I'm not sure if it's just me or if all of you feel there is more sadness happening around Christmas time this year. All of which have been accidents and tragic for all involved. This breaks my heart for the families involved. I can't help but think of presents that may be under the tree that won't get opened by that person, traditions that won't be the same with out that certain someone, and just not being able to hug and love daily. It's just sad. I love this song and I hope you will hear something that makes you enjoy your Christmas a little bit more this year.

We had yet another cookie swap and pajama party last Saturday night. The boys had a blast and we had great food! When I think of cookie swap, I think of several different cookies that can be frozen and taken out when you need them. Needless to say, I was wrong. You come home with a few dozen cookies that have to be eaten THEN or they go bad. Not good for a waistline on top of all of the other holiday food!! ;) Thankfully, but not really, I got sick Sunday and haven't been able to taste a thing, so I wasn't even tempted this go around! Then I shared with the boys' teachers Tuesday to get out of the
house!

Not much has happened this week with me sick. The boys have gotten away with everything because I have not felt like arguing or disciplining and Mark has come home late and that's the last thing he wants to do. So yes, my house looks like a zoo, a whole container of cookies were eaten in one setting (Anderson) and baths were skipped 2 nights, BUT they/we survived. Now I'm praying they don't get anything right before Christmas.
We are excited that Pops and MaC are coming for a visit this weekend. The boys have been waiting on them to come and have several things they want to do and show them. One of which is eating fish! Bently thinks you can only get fish at the beach! ;) Mark and I are hoping they watch the boys for a few hours while we take care of a project and hope they the two of us can tackle it! Pictures to come Christmas of just what this is. Merry Christmas and have a wonderful weekend. For those of you traveling, be careful...we will be all day next Thursday!

Love to all
