1. I didn't think I was going to be able to post this today. So many things to do. But I'm actually ready to go and have a half hour to spare before I need to leave. So I thought I'd sit and write something up real quick. There isn't too much going on right now business wise, so you are going to get a lot of personal stuff today. Hope you don't mind.
2. I spent this morning cooking and baking. If you know me well, you know that is not something that I do on a regular basis. I don't really enjoy cooking much. But we are having a family Christmas party this weekend so I made some treats for that. I baked I don't even know how many dozen cookies, two apples pies, made a couple different kinds of salad, and two big pots of Johnny Marzetti. Cannot wait to dig into those apple pies!
3. So we have all of our Christmas shopping done and most of it wrapped. Still waiting on a couple of more things to arrive from the UPS man. I will spend Monday wrapping the rest of the gifts and cleaning the house to get ready for the big day next weekend.
4. We sure had a busy week this week. Snow days, basketball games and practices, two Christmas concerts. Both of which were awesome! Cooper had his preschool one. So so sweet listening to all of those little preschoolers singing about baby Jesus. And Brodey had his 5th grade Christmas program. He put on quite a show. He volunteered himself to dance during one of the songs. He was doing John Travolta moves from Stayin Alive and Pulp Fiction. And Albert moves from the movie Hitch. It was quite entertaining! His Daddy would have been so proud. He is always doing those dorky dance moves around here! Took lots of pictures, but regretted both nights not having my video camera.
5. My daughter Peyton absolutely adores books. So when I pulled out a new Christmas book this week with a big star that lights up, she was beyond excited. She sat and looked through it over and over. I sure hope she continues to love books throughout her life. The older boys don't really read for entertainment. They only read when it's forced on them by teachers. Other then the sports page anyway! Both of the little ones love books and will bring them to me daily for reading time.

Don't you just love a snugly little toddler in footed jammies?
I sure do!
Have a great weekend.
