Day 136 ~ The most wonderful horrible dessert I have ever had in my whole life!

On one hand... it's wonderful because its the most amazing thing you ever could eat.  Then, on the other hand, its horrible because it's BAD for you and I could sit there and eat the entire thing, not even joking!  Veronica made this for Brad's birthday... it's brownie mix with cherry pie filling!  I think this calls for the label of Epic!!!  And she didn't even use a recipe, just guessed and put it all together :)  Definitely epic!

Day 135 ~ It was Windy!

I was babysitting and I kept looking out the window and staring at these pretty things blowing all over the place in the wind!

Day 134 ~ Stevie being bad!

I just wanna know if there's any chinese left for me mommy!!!

Day 133 ~ Philadelphia!

This is for Saturday, December 11th!  I took Nate to Philadelphia for the day for his Christmas present :)  He wanted to go to the Ben Franklin Institute... which half school, half really awesome science center.  We saw Harry Potter Deathly Hallows at their Imax, which was awesome because we hadn't seen it yet and their Imax is literally a dome, so half the movie it felt like you were watching it on the ceiling :)  Good movie too... I liked this one a lot!  Then we got a Philly Cheese steak and killed our remaining time before we got back on the bus going in and out of shops!

Our bus!  On the way home we got to ride on the top of a double decker!

The Ben Franklin Institute!

Nate inside the giant walk through heart they have there.... it was so neat!

And our Cheese Steaks :)



Day 132 ~ Piano & Snow!

Tonight was my sister's winter piano recitle! She played Silver Bells and carol of the Bells.... she did really great :)

Also.... it SNOWED today!!!  ok so only for about an hour, but it was the first actual snow, besides a flurry, for this year!

Day 131 ~ Have you seen my keys??

So.... after looking everywhere for my mailbox keys... ours is the upper most left corner... I have deducted they are nowhere :(  I have been looking for days after realizing that I didn't know where they are and they arent in any of the obvious places I usually keep them.  But my mailbox feels sad knowing it has to wait to get it's keys replaced and I keep looking regardless of the fact that my efforts feel useless!  And my Grey's Anatomy Netflix is in there and I'm eager to get in there and get it out so I can watch it!

Sad, neglected mailbox!

Update.... since this picture was taken.... the mailbox has found it's keys!!!!  In fact they never left it!  Literally!  Someone found them in the key hole and just turned them into the leasing office!  Someone tell me why on earth they didn't think to check for an apartment number before taking them??  So the office had them all this time and just didn't do anything about it since the person said they found them and didn't know whos they were!  And of course it took us a week and a half to determine we couldnt find them and on top of that, even though Nate called about them on a Thursday, they made us wait til Monday to "deal" with it!  After losing many brain cells, I am relieved that they have been found and yet wondering where my brain was when I left them IN the mailbox!  I can't wait to have my own without keys!

Day 130 ~ Advent Calendar :)

I didn't have a picture for today so I thought I would take the opportunity to take a picture of our advent calendar.... we used to get these when I was little every year but we havn't gotten one in years!  So when Nate said he wanted one, I kept my eyes open and found them at the craft store!
