Five on Friday: This and That.



1. I can't figure out how to embed the video, but this I Am Second video of The Robertsons {Duck Dynasty} is great. Eddie and I love this family. And JAMES loves this family and wants to BE a "duck boy" when he grows up. The video is about their dark times and drug and alcohol use, just be aware! It is worth the 30 minutes of your time!

2. Don't forget about the Black Friday Shopping Spree Giveaway! Don't forget, if you don't comment, you're not really entered! {I'm looking at those of you who told me you entered but I'm not sure really did!} Go do it. Now!

3. The Fitbit. Y'all. I am a lazy bum. On Day 2 of wearing this I said to Eddie, "I just don't understand how people don't walk 10,000 steps a day? It's SIMPLE." And then I was walking laps in my teeny tiny house that night. BAHAHAHA. I do NOT move as much as I thought that I did. This has been eye opening. Between that and the new {much more accurate} scale that I bought this week, my feelings have been hurt over and over. But I neeeed to get rid of the weight I never lost after I had Will. Seriously. I gained waaay more with James and it came off immediately. This? Needs to hit the road. I see lots of walking in my future. I need to walk 30,000 steps on Thanksgiving day, huh?

4. Y'all. I am so excited that people {other than myself!} are interested in the Christmas Book Swap! Yea, yea, yea! I've got a list of people who want to do it so it is ON. Let me know via comment or email if you're interested. There's a category for kids and for mamas and you can sign up for either or both! {If you let me know via comment, make SURE I can respond to you through email.}



5. Christmas decorations!!! I am so excited about Christmas this year! I could just squeal! How many of you already have your decorations up? I rode by a house last night with Christmas lights on in the front yard. I just can't bring myself to do that. BUT. My little elves will be out of town Monday and Tuesday and I'll be scrubbing the house clean and putting out our decor {on a super small scale this year!} while they're gone. And watching a few Christmas movies. I've already watched Christmas Vacation and Christmas with the Kranks. Hilarious!

I have no pictures of my kiddos from this whole week! Goodness, gracious!

We have a big 'ole busy weekend planned, of course. BIG things happening, people. Hopefully I'll get some cutie pie pictures of it. I'm off to celebrate Thanksgiving with some short little Pilgrims and Native Americans over at the preschool. Y'all have a fun weekend!
