Long time gone.....

Well it has been some time since I posted on here and things have been quite crazy at the Street household.

We are expecting a little girl in about 6 or 7 weeks!
Hopefully after her arrival I will be able to keep everyone up to date on Maritt through this blog.

Our days have consisted of house work (seems as if anything and everything is going wrong or needs to be repaired on the house) and getting the nursery ready. Addison also got a new room, which she loves.

Preparing for a baby is hard work.....hope I have everything I am suppose to.

Oh Lennox how I love thee...

Well summer is almost over, for those of you associated with school, but it sure has been a hot one.

Our air conditioner has been on a hiatus for the past few weeks. It would work one minute and then not work the next. Murphy punished it by chewing the wires one day, but the friendly people from HF AC came right over and repaired his mistake.

Wednesday was like Christmas......this is what arrived...I didn't know I could be so excited about something like this, but any of you who know me know that I DO NOT LIKE TO BE HOT!!

So here is to you Mr. Lennox................................................

You see your gypsy........

I grew up listening to their Rumors album, my parents were big fans and turned me on to great music at a very young age. This past weekend we ventured to Nashville to see my favorite band....Fleetwood Mac.

They rocked like they were in the 70's again and they continue to show their true talent.
All the hit songs were covered and of course I sang along to every one of them.

(images are not great as they were taken with Brian's blackberry)

Stevie.....isnt she just the coolest lady you know?

Mick was Brian's favorite.....I wish we would have gotten a pic of his red shoes!

I wanted to stay and be a groupie and follow them around the country, but Brian made me come back to the real world....

On a side note....if you are in the Vanderbilt area of Nashville stop by Noshville for a great breakfast! Their corned beef hash is awesome. http://www.noshville.com/

Doesn't every dog love Febreeze......Murphy sure does!

Christmas Christmas time is here..........

Time for laughter time for cheer...

You are singing it in your head now arent you (in a chipmunk voice)?

Thanksgiving is over and Christmas time is here..hooray. My favorite time of year.

The house is decorated and the shopping has begun.

The husband loves presents and Christmas, but not the decorations. He sighs when I say...Up to the attic for the decorations!

Here are a few pics from the new house decorated for the season.

My Grandmother gave me a nativity set this year that her Mother made some many years ago. I just love it and the sentimental value it entails.
