute nesting!! I am ecstatic that my house is in great order. Over Thanksgiving my Dad and Michael and poor Blair got sooo much done. The nursery was completed accept for a few sewing projects Momma has in mind. We now have a wooden gate across our driveway instead of chain length! Michael and Daddy were covered in mud from ripping old tired azaleas out of the front flower beds where they put in new boxwood's, flowers and cedar mulch. We also got new outdoor fixtures installed, up lighting in the shrubs and brick sidewalk pavers instead of the old pavers that were there. So nesting around the house is done and seems that I am determined to get my online journal caught up! Too bad I am not taking the same energy and applying it toward my exams for school.

Now while the guys were outside getting the yard in order...Momma and I were getting the Christmas decorations up. Sorry Singh I know it drives you crazy that I put my tree up so early and leave it until Epiphany...but I love it. Usually I am ready to go for this task, but this year pregnancy zapped my creativity and Momma had to take the lead. Aunt Mimi we really could have used your help! (And on a side note Elizabeth usually likes to leave all the decorating at Thanksgiving up to the rest of us...but Aunt Mimi you would be impressed to know that Elizabeth set the table this year and did the centerpieces and it looked beautiful...now we know she can do it!) Back to the Christmas decorations...we are all decorated and the tree is up and I have been playing Christmas music since last Wednesday! I have also done all of my Christmas shopping accept for two gifts and all but three are wrapped! Anyway I wanted you all to know that the nesting thing happens and you may not even realize it until afterward when you are amazed at the bursts of energy that come and go. And now for some Christmas pictures...
