Bring it on!

Well, its here now. Christmas is upon us. I am as ready as I will ever be. Bring on the eating and drinking and merry making. I have more than half of my wrapping to do still along with a few loads of laundry and some house cleaning. The wrapping will get done, the laundry and house cleaning will get divvied up amongst whoever is free to do it.

Looks like Dean should be off work for Christmas day at least, maybe more and as I write, Craig, Gen, Steph and Todd are due in town any moment now. I am watching out my window to see if I can see them drive by.

It hasn't felt much like Christmas to me yet, but I am sure having the kids home will do it for me. Always a mom first and foremost.

Tassie knows its Christmas, ever since I finished decorating the tree the second time and got my little M&M town set up under it with my fibre-optic gingerbread house, she has been sniffing around it hoping for a chance to rip something open. WE MUST REMEMBER NOT TO LEAVE HER HOME ALONE WITH ACCESS TO THE GIFTS UNDER THE TREE! She will open them if she gets a chance. She is also paying some attention to the stockings this year and has been much more spry than usual this past week.

Cricket is as Cricket does.

I hope Craig feels like cooking tonite, it would sure help me out and Stephanie and Kaitlin can do the dishes.

Awww... Life is good.
