Happy Halloween
We’re all having more fun for Halloween this year as Lily is 2. She has a better understating of what’s going on and has been practicing her Happy Halloween and Trick or Treat.
Costume Sneak Peek
This year she’ll be going as a pink cat. It’s a warmer costume which is nice but also has quite the big belly. Trying to get her into the car seat in it sure was a lot of work.
Cleaning Out Pumpkins
Lily also helped clean out some of the pumpkins this year. She wasn’t so sure about it, but eventually stuck her hand right in.
This is Halloween – The best thing you’ll see all day.
I would love to do this if I had the free time and a clue as to how they did it.
Happy Easter!

Merry Christmas
No matter what you’re doing, or how you do it, I hope this Christmas puts a smile on your face and warms your heart.
We are having a great Christmas already with Lily taking on everything from baking Christmas cookies to saying Ho Ho Ho.
I’m sure that come Christmas morning, she’ll be more than happy to rip open her presents and play with the packaging. Ohh and possibly the toys too!
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!
Let It Snow Mat Wallpaper
We have a pretty cool Christmas snowman doormat and thought that it’d make a nice desktop wallpaper too. So I took a picture.
Instead of re-sizing it, I just uploaded the full size picture (3264 x 2448) for everyone to enjoy. Feel free to re-size it as you need to.
You can grab it on Flickr if you like it.
What are you asking Mac Santa for this year?
What kind of cool Mac gifts are on your Christmas wish list this year?
I’m hoping to get iLife 11 as it’ll be a nice upgrade from my iLife 08. I’d like iWork 11 as well, but that’s not out just yet.
I’m also hoping Santa brings me an Apple iPad case. I love my iPad but lack a decent case.
And maybe a set of composite AV cables. I hear good things about people being able to project videos and photos on the TV and I’m thinking maybe I’d like to do that.
Waconia Christmas Lights House Spectacular
For years, there has been a house, a few miles from ours, that celebrates Christmas big time. And we never knew about it until this year.
The house has over 150,000 LED Christmas lights and they are all programmed to music.
This makes me think I need more lights on my house!
If you want to see the display, the address is 1729 Park Point Rd in Waconia, Minnesota 55387.

8 Super Awesome, or Strange, Christmas Songs
Every year, hundreds of artists sing the same old Christmas songs that everyone else does. Lame.
Thankfully, or maybe not, some songs come out that are unique and stand out from the rest.
Here are 8 unique, funny, or just plain weird Christmas songs.
All I Want For Christmas Is You by Vince Vance & The Valiants
I have to say, this is one of my favorites. I don’t know why, but I love it.
Actually, the best thing about this song is the video. Unfortunately, YouTube doesn’t allow me to embed the original version. If you want to see it, click here.
Are these festive?
Do Christmas lights need to be on the tree or are they fine in a pile on the floor?
Putting up Christmas lights.
Before it gets to cold I’m putting up the Christmas lights.
