I love your NOEL.

My boys mess with my nativity scene. Sometimes it's not very holy.

I'm not so much into the blow-up Christmas decor either. And this year I'm kind of tired of what we do have for the yard, so it may not get put up. Good thing you're not coming here with a prize. I wouldn't get it.

Vanessa said...

So because I have an inflatable Santa/Elves helicopter, is that a deal breaker?

Holy Hell Augustine, your roosters DO NOT go with your home decor.

I'm wondering how it is that I've never seen that Wham video, but I sure did enjoy it. Thanks for a little old-school George.

gina bina said...

You crack me up girl! Especially the 3rd grade rollerskating hand holding. Classic.

XOXO

Mandy said...

I, too, wanted (well, still sort of want) George. I was going to marry him. Or let him marry Paula Abdul. They were my fav. Too bad they are both a little crazy now. :)

Laura said...

Hello!!! She-Pratt is throwing it all up! How do we not know this, Mindi!?! You are certainly not caught up on your trash mags! Do better! :)

Tiffany said...

I love your crafty-craft. It's very swanky and cool. Plus, my dad's name is Leon. I thought you should know.

Your random thoughts are so fun. Sorry it didn't work out with you and George Michael.

Kendra said...

K - the whole Adrian Weiss thing was cracking me up... how do you remember all this stuff???

kami @ nobiggie.net said...

I love Mindi's random thoughts. I love the GLEE version! thanks for that. The Noel is awesome framed like that!

Remind me next time we are together to tell you my Run Leon Run Joke. You will love it!
