Merry Christmas

The Christmas season was great this year. We were actually somewhat organized and had most of our shopping done by Thanksgiving. Then we planned weekly family activities (Clue week, cut down the tree, Christmas movies, etc.), had Siena over for a visit, enjoyed freezing weather and being hit by a bus, read Christmas scriptures for a couple weeks before the big day instead of just the night before, and settled in for two weeks of vacation. A great help was the countdown blocks we received from the Baileys. The kids only fought over changing them a little. Tree came down the day after Christmas and now it's time for a Happy New Year.
