Presents for "The Office"

This is Meghan in a box. You will soon see she is stuck in the box.

Ok, here is what happened. Dr. Payne said it was mandatory for us to wear Santa hats the week of Christmas in the office. I refused. I do not like hats, they mess with my "poof', besides they are just not flattering on me. Also, I could not take anything seriously he said while wearing his Whoville Santa Cap. He promptly fired me on the spot, so MJ and I planned a surprise that would outdo any hat. I think the pictures tell the story.

**Just a side note, as Mj and were making our surpises, my children could only repeatedly ask us to be quiet and move out from the front of the TV, which only confirms the fact the odd events such as this occur daily in my home and are considered quite natural**

It was really funny when MJ fell and couldn't get up. But the best part was when Dr. saw us and laughed so hard he almost cried declaring us the winners, hands down. That's right. No one tells me to wear a hat. Don't you just love where I work? I have chosen to work at this stage in my life - earlier than I would have liked, but - if I am going to work I am going to have fun while doing it. I am very thankful those I work with feel the same.

Merry Christmas, OAB.

Our First (and only) Snow... yes, I am still blogging about December in February

The first snow of the season is always a reason to celebrate. It reminds me of my own childhood as I would stay up and shovel the neighbor's driveway in the dark, quiet of the night to surprise them in the morning. There is magic is that first snowflake. Those of you who live in the "Land of Snow Return" probably don't appreciate it as much as we do here in the Treasure Valley where you never know what you are going to get. This year, this is all we got, but my two younger snow bunnies made the best of it and a snow cave that lasted through the rain that followed the next day.
My very own snow angels.
