Cookie stand from x-mas eve.

So pretty.

Cute ring from Chloe - love it!

(my hand looks old and wrinkly...)

The house is quiet today....

Darryl took the kids to Mexico this

morning for a quick visit with Grandma Margie.

The house is quiet and I am enjoying a slow

morning. I have a big pot of chicken stock

simmering on the stove and the house

smells good.

We had a great Christmas! Chloe

wrote out the Christmas message on the

chalk board. Didn't notice till much later

that threw was spelt wrong.. oh well,

we all know the story.

Christmas morning magic.

Photo taken while hunting for our

Christmas tree. There was a beautiful

ridge behind them. Tonight we go

to view Chrismtas lights in our

neighborhood.

Almost ready...

I finished all my shopping and running

around today - phew! I think I am ready.

Kids gifts - all done

Baking - all done

x-mas cards sent

Food shopping for x-mas eve, x-mas

morning and x-mas dinner - done.

Wine, candles - done.

Just want to pick up some fresh flowers

tomorrow, and only a little

cleaning left to do

and I will be ready to just relax

& enjoy.

Sugar and spice...and everything nice

Santa's helpers...

Cookie making day went really well.

Taylor & Chloe helped a lot and things

went really quickly. We whipped out

about 15 dozen cookies in 4 hours!

We are officially ready for

the holidays!
Thanks Mom!

Movie night

Last night we watched "Elf" with

Will Farrell - hilarious! I forgot just

how funny that movie is. We got plenty

of laughs.

Decorated a gingerbread house too.
We tried putting a votive candle inside to
lite it up - not a good idea, things started
to melt off - ooops! Today I will get one of
those little fake candles to put in there.
I think it turned out cute.
