MERRY CHRISTMAS!

The family enjoyed a Christmas Eve service and then hurried home to do some gift unwrapping!! Before I could get out of my church clothes, the kids were jumping around like kangaroos.....no energy at all :) Some of the fun gifts included a family board game, Nintendo DS's, electric blanket, DVD player, a dog that sings, a tie that sings, legos, and finally some clothing. Lots of fun was had and now we await the arrival of Santa to fill our stockings. The kids will be excited to empty the surprises in the morning. We are very thankful for the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. We pray that each one of you has a personal relationship with Him and has a wonderful time with family and friends this Christmas season. May all of you be blessed in the New Year.

I think I can.....I think I can......

Okay, I've been a little slow on the uptake and creativity to pour into this site. I'm looking into some updates and will see what I can do before the year end :) It just seems like the house hold chores continue to keep me busy with little time to spair. Maybe I just need a house cleaner!!! What a wonderful idea for my hubby for Christmas.....one of you should suggest it:) I'll wait to hear the results.

Our family was able to travel for Thanksgiving to Illinois. Along with the bird and stuffing we also got to enjoy Christmas early with Nana and Auntie Chris. What a delight that was for the kids and then to come home to snow was a great joy for them also. Glad we made it back before the roads were too icey. Hopefully by this weekend, we'll be off for the family tree hunt!! What fun that is, especially when there is snow on the ground. Gotta love the tree hunt and then some hot cocoa to follow. Yummmmmmmm......g'night to all and have a wonderful Tuesday.
