Well, I had to change the background for Christmas, right?

I love the "Cutest Blog on the Block" site. You can copy and paste the 'cutest' backgrounds for free! Neat!!! Makes the blog look better, which is just for me because i don't let anyone else look at it! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving at Betty and Jim's. They always do way too much food and are so sweet to give everyone an ornament from Hallmark. Betty loves Hallmark ornaments - well, she loves anything from the Hallmark store. They always have their Christmas tree up and decorated. This year she put it in a completely different place - at the end of their couch! It looked great but it was difficult to walk around in that area. Still, it looked great there. They chose multicolor lights this year. Betty doesn't like white lights on her tree. Some years they have put all red on it. She uses white lights on other trees in the house, but the main one always has either red or multi. Harlie came home with us and spent the night with Nana and Papa again. She was a little stubborn this time and when we woke up the next morning I learned why. She was sick with a runny nose and fever. And Nana was sick with a cough, sore throat and nasal conjestion. I think she and I keep sharing the same cold over and over! Anyway, Nana did not feel good and neither did she, so we called her momma to come get her at 11:00a.m. Talya felt guilty but I told her Harlie was wonderful (and she was considering she felt so bad!) and Nana went to bed right after they left. Nyquil has helped a lot but Papa and I agree it is PriMed for me today!!! JRM took pictures and I will post them later as they are still in his camera - i haven't uploaded them to this computer yet.
