I guess Christmas has come and gone! We spent the 26th celebrating with hubby's family. My nieces and nephew got a Wii, so the kids (and adults) had lots of fun playing with it. Unfortunately, my bag fell off the kitchen counter, and my camera broke. I have no pictures! Thankfully, my SIL plans to share hers via Snapfish. It would bug me forever to have no pics from Christmas 2007 with Grandma and Papa Don! Also, thanks to Grandma and Papa Don for giving me a nice envelope with money inside for Christmas. I will now be using it to buy a new camera. :) In the meantime, I am thankful I still have my old camera to use.

Grammy and Papa (my parents) left Saturday morning to return to California. We spent the day being lazy around here. We did, however, try out my new present.


Although I made a HUGE mess, we enjoyed the waffles. The kids had fun eating them, and we hope to make Mickey a regular weekend feature. Next time, however, I will be using a mix rather than starting from scratch (I tried to be Martha, but next time I will take the easy route). Thanks to Grammy and Papa for the waffle maker!

One more thing...I just have to show this. I thought this was so cute that I bought it to set by our front door. I don't know why, but it makes me happy. My hubby thinks I am crazy. :)


I rarely buy things simply because I like them, so this was a Christmas gift to myself!

Our Christmas 2007 was wonderful! We enjoyed spending time with our family; the kids had a ball playing with their grandparents and cousins. Now it's time to get ready for 2008. I can't believe how fast time flies!
