...that is what I feel like right now…
Back in November when plans were made for all the Christmas parties I was relieved that the get-togethers were going to be spread out throughout the month of December. They started the 13th with my mom’s side of the family, then this Saturday with Ryan’s huge family, my mom the next day and then wrapping everything up Christmas Eve with my dad and Day with Ryan’s parents, instead of cramming them all in the week of Christmas. I thought that it would be easier to get things done and I wouldn’t be so rushed….well I thought incorrectly. I have yet to finish wrapping and I need to fix dinner for new parents in our Sunday School class and a dish for this Saturday’s party and two for Christmas Day, bake cookies, Jesus’ birthday cake (which Brandon reminds me of daily!) and monkey bread Christmas morning. The first graders have their Christmas concert tomorrow night, which Brandon was a little bitter about since he has been wanting to learn how to play the guitar since he was able to talk but he isn’t big enough yet and the teacher gave a little solo to the kids who play an instrument. We have explained that once he turns 8 he can start lessons so now he is counting down the days, less than a year and a half! I have wanted to take the boys to see Santa but I am not sure it’s going to happen and I highly doubt that the younger boys will sit on his lap.
Brandon has his part done, his letter sent and now he’s counting down the days.
I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!!

I've never made monkey bread. Will you send me your recipe?
mmmmmm....I haven't had monkey bread in forever. And someone should have warned me that once you get married, the holidays suddenly become stressful! But, now I kind of don't think the holidays wouldn't be the same if the hustle and bustle wasn't involved! Have a Merry Christmas!
