A BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS TREE

HELLO AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS, I HOPE EVERYONE IS STILL ENJOYING THE HOLIDAYS. WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET ALL OF OUR LAST MINUTE GIFTS BOUGHT, YOU KNOW ,THE ONES YOU BUY FOR THAT HAS EVERYTHING!!!!!!

WE GOT UP YESTERDAY MORNING , AND WE ATE BREAKFAST.WE WERE LAZY FOR JUST A LITTLE WHILE AND THEN I RECIEVED A PHONE CALL FROM LEAH. SHE AND I TALKED FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. WANT TO KNOW SOMETHING FUNNY?? SHE WAS TELLING ME THAT HER DAUGHTER, EMMY, SAW A CD COVER WITH AMY GRANT'S PICTURE ON IT, WHEN SHE CAME INTO THE LIVING ROOM, SHE STARTED SAYING'' MOMMY, THERE'S DANA, MOMMY, THAT'S DANA'', MY FRIEND KEPT TELLING HER THAT WAS NOT ME, IT WAS AMY GRANT, BUT SHE WOULD NOT HEAR TO IT!!! THAT WAS SO FUNNY!!

AFTER WE CONCLUDED OUR CONVERSATION, CHRIS AND I GOT READY, AND OFF TO CHARLOTTE, WE WENT. WE DECIDED TO SPEND OUR DAY OFF TOGETHER, ON ONE OF OUR SO CALLED''DAY TRIPS''. WE SHOPPED FOR A WHILE AND ATE A LATE LUNCH AT MAGGIANO'S. IT WAS SO GOOD!!! WE WENT AND SHOPPED SOME MORE, AND BEFORE WE LEFT, MY SWEETIE AND ENJOYED SOMETHING SWEEET TOGETHER. FIRST OFF, LET ME TELL YOU THIS IS DEFINITLY A TREAT!!!! WE ATE DESSERT AT ''THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY''!!!!!!!

I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY. I HAD A HARD TIME TRYING TO DECIDE ON WHAT FLAVOR I WANTED, WOULD YOU NOT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM???

THEY HAVE A 31 FLAVORS OF CHEESECAKE TO CHOOSE FROM.

CHRIS DOESN'T EAT CHEESECAKE, SO THEY HAVE SEVERAL HOMEMADE LAYER CAKES TO CHOOSE FROM. LTOR-BLACKOUT CAKE, CARROT CAKE, AND LINDA'S FUDGE CAKE.
CHRIS DECIDED ON THE CARROT CAKE. IT WAS MOIST LAYERS OF CARROT CAKE WITH A THICK, RICH, CREAM CHEESE ICING, TOPPED WITH REAL WHIPPED CREAM. HE SAID IT RAN A CLOSE RACE WITH MY MOTHER'S!!! I TASTED IT, HE WAS RIGHT!!! AWESOME!!
I HAD A HARD TIME DECIDING TODAY, SO I DECIDED ON THE ORIGINAL WITH WHOLE STRAWBERRIES AND REAL WHIPPED CREAM!!! OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!

AFTER THIS TREAT WAS OVER, WE HEADED TO WALMART TO WALK OUR ''SLICE OF CAKE'' OFF, AND TO SHOP FOR A FEW MORE THINGS. THEN, WE HEADED HOME. WE BOTH ENJOYED OUR DAY OFF TOGETHER AND THE SPECIAL TREAT ALONG THE WAY. IT IS DEFINATELY ONE OF OUR SPECIAL ''SIMPLE GIFTS'', TODAY.LOLOLOL!!!
