MERRY CHRISTMAS !

Hope you are all relaxing and ready for Santa to visit your house tonite. I am watching Dr. Phil...( not exactly holiday TV...but what the heck.)..after baking multiple goodies this morning, doing laundry, packing to go to St. Louis, and actually risking my life and going to Wal-mart...I am READY! Everything is wrapped, hidden and ready to put under the tree as soon as all the kids and grandkids are out of the house this evening. I always get a little sentimental when I start putting the packages under the tree....it brings back such wonderful memories of helping out Santa deliver those gifts after the kids went off to bed. Problem was...they did not go to sleep for hours...so the alarm was set for some awful early morning hour to sneak downstairs and do the deed without too much noise. ( I don't know who we thought we were fooling...but we snuck around anyway.) Now the excitement has been rekindled with the grandkids....the shopping, the visits to Santa and those adorable pictures of their holiday antics. It brings a smile to my face just thinking about it.
I hope you all have a special memory that makes this holiday season a blessed one.
