So Jess and I were in JoAnns (quit laughing guys; if it hasn't happened to you yet, at some point it will) and we were looking for fabric to make stockings for our first Christmas together. Turns out they were having a big sale (Most things were marked off 60%) and we ended up getting a bunch of other stuff we had been wanting to get for Christmas. One thing in particular that Jessica wanted to get was some ribbon for our wreath. We, mainly she, narrowed it down to three designs. We couldn't pick one though, we liked them all. We even tried holding them up to wreaths in the store, but it didn't help; they were all good. So the man-answer came: "Let's just roll them down the aisle and which ever one goes the furthest is the winner." She went for it. I rolled them and Golden Swirl took a quick turn out of the race. It was a close call but Christmas Trees beat Ornaments in the end. "Let's do it again just to make sure." Gold Swirl was out in the beginning again, and Ornaments had the lead until the very end. We bought the Christmas Trees.
I'm drinking eggnog as I write this, enjoying it to the fullest and soaking up as much Christmas as I can (It's my FAVORITE time of the year), wondering what you look forward to or if you have any similar crazy-makeshift-pony races with ribbon stories.
