Merry Christmas!

We hope everyone's Christmas was wonderful, relaxing and an enjoyable time to spend with family! Blake loved every minute of it and I'm afraid Emmalyn is certain that there will be a whole new round of presents under the tree tomorrow morning! Enjoy these moments because before you know it, we will be like my parents watching your grown children with their spouses and significant others open presents. Time flies... by the way for those who are interested Jessie and Travis got engaged on Christmas Eve! Now we have a wedding to plan for 2008! Congrats Jess!

Too much time has passed!

I always find it irritating to go to someone's blog who has not updated it in over a month or more (Sarah ;-), but here I am turning into one of those people. We have been so busy it has been crazy.

We finally got semi-settled into our house by the first weekend in December. However it has not been until just last night that I feel like we are finally getting somewhere. We unpacked the office and organized it (this means that I can scrapbook again), we got all our stuff out of boxes in our bathroom, therefore putting an end to endless searches for that certain lotion, and Todd finally agreed to slowly start hanging all our wall decor. Since we are hosting Christmas here, we have to keep moving ahead!

We then celebrated Todd's 31st birthday on the 12th. In the meantime we have continued all our activities; homeschool co-op, music classes, bible study, and mother's day out. Throw in some Christmas shopping and you have a fast paced schedule. As many of you mothers out there know, there is no such thing as a slow paced schedule when you have children!

We hope everyone is having a great holiday season!
