I learned last night that it's not a good idea to read ghost stories when I can't fall asleep.
"She heard the knock again. This time, it came from the next room. She crept around the corner, closer to the door, closer, closer, and then... ::HONK::"
S@#$!
Honk-ssssss-hkh-sssssssss-hkh-sssssss......
Did I mention Chris snores?
I jumped about 2 feet in the air. Probably not literally, but I am surprised I didn't wake the snoree.
Lesson learned: Don't read ghost stories next to a snoring husband.

Childhood Christmas Traditions: Jingle Bells, Rooftops, and Blindfolds, Oh My
Shout out to my parents for always making sure the holidays were and are special. Thank you and I love you.
Here's a rundown of Christmas morning with my parents. (Most of this happens to this day-when we can be there.)

Williston, ND Inspired Christmas Carols
Christmas carols inspired by Williston, ND.
Said the night wind to the 5th Wheel Trailer,
Do you feel what I feel,
Temps close to -30 degrees Fahrenheit,
Do you feel what I feel,
A breeze, more like a wind, chilling you in the night,
That will force you to buy booties for your dog,
That will force you to buy booties for your dog.
Said the tumble weed to those left in Williston,
Do you hear what I hear,
A whole lot of nothing because everyone else in town went home,
Do you hear what I hear,
A song, a song, blaring from my stereo,
It's too quiet because everyone else has left,
It's too quiet because everyone else has left.
Santa baby, just slip some ear muffs under the tree for me;
It's a super tiny tree, Santa baby,
Santa baby, a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon will do, Chris wants one too,
Do You Hear What I Hear

Santa Baby
Santa baby, just slip some ear muffs under the tree for me;
It's a super tiny tree, Santa baby,
It's camper sized and blinks when it's plugged in.
Santa baby, a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon will do, Chris wants one too,
My Volvo is tiny compared to these trucks, Santa baby,
Maybe then I'll make it down these gravel roads.

Home Free on The Sing-Off, America's Happiest Competition Show
Hey! Hey! I know him!
The Sing-Off is back on NBC for it's fourth season, and this season Home Free is on the roster. I'm a little biased since I sang with one of the members back in college. I knew Rob was part of a group called Home Free, but I hadn't heard them in action before now.
They are so good! They've made it to the finals, check them out here on NBC' The Sing-Off.
Here are some of my favorites from the show so far.
Updated 12/27/13: In case you hadn't heard, Home Free won The Sing-Off! I can't wait to see what happens next. So proud.

You seriously need to check these guys out.
Here are some of my favorites from the show so far.
Home Free: "Oh, Pretty Woman"
