Well Christmas has come and gone. I for one, am SO thankful that the hustle and bustle is over. At least for another year. The kids had a blast and made the usual HUGE mess of wrapping paper and packaging in the living room floor. I made the usual HUGE mess of the kitchen with all the cooking and baking! ;P It wasn't the usual big family get together we normally have since Mahmaw (my grandmother) is in a rehab center for her latest pseudomonal pneumonia outbreak. So, on Christmas Eve, after we opened our gifts and ate our Christmas dinner, we drove to the Life Care center and met the rest of my family there. We enjoyed desserts and all the kids opening their gifts. It was a joy to see everyone and all the smiles that the coming together of a loving family can create! I hope you all enjoyed your crazy Christmas as much as we did! Now I can officially say...have a Happy New Year!
