The time has come…

So, the time has come to say goodbye… LOL not really but I do have to make a decision about what I want to do with this blog. I know I want to keep blogging but I am just not sure where yet. I have to decide by tomorrow because I cannot add anymore new stuff after then.
 
 I have been playing around with WordPress and I can’t say I like it. It seems too complicated and I don’t really like the backgrounds/layouts. I worked with Blogger for my English class blog last semester and I like that one a little better but still not as much as MSN Spaces. Plus I have no idea how to transfer this blog over to there. I know I can do it on WordPress. I will have to make my final decision and move tomorrow. Good thing I have low key New Years Eve planned, ha. My husband always thinks about going out but then declares it amatuer night and says it is not safe to be out. I don’t really care either way. Most years, this one included, I am content to stay home with just my hubby, or with family and friends.

Holiday Nights

My husband and I went to Holiday Nights at Greenfield Village down in Dearborn, Michigan. It is one of my favorite places ever. I haven’t been in a couple of years so I was so happy to go Monday night even if it was after Christmas. It was a lovely evening. I feel ill equipped to do it justice. All I can say is that it will transport you back in time, and gives a taste of the old customs, which is fabulous; the sights, sounds and smells – it is a romantic and sentimental excursion. I really need to make  a resolution to go to both Greenfield Village and Crossroads Village (another historical village closer to wear I live) before Christmas every year. I enjoy it tremendously and makes me realize the true spirit of Christmas.
