Gingerbread House at Disney's Grand Floridian




There are 13 "hidden Mickeys" on the gingerbread house.

 You can buy Gingerbread cookies, cocoa and other treats, yum yum.

Trying to Lose Weight as I approach 40

I turn 39 in 4 days.  I promised myself I would get in shape before my 40th birthday, so I started Weight Watchers two weeks ago.  I am proud to say that I have lost 5 pounds so far!  (I have about 8 pounds to go).  I do agree with the "experts" that metabolism slows down as we age.  I can't eat like I used to. I have had to stop snacking (even the littlest things) between meals; add vegetables to meals; and cut back on soda and beer.  Not fun, but my health is worth it!

We Saw Santa Today at Bass Pro Shops

This is the second year we had to Bass Pro Outdoor World for the Winter Wonderland. The kids love it and the Santa is the best.  Here are a few pictures from today's visit:

Thanksgiving Table Settings for the Kids

Two years ago I went online to search for the perfect Thanksgiving table settings and found several good ones. (You can see that post here: http://anotheronlinemom.blogspot.com/2009/11/thanksgiving-table-settings.html.)  This year, I decided to see if there was anything out there for the KIDS table, and pleasantly found a few that I really like.
