All I want for Christmas is a.....

Harley Fat Boy!!!!

And he got one.  It's pre-owned but it's perfect for him.  He's so excited he can barely stand it.

So am I.  I'm so glad he's happy to have a motorcycle again. 

1998 Fat Boy.  Beautiful color.

He looks good on it doesn't he?  :)
Don't tell Al but I can't wait to go riding!

Favorite

My conversations with Livvie are never, ever, ever, dull.  Here's one we had Sunday night.



O:  Mommy, I don't want to call you Mommy anymore.  I want to call you Mom.

Me:  Aren't you too little to call me Mommy?

O:  You're kind of my favorite parent anyways.

Me:  Oh yeah?  Why is that?  Not that I disagree or anything....

O:  *giggle*  Well, you did give birth to me.  Daddy didn't.  I mean, you gave me life.  So, that's why.

Me:  Makes perfect sense to me Boo.


Ha ha!  I love conversations with my girl.  She is too, too funny sometimes.  (I know Al is totally jealous.  But hey, he should have given birth to them right?)

SSSSHHHHH!!!!

Cooper and Olivia are going to be sssoooo excited!  Al and I got tickets to take them to see TNA Impact Wrestling here in Florence in February!!!!

Yes, I know it's not the WWE, BUT for a little boy who now worships wrestling and a big sister who refuses to be left out - this is big.  :)  I printed off and made copies of the tickets so I'm going to put them in their stockings.  Al and I can't wait to see how excited they are about going to their first wrestling match. 

It's funny that the kids inherited both mine and Al's love for wrestling.  I admit it's a guilty pleasure of mine.  Ha ha!  Cooper will even tell you that Randy Orton is my boyfriend.  :)  

Only 9 days before Christmas!  I'm getting so excited I could explode.

December now???


It's already the first week of December.  I won't be winning any blog awards this year.  2012 is going to be the year of the blog for me - just wait!

Christmas shopping is almost done - woot!  I have a new app on my iPad that lets me play around with borders, etc so I created the one I have here.  If it weren't for the stupid "tag" on the right, it would be absolutely awesome right? 

We are trying the "elf" thing and it's just not working.  The kids treat their elves like toys and play with them constantly.  I've given up.  Both their classes have a "classroom elf" who is following the rules, so I wave my white flag.  :)  It never ceases to amaze me how different the rugrats act at school compared to home.  I know there is no way I was like that.  *smile*

We are also gearing up for Upward Basketball - Cooper is super excited about it.  For such a small little guy, he loves basketball.  Although now that he's discovered wrestling, that may change soon.  He's got speed and accuracy when he shoots so he's actually pretty good.  We found out last week that he has Coach Lon AGAIN - which tickled Cooper.  Poor Coach Lon has been his basketball coach two years already and one year as his soccer coach.  I can't figure out if he just likes Cooper that much or if he has really bad luck.  O is wishy-washy on basketball.  Some days she loves it, some days she'd rather die than play.  So, here's hoping to a "I love it" day when she has her first practice.  :)

Writing our letters to Santa tonight - stay posted for pics!
