November and December have been a bit of a blur for me. Thanksgiving was wonderful, but it kind of took a lot out of me. We had lots of food, friends and pie. We had my birthday, Tim's birthday, Erik's
birthday and my Dad's. As soon as I had a tiny rest from all the cooking, it was time to decorate our house. I love to decorate, and have lots and lots of Christmas stuff. I also don't like change, and use the same things in the same places. This year I learned to embrace change.... lots of my favorite things in different places, and some of my favorites went missing.
Erik and Steve both had to work this Christmas, but we were still able to have our traditional Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas morning. My David came home, and I have him for one lovely month.
We've had snow, we've had really cold days. We've had burn bans. I miss my woodstove.
I have slowly been knitting on Ashleigh's baby blanket, I hope I get it done before her little baby comes. I have yarn for Kelly's, and still haven't chosen any for Miriah yet. I did get some books for Erik to read to his little jelly bean--- I remember reading them to all my boys and can't wait to read to my grand daughters.
Next week it will be 2011, and I hope to start getting rid of lots of stuff in my house. Anyone want a cat? Or two?
Later!
