Wha'd Up?

Less than two weeks until Christmas!!! We got our gifts bought, trees are up and we are ready for the big day and to spend time with the fam.

Twin 2's bus driver is in the Christmas spirit.  When she got on the bus yesterday morning Christmas decorations and an elf bus driver greeted.  Can't beat that service.  


This past Saturday Twin 2 had her annual Christmas party.  It was a quiet one but it was nice for everyone to get together.  It usually happens twice a year, one during the birthday bbq in July and the other at Christmas.  We planned on having a fire because it was such a beautiful night but the wood was too wet so that plan failed.

This past Sunday Twin 1 and her hubby took a trip to Truro to meet a friends baby boy for the first time and watched some football while there.  Meanwhile Twin 2 went to a co-workers Christmas open house.  

Neither of us socialize much throughout the year but it seems like we make up for it the month of December.  That's enough.

Christmas haircut this weekend!! Still not sure if we'll continue trying to grow out the hair or chop er all off again.  We also have Christmas with Greg this weekend.  Whoot!!

Tip Tuesday

Turn your cheat day around

Feeling guilty about that giant ice cream sundae you enjoyed on the weekend? Don't beat yourself up! It takes a lot of calories—3,500—to gain a pound of body fat. "So really, that one off day doesn't usually result in any significant weight gain," says Newgent. It's about what you do the next day and the day after that's really important—so don't stay off-track. So be sure to whittle away at those extra calories over the next day or two, preferably by boosting exercise rather than eating too little. Starvation is not the healthy answer!
