Large

That's the size I am now. Last Christmas I was size XXL. Now I am L! Whoo hoo. I tried on Pea Coats at Target to see what size I am so my husband knew what size to buy, and the L fit perfect! I was surprised because I am big chested so usually tops are hard to fit in that area so I have to buy a bigger size.
Then I went to Sports Chalet because my awesome Mom gave me a gift card there. I needed padded bike shorts, with this new bike... man oh man does it hurt your bum! [and I am ticked I left my bike seat cover on one of the bikes at the gym and someone stole it...grrr]. Anyways, I grabbed an XL just out of habit, and they were too big! L fit me perfectly. Yippee!
I always say things in my head like, "Oh well this size must run big." or "this stores sizes are off.", but really.. maybe I just am a L A R G E now everywhere!
This may seem very insignificant, but I use to always be a Medium in high school. I am only one size away from that! Hurray. :0
I am so excited for Christmas!!!! More than the boys I think. ;) I can't wait until they open their Buzz Light Year's! They will jump up and down for days. Shane keeps saying to everyone, "Buzz is coming on Christmas!" it's so cute.
Shane burned his hand today on the stove, poor little guy. He's been in pain all day. It's not a horrible burn but all burns are very painful. I think he learned to not touch the stove. Hard lesson. :(
Our church is so amazing here. We have received many blessings from church family this Christmas. Groceries on our doorstep, gift cards, toys for the boys, such a blessing! God is so good. God always knows too, because Davey doesn't have work until mid-January again. Merry Christmas everyone! I am thankful for Jesus' birth!

Merry Christmas! Congratulations on L and I know the feeling about thinking everything must run big or my issue, this looks so -- small and convincing myself it won't fit before I even try it on. ha ha

Sorry about Shane. Hope he gets better soon.
