...the christmas tree is up and decorated, the gingerbread houses are built, the presents are wrapped (well almost all of them), the boys made snowglobes, painted ornaments and made gifts for their friends, ella is fighting a head cold (this is really hard to watch since she is so helpless), daddy gets an extra day off tomorrow (YEAH!), and we are about to put the frosting on Jesus' birthday cake. tonight we will have fondue and watch chevy chase christmas movies with stacey's family but tomorrow, for the first time EVER, we will spend christmas day alone. i am a little sad that my kids will not have all of their cousins around like i did growing up but mostly excited to not be rushing around town to drop off and open gifts from both sides of our family. i am excited to spend this christmas with my family in quiet reflection on Jesus' birthday. only one guest has been invited this year and i expect He will show up to our family christmas dinner in new ways this year!
merry christmas to all our "family"!
