Ok, so I was just wishing for that last part! Why is Christmas so freakin hectic! We went to the light show in O’Fallon park and it was pretty cool….
We have a breakfast with Santa coming up, bake offs, cookie exchanges and oh…. and Dave has a side job illustrating a children’s book. I think it’s so cool. We aren’t allowed to “divulge” the books intentions, but damn I want to Dave said he signed a non disclosure agreement. It’s for the preschool crowd, is all you’re getting. Until it comes out then, I’m going to be ALL about it. It’s a great book. I wish I’d thought of it.
We had some family pictures taken with the hopes of Christmas pictures, but the younger two, not naming names, Vivi & Liza, weren’t having it. SO, we have some pictures, but some of us are grumpier than others. Also, some of us had to be told to stop holding our penis like it was going to fly away. Not sure what that is about, but whatever.
It was a beautiful day, but have you ever had 5 kids look happy in the exact same direction all at the same time? If so, I applaud you.
The dresses were made by my good friend Susan Sheppard, and she will make them upon request! Her email is sheppardsn@yahoo.com. I highly recommend her, as it wasn’t easy accommodating something for ages 2-10 that was alike. And we all know how much I love to match. (Thank you Susan!!) The dresses are beautiful!
So, our tree is up and 99% of gifts are wrapped. We just need to get all of the “holiday” stuff over with so we can have a Merry Christmas! And oh what a Christmas it will be! Somebody is getting a new bike and somebody is getting a sledgehammer like double edge knife thingy. And it might be the somebody who can’t stop holding his penis. This might be a cure??
Anyway, we wish you ALL the merriest of Christmasses!! And the very best new year.
