Merry Christmas...

may the loving spirit of Christmas be with you all year long..

See what happens when Daddy is in charge...

we seperated briefly to shop and the baby conned her Daddy into getting her ears pierced!!! I ran into oldest girly at Ann Taylor loft and she said Emme's getting her ears pierced at Claire's.. Dad tried to call you!! I dropped what I had and ran..walked down to Claire's and when I looked in the window..there she sat, so tall and so proud and not one single tear.. She is beyond thrilled.. and oh. by the way, she wanted to wear her hair down today and not in her standard barbie flip... I think my tomboy is getting girly!! The middle girly was so happy for her she was giddy that she is making the turn to prissy like her!

So just when I thought ...

I was caught up with the laundry..lo and behold 5 more loads..seriously where do they hide this stuff!!! Just a few more gifts to purchase and I am done. I could kick myself, but I am catering a job Christmas EVE!! I should be home by 7 though..it's the economy damn it, I couldn't say NO!!

Why oh why...

do I sign up to be a homeroom mother every year?? I stuffed 24 mugs full of cocoa, pepermint sticks and chocolate.. made 2 dozen cut out and decorated sugar cookies.. and to boot we are going to make make monogrammed Christmas ornaments!! I love helping out, but with my catering business in full bloom I am pooped.. it is 11:48am, is it to early for a cocktail!!??

On a serious note, I like winter break, because quite frankly, I NEED IT!!!

Say it ain't so,,,

I have been, and I am serious, happily married to the most wonderful, man, son, brother, friend I know, for 16 years today!! Happy Anniversary Tiger!! You had me at Beer!! inside joke..
