Yeah!!! All in a Sundays family work. And this picture is from my D's first reconcilliation. His first real tie. Thank you Nanna!! He loves it. He is so handsome but I might be biased. He very much reminds me of his Dad. Oh I love my life.

What a handsome little man! He looks so grown up. :) It sounds like you are busy, busy. I am trying to finish my Christmas cards, finalize plans for Alex's birthday party, find time to finish Christmas shopping and fit in the usual housework, etc. Not enough hours in the day.

[ChrisDurnan]

I am there with ya' Kelly. Come thurs I will have a house full of people as my Dad will be here and then they will all go home on Monday. I am soooooo looking forward to it. D has been cleaning his room some. I have broken it down into quadrants and written with the dry eraser a game plane. He said OH like a strategic operation I can do that. So we haggled for 15 minutes per QUADRANT and 15 minutes play in between. my timer is getting a work out but the room is under way. :-) Dad is painting our screen porch frame. So things are moving. woohoo. and I just cleaned the kiddos bathroom tub with one of those magic eraser things. Okay yeah I loved it. I thought totally dumb when i opened it. But his tub is shining! mahvelous. onto the next room.

Hope you get it all done. I am looking forward to no school next week. woohoo! So I can get lots more done to. D is ready to help. :-)
Enjoy!

Sounds like a busy day Chris and you too Kelly! I just got home from a lengthy a.m. at church--the choir led the worship services, two services and I was in the audience for both. DD played the violin, DS was the sound engineer and DH sang in the choir and sang a solo--did an awesome job--they did Agnus Dei by Michael W. Smith--just gorgeous with full orchestra! I watched and listened sitting with future son in law--then out to lunch! Now staring at the 60 plus Christmas cards that need to be assembled, the Christmas letter that needs to be written, the 5 loads of laundry to be washed and thinking about the gifts that need to be purchased, the craft ornament project for the crafty girls day tomorrow--and trying to decide if I will bake 3 dozen GF cookies for the cookie swap on Wednesday--not sure about that yet. Just a wonderful time of the year! And Chris--your little man does look so grown up--look out, before you know it lil' man will be 6'4" and shaving!

Very grown up! but still and always moms little boy! ;)


We all have been busy, don't forget to take some time to just breathe. :D Gifts are all bought with the exception of a gift card. Making cut out cookies this afternoon. Still no tree! :(

[ChrisDurnan]

I was blessed to find a clearance purchase in our Christmas stuff I totally forgot about. I bought a twenty dollar pre-lit tree. i thought for sure my hubby would hate it. It is smaller then normal and my hubby loves the more lights the better. well this one is perfect. He set it up and I still have my living room. So our tree is up and waiting for ornaments for one my Dad gets here Thurs and everyone comes to decorate the tree that night. So excited. Miss my Dad tons.

Hope you are feelng better Ginger!!

Hugs
Chris

Thanks Chris! Dizzy today. Hubby says that is normal, lol, but he can tell something is wrong. ;) Dr can't see me till Friday but go to ER if needed. I sure hope not!

[ChrisDurnan]

Wow Ginger. take it easy on yourself. Need anything I can do from here let me know.

Hopefully it will just be something easily diagnosed.

hugs
Chris

Thanks! Seems better today. Hope it just stays that way. ;)

[ChrisDurnan]

Yeah D is still trying to get over his cough. that is all he has left but he cant control it and so they sent him home from school yesterday. today he was crying when I told him he had to stay home. But he seems slightly better so my fingers are crossed he is on the upward swing before Grandpa's visit.

I am so glad you are feeeling better!! keep it that way!
