December 21st

I know, I know...I am about a week behind, life gets hectic! ;-)

In the meantime, we had a great Christmas book club on the 18th at Amy's house. I got a baby free night out with the girls and it was fun! Ginny gave us a surprise visit too which was great! We just had such a fun evening and I am so thankful as always for my wonderful girlfriends and for my hubby who was willing to watch both boys.

On Sunday, I was very proud of myself for making it to church by myself with both boys. Matt wasn't feeling good but I still I wanted to attend the Advent services and I also had my Angel Tree gifts to turn in. It was a little hectic getting us all ready and then the actually transporting to and from church, but all and all, it wasn't to bad. Go me! :)

And today, the 21st....finished Christmas shopping. I only had a couple things left to get thankfully because the traffic was horrid as well as some of the lines. But I finished, woohoo! The line to see Santa was INSANE. Seriously, it was at LEAST 100 people long and people continued to get in line still!! Very glad we did that a couple weeks ago!

And then tonight, grandma and grandpa came over and we all headed over to Prestonwood to see the lights. There were some houses that were very cool but I think my memories were of much grander displays. It did remind me of high school though as there were lots of kiddos piled up in trucks, cars, etc crusin the neighborhood!! Z enjoyed it though and that's the important part!

All my shopping is finished and wrapping too. I volunteered to do my mom's too since she has to work all week. Tomorrow will be grocery day and Wednesday will be cleaning. I cannot believe it's almost Christmas!!
