As you can see, I haven't really posted anything for weeks. I think partly it was because I wasn't really into posting something really jovial and happy after the post about Joe, my brother-in-law's passing. It is hard to post happy things when you are so sad.
But I also haven't posted because I have been really busy. I have been doing some part-time work, and finishing up the class I have been taking at La Salle, and I have been trying to get ready for Christmas...which is what this post is about.
We always try to get the tree up by the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. And, that is all we have done...get the tree up. Actually, Chris did put some lights on it, but that is all there is. No ornaments, no balls, no tinsel. It is really kind of a pretty tree, but there is nothing on it.
We always make decorating the tree a big family event. We all do it, and we play music, etc. But this year, I think we are going to try to fit it in real fast tonight, maybe even tomorrow--Jack just announced he wants to go to Nick's, and Anna isn't home from Crew yet... Not exactly very Christmas-y.
We were looking forward to going skiing over the holidays, but with 75 degrees scheduled for Christmas Eve around here, it doesn't look like we are going to get there over the holidays...we may have to put it off until later in February!
So, happy first full day of Winter! I hope your Christmas preparations are going better than ours!
