Okay, so I fell off the planet for about a month. We really are fine but things got a little out of control for a couple of weeks. We had a fabulous time on our vacation and really didn't want to come home. I will tell more when I am at my home computer and can post pictures to go along with it. We thank Chris and Alicia for putting up with us and a sick Damon for one night. Sorry that we shared the lovely cold that is going around and won't go away. We returned home a couple of days before Thanksgiving and hit the floor running. Mike and I both had to work the day after we returned and worked through the holiday. Then it was back to school, more work, and the start of the Christmas season. We have also had dance programs, school activities, and everything else. I promise to post pictures of everything. Unfortunately that may be a little while. We had to buy some disposable cameras while we were gone because the camera had a little accident. No worries, I just have to figure out where I put the cameras and then get them developed.
We did have Thanksgiving dinner with Chris and Alicia. This involved going out for pizza and pasta at Pat and Oscar's. It was quite yummy. Then we had a real Thanksgiving dinner, on Thanksgiving, at my parents house. We worked it in between sleep and going back to work. (Actually just Mike had to work that night, I worked the night before. hee hee)
The kids are gearing up for Christmas. They have lists a mile long and think that they are going to get everything. Damon wants anything that is electronic and Madison wants everything that is cute, fuzzy, pink, or can have it's clothes changed. (Pretty much everything) The good news is that Mike is off for Christmas this year and I only have to work four hours on Christmas Eve. Then, to top it off, we get the New Year's holiday off too. Our children won't know what to do with themselves. They will actually have everyone together at the same time and no one will be sleep deprived while celebrating.
All joking aside, we really are blessed to have the jobs that we do. We are so happy to be able to visit our family members that are scattered around the country. We are also thankful for our family and friends that actually put up with us, especially Mike and the kids (they can get a little out of hand).
I do promise to post pictures of what I have and fill you in on the details.
Later,
Michelle
