♪♫ It's the most wonderful time of the year... ♫♪
Well, ONE of the most wonderful times of the year...
Why? Because...
-We're looking forward to company and special meeting this weekend.
-We get to see more family soon!
-The kids get 2 weeks off school.
-Randy is taking a week off work(hopefully).
-Concerts, parties, and all manner of celebrations coming our way.
-A trip if the weather cooperates.
-Crafts, cooking, being cozy by the fire.
and last but not least...
-only 26 more days without Chocolate!
(My husband and kids think we should have a chocolate party on New Years Day. I think that might be overdoing it a little. I thought they were suggesting it in honor of my great and notable accomplishment of surviving the year without chocolate, but then I realized how much THEY have all missed having chocolate around the house this year. Maybe we WILL have to think about a party... :)
Happy December!
