1) How great is it that "The Princess Bride" is on VH1 tonight? Inconceivable!
2) Our (four-foot-tall fake) Christmas tree is up and glowing beautifully in our little living room. I love Christmas.
3) We are going to send out a Christmas letter this year. I'm not sure if you're supposed to wait until you have photos of your cherubic children to send with the letter, but we're still going to send the letter. If you want a copy, let me know. Dan is going to be in charge of printing up address labels, which is also going to help us by providing an address database of all those addresses I collected when we were sending out wedding invitations. Much more convenient than the "Maybe-that-one-is-written-on-this-paper-napkin system we currently have going.
4) The new U2 album totally rocks. Very God-laced, very thought-provoking, very good. Run out and buy it, folks.
5) We bought tickets today to see Sarah McLachlan in concert in April. I am so excited. I know I am a nerd, but I just don't care. I love living in a city that occasionally attracts concerts from people I would like to see perform.

What's making y'all happy?
