Day 19

I'll start off by saying that grocery shopping for one is no fun... But it's even worse alone. I'm going to have to recruit a grocery buddy.

I found a Christmas tree shaped cupcake holder at the store today for really cheap. I was contemplating taking the tree down, but wanted to display some of our ornaments because I love them so much.... This was my solution. I can take the tree down without feeling guilty about packing up both Christmas and my patriotism. It's green. But I'm thinking of spray painting it white or red. Actually, I was thinking more of having you spray paint it white or red. Lol so hurry home so you can paint my mini-tree. ;)

I grabbed 3 picture frames today. I'm going to blow up the picture of the platoon and you holding the little girl in Iraq, and one of the pics from the day before you left... Either the one with us on the cannon, or if you like a different one better...just let me know. I'll post a picture when I get them on the wall. I'm excited to work on them. :)

The kiddos say "hi, Daddy!" They love you and miss you. Shelby has been talking to me all day. She wants to go to the park, but it's way too cold out. Right now, she's grunting because she wants to get on the couch, but her fatty butt won't fit up here. I'm going to have to get the humidifier out... They shock me every time they get a chance to touch me. It's starting to hurt.

So tomorrow's mission: clean the downstairs, take down the tree, humidifier, move shelf to where the tree is, clean out the stairs closet so I can put the things on the shelf in there, try to figure out a way to kiss you for NYE.

So at 10:30am, my time, it will be 2012 in your time zone. I know you will be working, but just remember that I'll be thinking of you. 2012 is going to be a really good year... I can feel it. I love you, baby. Can't wait to kiss your face. Goodnight.
