Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Trailer
I CAN’T WAIT!!! They included the Brockdale Bridge and everything! (that’s my favorite part – sitting in anticipation of what DID make it into the movie!)
216 days and counting…
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…
Jason’s mom & dad have been house-hunting the last few weeks. They think now’s a good time to buy another property and then rent it out (they live about 15 minutes from us now). But the main plan is whatever they buy, they’re going to rent to us. Which would be nice. We were planning to look ourselves this spring, b/c we need a place w/ 3 bedrooms (Maggie’s in our bedroom right now, but there’s no room for any of her “stuff”. But they’re thinking that if they put the down payment, etc it would be better, b/c we can’t afford a ton right now. That way we could get a bigger home. I think they may even be thinking about turning around and selling the house to us at a huge discount, but I don’t know if we’ll let them.
But if we move further away, then I do have to find a new doctor for both Maggie and myself. And I really like the ones I have. :-/ Oh well.
I made a last minute decision yesterday to make a trip to Iowa to see my family. It’s about 3-4 hours each way and the weather looks good this weekend. I’ve been feeling really homesick, so I’m going. 
And my mom is sad because it’s been almost 2 months since she’s seen Maggie and she’s changed so much since then! Jason will be super busy all weekend, so I wouldn’t see him anyway.
Went to the Big Mall last Saturday with friends. We thought we were absolutely crazy doing it, being so close to Christmas, but it was the PERFECT time to go, considering the season. The mall was open until 11, we went about 8:30 or so. And we got parking right up front (and it wasn’t the only space there either!) and although there were a lot of people in the mall, the stores themselves weren’t that crowded. So, if you MUST go to the Big Mall during the season – go then!
Maggie is in love with this stuffed Elmo that belongs to Jason’s sister. She just smiles and giggles whenever we play with it. Today we’re going to take her 3-month pictures. WE can’t believe how much she’s changed in the last month!
