My mom is going to kill me for this...

I have so much work to do this week because I am taking the day off on Friday. But I finally got pictures downloaded from my camera and I had to put some up!!!


How random is this?!? We were walking around downtown on a FREEZING cold night when we came upon a crew of carols...they wanted to sing "Let It Snow" so we obliged, and joined in a bit. Thankfully, Darah snapped this catchy picture so that we could remember the host of "The Nightie Before Christmas" Party - where you dress up in your Christmas PJs and carol around downtown Dallas.


Note1: He is wearing a Christmas Tree Sumbrero
Note2: He is wearing Christmas Bulb sunglasses
Note3: He is wearing gold wings...



While I was home, I found out that there are places in Texas where you can smoke indoors and drink 'tea' out of mugs. Yes, they allowed us to BYO beer...but then hide it away and brought it out in coffee mugs. Why? Why must we act like underage celebrities in LA nightclubs? I am neight underage nor in LA (celebrity status is still up in the air, ha). At least the mug was large enough to hold all 12 ounces of my Texas beer!



Did I only wear one shirt while I was home...goodness there are tons of photos of me in this totally awesome Down Under tee! But notice the hosts of the housewarming party - Katie and Paul - cleverly coordinated Christmas colors to be in the spirit of the season.



Katie and Paul have a lovely new home...hopefully, the damage from the fire has been repaired (no, I did not start the fire...I swear...ask Paul if you don't believe me!).



So, this is why my mom's going to kill me. But I can't pass up posting THE only photo of me and mom while I was home. Yes, we had just had lunch at Chipotle...but still it's me and my momma! It was so great to be home with family for the holidays. It has been so long since I had seen everyone and I am so glad I got to catch up with at least a few people in the middle of craziness called Christmas/New Year's Eve. Let me know if you got pics of me over the break because I would LOVE to see them!
