I'm so ungrateful!

I totally forgot to post about what Donnie got me for Christmas. I wear it every day, so it's not like I don't LOVE it, I just didn't post about it. He surprised me on Christmas morning with this little beauty. He's such a man. I heart him.

I hadn't even heard of the Open Hearts by Jane Seymour, but apparently they were all the rage this year. I wore mine when I went to get my hair cut a few days after Christmas and the lady said that she wanted one for Christmas but every Kay Jewlers in East Tennessee was sold out weeks before. I love my little Donnie :)

Scratching My Crafty Itch

That almost sounds obscene, doesn't it? Donnie's gone, as you all know, and I ran out of things to do yesterday. How often does that happen? I walked in to the kitchen and got aggravated with that blank wall that's been screaming at me to bedazzle it for quite some time. I came up with this:

Those are my cute girls! I was half tempted to do Thelma's silhouette!

Mar got her ears pierced!

Here she is thinking to herself "Do I really want to do this?"

All of a sudden she was happy, which had everything to do with me telling her she could buy some fingernail polish and lip gloss if she was brave

and she's scared again

She didn't move a muscle...

And here she is pissed off, but she didn't cry!

Christmas in Tennessee

We spent Christmas Eve at Jon and Teresa's house. They let us open up our gifts from them that night. We had a big dinner with all of their extended family, it was really nice. We spent that night at Donnie's mom's house and Santa left presents there.

Basically, Rylee is too cool for clothes. She doesn't see a point in wearing them, so 90% of her pictures are in the buff.

Here's the haul Santa left for the girls.

Thelma, after she claimed one of Ry's gifts

Here's Marlys opening up a DVD from Santa

Donnie with his new Affliction beanie that Santa left.

Ry opening up some pajamas...not that she'll wear them or anything though.

Deck The Halls...with a fake ass tree

I haven't posted anything for a while, because I don't have anything to post. Then I realized I hadn't even put a picture of our fake ass Christmas tree on here. I hate having a fake tree. If Donnie was home we would have a real one. We had a beautiful frasier fir last year, until I put fake snow on it and killed it, but before that happened, it was beautiful.

I put red and blue ornaments on this year. I have some really pretty ornaments but I knew with Rylee and Thelma they would get broken, so we went to Wal-Mart and got these cheapo's. It's a good thing, because Thelma had ate about 9 ornaments so far.
