I know, two posts in one day. I just could not resist. Thanks Rachel!

Your Christmas is Most Like: A Charlie Brown Christmas

Each year, you really get into the spirit of Christmas. Which is much more important to you than nifty presents.

What Movie Is Your Christmas Most Like?

And one last entry.......
I must get back to homework.

What The Holidays Mean to You

For you, the holidays are about celebration. You enjoy all the fun and fellowship that the holidays bring. You celebrate the holidays in a minimalist style. You are likely to only give one great present and decorate your house with a few special items. During the holidays, you like to feel cozy and comfortable. You're happy to stay inside with a roaring fire and a warm drink. You think the holidays should be nostalgic and sweet. The holidays bring out your inner child. Your best holiday memories are of childhood foods and traditions. You secretly still wish you believed in Santa Claus.

What Do the Holidays Mean to You?

In case you could not tell, I love holidays and Christmas is my favorite.

Just a quick one

Nothing to really say, OK not enough time to say it. We had parent teacher conference tonight, very interesting. How to motivate a 12 year old who does not care... HMMM that will be interesting. So the story is Patrick is passing all of his classes, but just barely (we're talking c- and c) and the teachers are pushing for more. They know he can do so much better, just chooses not to. I have to agree with them, which means I will have to micromanage......

Oh, 2 weeks of class, finals week and then the semester is over and only one left!!!

ThanksGiving Break

Finally, I am on Thanksgiving break. I thought it would never come! I have had so many tests and so many things due and it was been crazy. Not that this break will really be a break considering that I have a million things to do for school still! But it will be nice to have nothing else to worry about for a whole week!

Since thanksgiving is so close, what I am thankful for...
1. Matt, my wonderful husband. He supports me in school, tries his hardest to give me all the time I need to myself, takes care of my family with any plumbing issues, and takes care of me and Patrick
2. Patrick, he is my everything and I often think were I would be if I had never had him. I really don't like it. I could have never asked for a better son.
3. Family, nothing is better than hanging out with your siblings, or being an aunt. They have been there through thick and thin for me. I also know that I would have never been able to make it with Patrick if I did not have them.
4. School friends, they are the many that are in every class and the ones that make going to school easier. They have become my mini family (I spend enough time with them to be family) and what makes getting through school easier
5. Just plain old friends, from my Texas friend to my friends here. They all give me something that no one else can.
6. My in-laws, I could not have asked for better. They have made many things possible and have raised a wonderful child making him a wonderful husband and father figure.
7. Christmas music, I know weird, but it makes me happy. It reminds me that Christmas is right around the corner, by the way I love Christmas!
8. Color, thank you Kelsie for reminding me!

My Niece Kelsie

My niece Kelsie is the cutest little girl ever.
She put a comment(3 actually) on my blog that made absolutely no sense. Turns out she spelled something wrong in the first post and then accidentally deleted it so the second one made no sense, then let me know that she had deleted the first and that she did not have time to retype it because it was late and "her mom was getting mad" in her third post. She is cute, sweet, a little dingy and the best niece.
Now I don't mean to single her out. I have four nieces (McKenzie, Kelsie, Mary, Hallie) and I must say I love having nieces. I love them all very much. They give me the small feel of what it would be like to have girls.

Disclaimer: I love that I have a boy. I also love that I have nephews. In general I love being an aunt.

This is not all of my nieces and nephews, but most of them.

November

I know that we are now on to Thanksgiving, but I really liked the fairy looking girl. So she will stay for a bit before I change her into Thanksgiving motif.
Halloween was fun, Patrick went with his friend, we are no longer cool, and we passed out candy at my in-laws and then went off to my sister's to see the other kids.

Speaking of in-laws, I just wanted to say that I have the best. I could have never asked for better in-laws.
