Wow- almost a month since I posted last- so much for good intentions!
We have had a quiet Christmas today. The kids got up at 7:00- we opened a few presents then had breakfast and opened the rest. Riley got the much anticipated guitar. We are gonna be wishing she had asked for something more quiet- like a book! Sam got a tool set- he has already smashed his thumb. But the kid is tough and kept on banging.
I have really enjoyed this holiday season. I have made several gifts this year (more on that later) I had a little party here for a few ladies from sunday school- we had a great, laid back time. Riley and I have been doing an advent calendar- and that has really focused me to make this christmas about the memories- hopefully I'll be uploading more on that.
I made out like a bandit this year- new flooring for my dining room, new bedding, an otoscope- I have wanted one forever, and jewelry and slippers. Good haul for me!
Well I have got to get the food out of the oven- lunch is taking longer than I expected but everyone except the guitar princess is napping- so we're good! Merry Christmas!
