Busy…Busy…Busy…that’s really all I can say. Michael left on Thanksgiving day to head back to North Carolina, and we haven’t stopped since!! With Christmas shopping, wrapping, baking, school, and parties….whew. I’m ready for a break. I was off all last week and had hoped to have gotten a lot done, and I guess I did, but I could have done more. Christian finished up his last week of school before the break, we had ice one morning and school was delayed, and of course a party. Colin was with me the whole week, so come this past Monday for returning to work/daycare he wanted nothing to do with it. He got so spoiled, and I admit I loved every minute of it. Christian was a little jealous he wasn’t able to stay home with me, but enjoyed being a car rider every day, and leaving early the day of his party while the other kids finished up the day. I had a work party, and did all my baking! I’m very proud that I did all the baking this year without my mom doing it for me! I have been done with my shopping for about 2 weeks, so I can sit back and relax while everyone else is panicking to find those last minute gifts. Plus everything is wrapped! I accomplished my grocery shopping last night, with both boys, and having only 2 registers opened at 6 o’clock in the evening! Now we can relax and wait for the big day to arrive! The house is cleaned, food prep is finished, and we are excited to see Michael on Friday night! He will be home sometime after dinner, and we can’t wait! It will have been a month since he left, I think the boys are more excited to see him than Christmas actually being here. We are planning a low key, laid back Christmas weekend. Spending time as a family, visiting with our extended family, and eating way too much! But hey, it’s the holidays!
Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!!
