2010 is quickly coming to a close.
There are really only a few short days left to make this year awesome before it’s gone and you’re stuck living with a mediocre year on your conscious for the rest of eternity.
Don’t let that happen to you.
Do something amazing while you still have time.
Or, as an alternative to greatness, you can suck really badly so that 2011 can seem that much more great.
That’s what we’re planning; 3 final days of less than awesome living so we have something to work towards in 2011.
More on that later.
Today’s post is all happy-happy-joy-joy about what Christmas at The Casa was like.
Because you care, I know you do.
All of you who assume I’m some sort of really amazing, unfairly attractive, successful at pretty much everything type person will be happy to know that as awesome as I am, we celebrate the holidays pretty much the exact same way as most other, arguably less awesome, people do.
We decorate (this just so happens to be my most cherished holiday decoration ever)…
We exchange gifts (a little before, during, & after of Christmas morning as proof)…
We eat a bunch of seriously delightful goodness (all of which is prepared from scratch by yours truly)…
And, we enjoy each other.
You know, like mostly.
But, because we are so committed to living awesomely, we also take things to another level at The Casa.
A holiday decorating session with a little Dumb rubbed on it…
Take particular note of the nutty going on in the background of that last photo. It pretty much sums up life at Casa de Dummies, cluttered floor, flying toddler and all.
It’s easy to see why this Dumb Mom so freakin’ loves the holidays!
Fun times. Fun food. Fun Dudes. And fun gifts too!
What?
Didn’t I tell you what Dumb Dad got me?!
Yep, ‘cause I deserve it.
Don’t ask. Just believe.
And there you have it, friends, last Wordful Wednesday of 2010 so don’t eff yours up make it good!
2011 is gonna be epic (as in I have a HUGE WW surprise coming up for next week, so go ring in the New Year with a bang, and make sure you have yourself back over here to the Casa next Wednesday so you don’t mess around and miss it!).
You’ll see!

If you’re cooking like that, I’d like an invitation next year. Please. Flying toddler and all!
Looks like a great Christmas. And Dumb Dad did good. Or is it well? Well, whatever…it’s a great gift.
LOL — I love your kids. Just because of the pictures you get. LOVE ‘em.
Score on the present from Dumb Dad! LOL That’s awesome.
Looks like you had a fabulous holiday
So now we can play words with friends, right? Dumb Dad rocks. And so did your Christmas!
p.s. thank u for the card and little extra! MWAH!
Looks like you had a great time! Fun to see your family photos.
So jealous of your iPad
What the what? I am so loving your casa!
That last photo of the flying toddler is seriously cool. I thought only mine could walk on air. lol.
I’m glad you had a fantabulouslyfuneatingplaying Christmas.
Oh and gosh a OemGee…I mean an Ipad! So cool. So dish, is it as good as advertised?
I am so rocking this year…I surely accomplished my resolution. I’ll be waiting to see which rock to climb onto in the 2011.
Happy time . lol (have you seen that ad? )
Aloha!
Looks like you had a bunch of fun!
I got an iPad too! FUN!!!!
I totally didn’t make my last WW amazing. Because you know, I’m going for the slacker angle so that I can rock 2011. (Or because I’m all holiday’d out and feeling lazy and slackerish so that is my excuse)
Congrats on your iPad. Holy sweetness!
Dumb Dad is a GENIUS!! Great post – fun holiday times at your house – love the Shrek ears!!
You definitely deserve that gift, and I DO TOO! SO where is mine? Hmmm??
I love your pictures, y’all just look like so much fun!
nice! i want an iPad too! Maybe i can introduce your hubby to mine so he can influence my hubby heheh
#1: Your family is gorgeous
#2: Your house looks like a fun place to be. Can I come visit?
#3: You SO FUCKING deserve that iPad. Sweeeetnesss!!!
Looks like the perfect xmas. Wanna adopt me?
Looks like an awesome Christmas! (Though that last photo does NOT depict a cluttered floor. If you want to see clutter, come over to our house!)
I love Christmas at your house. It looks a lot like ours. Smiles galore, wrapping paper everywhere and complete chaos in the background. My kind of Christmas and my kind of family.
Looks like you had a great one.
I can NOT believe how Dude #1 is looking SO grown up! I feel like the relative that says that after not seeing them for a year “Oh my, look how you’ve grown” haha
And can I just say the jealousy is raging that you got an ipad. I got a computer but sheesh not an ipad!
You have some fun loving kids there. And boy did you say your last WW for 2010 in a blast off way.
That flying toddler bit really IS amazing!
What the What? And all!
It’s been so long since I got jiggy with the WW that I forgot how to link up and left my NAME as my linky. Duh. My post is much cooler than my name. Like I totally promise. For reals.
Oh forget it.
Merry Merry and all that…
Those are hilarious! I love the progress pics.
Visiting from Hobo Mama and Natural Parents Network!
I love the flying toddler pic.
Your present is awesome!
Gotta love holidays, toddlers, and (not so) dumb husbands!
Wonderful pictures!!! I cant believe its almost 2011!!!
The Fam is GORGEOUS!!!!! Nice swag too, that’s certainly not a dumb hubby, good job!! Happy 2011 !!
Oh yes, looks like a fun time. Love your gift.
That looks like such a fun day! We had one as well
Lucky, lucky you! I still haven’t seen one in real life. I am afraid I will want it too badly 
Could I borrow your camera? Your shots are always so awesome!
Your family has so much fun! Adorable!
Great gift!
Dumb Dad is awesome
Happy WW and a very Happy New Year!
That last shot is priceless! And your kids are beautiful!
Looks like Dumb Dad isn’t so dumb after all…that’s a great gift!
Happy WW
Total awesomeness. Love that photo with your little guy flying through the air in the background! And awesome gift! Dumb Dad did good.
Love the “action” shots during Christmas morning!! Looks like you guys had an awesome Christmas!
Can’t wait to see what you have in store for next Wednesday!
Looks like a great Christmas. I did my Christmas Eve recap but I still need to do Christmas Day. Tomorrow will be that post. Congrats on the iPad. It seems that it was an iPad Holiday.
What a fabulous Christmas! Just as it should be, filled with happy kids just being kids
LOVE it!
Have a very happy New Year!
The flying toddler is adorable!
Wow, you must have been GOOD!!!
I’m glad I picked today to visit–These pics really made me smile
Happy New Year!
Whoops! I’m such a dork! I added my link twice. Looks like I left quite an impression for the last WW of 2010.
Anyhoo, your photos are so much fun. My favorite photo is the Shreking the Halls photo. That’s brilliant! Your Christmas looks just like ours, minus the iPad, of course. Man, if only I was as awesome as you. I have so much to learn.
My favorite
BTW…Feel free to edit my comment. I seriously cannot type today! What is wrong with me today?
I got an iPad too and I returned it. Dumb, huh?
Your family is beautiful! I love the action shot where the kid is flying = )!!
I’m your newest follower! Please stop by and say hi at Single Mom Says
Oh my it’s been FOREVER since I’ve taken part of WW! Good to hear, er, SEE, that I don’t have the only crazy family around! Love your gift, btw!
You got your ipad. Be sure to tell me what apps rock your world. Also, I love your Santa decoration. Is there a story behind it? Do you make your own syrup, too?
I’m kidding so if you say yes, I’ll feel inadequate. So glad you had a nice Christmas. Looking forward to ringing in the New Year in a few days. And with you, every. single. Wednesday. And Tuesday night. Oh, did you get mobile me? Is your regular computer a mac? I can’t get my calendars to sync up with mobile me on my ipad and laptop.
P.S. “You got your ipad” is supposed to be screamed. So exciting.
It must have been a really great christmas.. whao on the IPAD..
Looks like you had a GREAT Christmas:-)
Wow, I might have to set my 3 ladies up with your boys – they all have a bit of the ‘crazy’ in them too… And man, are your men little lady-killers – even with a bit of ‘dumb’ rubbed in! LOL. Glad you stopped by for WW. What a nice discovery! Cheers!
Great photos, as always! YAY for the iPad. Are you in love with it yet? Mine is always within arms’ reach.
Shrek ears and iPads? Best Christmas ever!
