Christmas Parties - New Camera

I can imagine what some may be thinking, “Where’s the Pictures?” I have my new camera and am taking many great photos, (Ok only a few) and haven’t posted anything yet. I am guilty of working to much and getting into the Christmas movies. Christmas is my favorite time of the year. My mom would have Christmas music playing from Thanksgiving ‘til Christmas. My mom went to live with Jesus nine years ago. At Christmas time I feel unbelievably close to her like she is right here with me. I am addicted to the Hallmark channel because they are playing all the great movies!

We all know the kind. Movies filled with magic, and mystery. Love and Romance! I am thankful to have two kids who enjoy these movies too! My soldier is the very anti Holiday Fun kind of guy.  I don’t know why he is so discouraged most times and would rather not participate in most anything that is fun or filled with magical moments. We are however planning on going to this beautiful Christmas party this weekend that my work is putting on. There probably won’t be any alcohol which may mean lots of laughing and dancing! I have not been to one of these with this company. At my husbands work parties they have beer, wine and reminisce of times from before. Don’t get me wrong both kind are a hoot.

My husband and I are going to be escaping over night since the drive is 140 miles and very dangerous at night with the ice, snow, and animals. We are staying at the Red Lion! Sunday before coming home we will be doing the last of the Christmas shopping. I have it all done but he has done none of it and wants to buy things too. I hope this means great things for me. Usually we take the kids so we can each take one and go do our own shopping but not this time. It may be difficult for him to shop with me there. I   promise to upload pictures very soon!
What do you do when it is just your husband and you?
