December is such a busy month! For so many years I have tried to simplify and prioritize but this year...I gave up the fight. Christmas season is chaotic and busy and sometimes stressful and overwhelming with the amount of commitments and fun activities to pack into four short weeks. But without the distractions I suspect we would be much more aware of the long dark and cold days. There are worse things that having too many fun things to do that is for sure! We had lots of fun celebrating Grampas birthday with a parade (the kids of course think the town they live in throws a parade for Grampa every year in his honor...it may be the Christmas parade ...the verdict is pending on that one...). Elizabeth and Jacob enjoyed a little chef's class at our local grocery store where they made Christmas treats, we went to a Christmas light event with Grammie and Grandad and got to visit with Onnika and Greyson. We made cookies, had delicious Christmas dinners, ate too much and enjoyed some time off with Daddy. A few days before Christmas we put an offer on a house and were anxiously awaiting its acceptance. We found out shortly after Christmas that we go it! Christmas morning was busy and exciting and the kids were all spoiled! Everyone got just about everything they wished for and another Christmas is over! Whew!
