'Tis the Season







Happy Holidays!
Thanksgiving has come and gone, and what a great day it was. Corey
and Rebecca came for dinner, and I had lots of help.
A couple of years ago I had each of the kids pick which item they would like
to be in charge of for dinner. It really turned out well. This year, the boys did
all of the cleaning, and Phillip helped do the mashed potatos. Lex did rolls, and
Lolly did pies. YUM. It's so great to have so many hands helping.
Here we are in December, and we are in the full holiday spirit around here.
We have always waited until after Becca's birthday to put the tree up, but now
that she is married, I decided to put one up the day after Thanksgiving.
It was really fun. The kids don't exactly like putting up the decorations, but I think
that it was relatively painless. Next up, we had new family photos taken. I thought
it would be nice to have a nice picture for the Christmas card this year. We will be
celebrating Becca's b*day this weekend as she has finals on her birthday.
Let the baking begin, carols be sung, and all our days be "merry and bright".
xoxo
