Secret Santa

Ted and I are participating in a Secret Santa gift exchange with his sisters and his two cousins. I received my Secret Santa gifts today in the mail. New books, yahoo!

The Tales Of Beedle The Bard

Ted ordered The Tales of Beedle the Bard and it arrived in the mail last week. I am such a fan of the Harry Potter series and I can't wait to read these tales.

The Strangers

Ted and I watched The Strangers on Saturday night. The movie was quite a bit scarier when I thought it was based on a true story. We watched it at night and Ted had to stop the movie a few times because I was so terrified. After we watched the movie I checked it out online and realized it was very loosely based on a real experience. I wish I had known that prior to watching the movie.

Walrus

Somewhere between saving the picture on my computer and uploading it to my blag the picture got rotated to the right. Regardless I hope you can tell this is a picture of a stuffed walrus. My company is purchasing holiday gifts for two local families, and one of the items requested is a stuffed animal. I saw this walrus today and could not pass him up.

Pismo Beach

Ted and I went to the Monarch butterfly sanctuary in Pismo Bach today. Unfortunately we arrived in Pismo Beach in late afternoon and we didn't get to see many butterflies. However the ones we did see were beautiful. After the butterfly sanctuary we stopped in the pet store to check out the animals. We were treated to these two adorable kittens who of course I wanted to take home with us. After that we stopped in at Mo's for delicious bar-b-que. All in all a very nice afternoon/evening.

Dinner With Ceci

I met my friend Ceci at CPK for dinner this evening. I have not had the opportunity to spend time with Ceci in several months so I was thankful for the opportunity to catch up and spend time with a good friend.

Holiday Decorations

Ted and I are going to pick out our Christmas tree on Sunday so I got out the decorations this evening. It's so exciting seeing the ornaments we haven't seen all year and remembering where each one is from. Stay tuned for pictures of our decorated tree...
