Umm yes I am still alive…barely.

by Lori

I have eaten so much food, I am ready to hibernate like a bear. Christmas was awesome, normally we travel for Christmas, but this year we stayed home. It was just the five of us Christmas morning and I had a blast! Not that I want to be without extended family each year, but it made this year special. I had the misconception since we have older kids that we would get to sleep in a bit on Christmas morning…NO SIREE… we were up and going at 7 AM! The oldest son being the first one up, HA! But don’t they look like they had a blast!

Hubby updated my Photoshop Elements to #6, and now I am lost again..but it is fun figuring things out. I am enjoying time off from work, enjoying my kids while they are off, and just relaxing. And the boys…they are rocking out on their new Guitar Hero. Some serious concentration going on here..

Just wanted to pop in and say I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I am taking things slow for a bit. I have not been commenting much, but I am reading your posts. Be sure to check out the January Issue of Christian Women Online, I have an exciting interview with someone very special. I will give you a hint, it has something to do with one of the items we are giving away at Laced With Grace. If you have not had a chance to enter the give away….go there now.

See you in the NEW YEAR! Can you believe it is going to be 2008! I remember while growing up, trying to figure out how old I would be in the year 2000! And that seemed sooooo old, now we are entering 2008, and I am NOT old yet, hehehe =)

    These pictures are great!
  • What a great Christmas! Guitar Hero rocks at our house too (pun intended!). I too remember as a girl calculating my age in 2000 and being shocked at the figure! And now I find myself in 2008...the year of the big FOUR-O! How did this happen? I was sure I was still 27...
  • Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you!
  • So glad you are doing well! I hope you have a blessed new year my friend! Thank you for always being an encouragement!
  • Looks like lots of fun! Happy New Year to you, too!
  • THERE you are.....missed you, my friend.

    I love, love these photos of your boys. How wonderful you all had a true family Christmas with just the five of you. I've learned in recent years just how special that is. For years, Christmas meant going to my mother-in-law's house. Now that she's in heaven, we're all so glad we did that, but I tell you, there's something very special about staying in your own home and celebrating, at least Christmas Eve and Christmas morning, with your own little family.

    So welcome to the "gee...there's no time to read and comment" club. LOL We're all sailing in the same boat right now, but that will work itself out. Soon.

    Happy New Year, sweet friend.
  • Of course we're not old yet!!

    Have a Happy New Year!!
