The Thursday before Christmas was a lot of fun. After work, BJ, his mom and I wandered around downtown and went Christmas shopping for ourselves. This is a tradition that BJ and his mom started before I was in the picture. A tradition that I happened to really enjoy. I got hubby two new pairs of shoes and hubby got me a pair of emerald drop earrings (they're fabulous, by the way).

BJ's mom then treated us to a night at a swanky hotel downtown, and we treated her to dinner at a swanky restaurant. The food, the wine and the conversation was great. After dinner, we decided that we'd continue spending time together back at the hotel after getting comfie in jammies and robes that were provided by the hotel.

When I came out of the bathroom, I saw hubby in his white robe and black socks. I teased him mercilessly, as I am prone to do. I tell him he looks like a little old man every time he wears black socks with anything other than pants.

Case in Point:

Then came the knock on the door. It was mom.

As soon as she walked in the door, I was on the floor laughing. They both just looked at each other like, "what?" I'm sure that Mom was wondering what her son's wife thought was so darned funny. I'm sure she wonders that a lot.

Check out the feet....

Hm. That does look a bit ready for the
discount menu. Now I don't feel so bad wearing my
white socks and black loafers.
Happy new year Risible. I'm proud of you.

I wasn't even laughing at the black socks, white robe thing, although that is
funny. It's the little faces that you put on hubby and his mom that gave me
the biggest guffaw! Glad you had fun!
