Merry Christmas

The hustle and bustle of Christmas is over and I am little sad. I love the anticipation leading up to the holidays and then it seems to be over so quickly. I am glad to have the wrapping and the baking finished the holiday madness at every store seeming to slow down. The sunshine feels nice and the giant mound of snow in front of our house is finally melted into a huge puddle for the boys to jump in but nonetheless I am grateful for the wonderful holiday season. 
We all enjoyed the wrapping and unwrapping, George being the fast unwrapper and Jack the meticulous slow unwrapper. John got his infamous Ironing Board. I hope the end of 2008 finds everyone happy and healthy.  Happy New Year!

I totally agree, you decorate, shop, bake, and within what seems like a few days everything is over:( I agree, it is sad, I love the holidays. Gosh, before you know it, it's going to be February, and Daren & April will be getting married:)

I iron my clothes every week, and I have been using the table-top ironing board for the last six years...so I asked for a new ironing board!
