Happy New Year To Ya

Well, well, well. This girl has taken a well-deserved break from blogging. The longer I didn’t write, the more I realized I wanted to write. But hey, the eggnog and ham and fudge and standing rib roast were all calling me. Unfortunately, the scale had the last laugh. Ugh.

We had such a busy Thanksgiving and Christmas season in our household. In fact, it was so busy that it was Christmas Eve before I realized that the kids hadn’t created this year’s masterpiece gingerbread house. Oh, they were just ecstatic when I reminded them. “I did it last year.” “You do a better job, you do it.” “Do we have to?” Ah, the sounds of the season. Whatev.

Yes, they had to do it. And they did a marvy job. Look at them being all crafty and stuff.



Team work. “You hold it.” “No, you hold it.”



They look like little angels.



This is more their natural states.





Hey, at least I got that gingerbread house built. Mom rules.

Are you still recovering from your holiday? How much coffee does it take each day to remind yourself that it really isn’t a day off from work anymore? So tired.
