What's So Funny?

Silly post tonight...just to say that Carter cracks us up! The lil' dude has been in quite a good mood of late and was just cracking up the other night before dinner. Captured a quick little video to share his completely infectious laugh:



In other random news, the Greenies are looking forward to a quiet Christmas at home (I'm working all next week, Matt is off). The tree is up and Santa already has a few presents for Carter (waiting to wrap them on Christmas Eve):
You can't quite see them in the photo, but Matt and I exchange ornaments each year. Something to "symbolize" the year and add a little clutter to the tree. This year, Matt got me an adorable little snowman family (I'm easy...I LOVE snowmen), I got Matt an RV ornament (from "Christmas Vacation"...Cousin Eddie's RV...it even plays a few quotes from the movie - hilarious!), and Carter got his first Christmas ornament (a silver teddy bear).

Figure by the time we're 80, the tree will be so cluttered with randomness, it'll actually be pretty cool! And well, we'll be able to reminisce about our wacky youth, eh?

Alas...the weather is getting colder, but the daylight hours will soon start being longer (solstice on the 21st!). I'm looking forward to summer already!

PS And the symbolism of the RV ornament: Matt [annoyingly] sings "Holiday Road" from the original "Vacation" movie on pretty much every car trip longer than 30 minutes. So when I saw the RV, it was just PERFECT to symbolize the year. "That there is an RRRRRVeeee!"

  1. That laugh makes my heart melt - what a happy guy! And we do the ornament thing each year, too; random, mismatched trees with meaning are the best!!
