Since I am not usually on the board on the weekend, and I have Monday off, so I am not sure I will be around then, I wanted to wish all of our members a Merry Merry Christmas!!! I hope that santa is good to you all!

Oh My Goodness. It's hard to believe it's so close you have to do it in case you aren't back on by then.
I had done all the wrapping but I have made more purchases since then so I have more to do. I see my son is also making a pile I might be asked to assist with so I better get on that today. Wow.
You have a Merry Christmas too. I bet the new house is beautiful. I hope your first Christmas in it is full of holiday spirit and joy.

surprising, I was hoping you were posting to tell me you were headed over to wrap for me!!! LOL I offer free cookies and hot chocolate, or a nice bottle of wine!!!!  Ahhhh the days when my brothers used to "ask" me to wrap their stuff too. My oldest brother has discovered BAGS.............great great inventions. The only trouble is that they are not as much fun to open AND they are hard to stack under the tree! The house does look nice. I have two trees up.............a four foot one on a table in the front window with all santa ornaments..........and it is beyond full (my favorite style), and the big real tree in the family room. I am not real happy with that one, the tree is really pretty, but it is hard to decorate. The limbs are pretty, but droop under any weight so that they hide the ornament you just hung. Of course many of Bob's santas are out................but really only about 30% at most............lost of other fun stuff too, including the animated stuff that the girls had a ball with last weekend. How are things going with the step daughter? Have a great holiday.............it is always fun with kids around! |

Oh man, if I could BNLater, I'd be on my way to your house right this second to help wrap! I love to wrap! Just ask tuzzi, I go up and wrap for her every year. I love it, love it, love it!
Anyhow, I've been so busy this past week myself. I probably won't make in on the board much, if at all, either over the next few days, so I too would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, a safe and fun holiday, and all the best in the new year! Can't wat to cruise with some of you fine folks again!
Happy holidays!

<<trying to decide which of us fine folks she doesn't want to cruise with? HMMMMMM Jessica I wish you lived closer. Our presents are mounds that need to be wrapped...UGH. But they always get done, so that is all the matters. Jessica you do a big Christmas Eve thing with the whole family? |

LOL! I should rephrase that to looking forward to all of the folks on this board who are able to cruise in January! Ha! Good catch BNLater  Yup, big ole family Christmas. I'll be sleeping over at my brother's place, we do a huge breakfast with both of my brother's families, my mom and me. Should be fun! Well, lunch hour is up, back to the grind! |

That sounds like lots of fun Jessica. We do a big shin dig at my sister in laws on Christmas Eve with all the kids. Christmas Day is usually very quiet with Bob and I and usually Eric. This year will have Eric's girlfriend for the morning (at least I hope so) and Robert (Bob's son). It is a real kick back day!

We are going over to Kent's sister's house for Christmas Eve. It is when we exchange presents and have a meal with his family. It is always fun because there are kids around. I love watching how excited they get. Kent's sister is making food and I don't have to bring anything because they "aren't doing anything fancy" but I have lots of treats to take over.
Kent's daughter was fine last night and will probably continue to be so. She is not coming over today due to a headache.
We had snow yesterday and they are saying it might snow for Christmas here. Keep your fingers crossed. I know it makes travel difficult but it is so beautiful.

surprising I am with you there! Nothing is quite the same to waking up Christmas morning to a beautiful while blanket of new snow! I hope you get that this year. I have a question surprising, have you ever done the reindeer bait in your yard with your granddaughter?

I'm just excited to get out of school for a week... Haven't had a break in awhile! Too bad it's going to be almost 50 degrees here, don't you just love that Ohio weather?!
Hope everyone is doing well and has a very merry Christmas!
