Tis the Season

Wow, what a busy season this has been! I can't believe I haven't posted a THING since mid-December. Lots has happened and, thankfully, it's been all good. We've had Christmas performances, parties, birthdays, awana, church, work, family, the kids' vacation homework packet (wow, it was alot!) and on and on and on. Just yesterday I spent all day taking down the Christmas decorations. If you saw my house during Christmastime, you'd understand why it took all day. I LOVE to decorate for Christmas! Our tree had so many ornaments on it, garland was hung down the stairs, the manger scene was scattered with hay (which by the way is a pain the neck to clean up) and snowmen and toy soldiers decked every wall and mantle. Even our bathroom gets Christmas-ized! LOL It was nice to wake up this morning to a "normal" house - so clean and ready for the New Year. But isn't it funny how the house seems so plain now? So, I just wanted to check in and let you all know we LOVE you and wish only God's very best for you and your family in this New Year of 2009. Love, love, love your way!!!
