I did make it out last weekend with Hubby and picked up a couple of wreaths for the windows on the porch and something for the mailbox. We ate dinner at Longhorn when we were done. I had the prime rib and it was really good, Hubby had New York strip. We had an appetizer of white cheddar stuffed mushrooms, liked them also. I may have to try something similar sometime.
We have a pre-lit tree but I add extra strands of lights to it. That last couple of years I've added a strand of steady on ones and twinkling ones. Well this year, I had two sets of twinkling lights and neither one would work. Then I plugged in the steady burning ones and they wouldn't work either. I did buy another set of steady ones but couldn't find any multi-colored twinkling ones. Jarin stopped by Big L0ts and found a set, so we do have some twinkling ones this year too...Here are a few pictures of the decorations...

Hubby had a good time today. One of their contract companies, chartered a bus and took them to the Carolina Panthers game today. Of course, Hubby was rooting for the Atlant@ Falcons because Julio Jones from Alabama plays for them and they won...Yay Julio! I got to catch up on some things on the DVR while he was gone...yay me...ha.
Thanks for stopping by,
