Jingle Bells...
I'm still Christmas shopping here. I can't believe I'm still doing last minute things. Well I can, because I am always working. Usually, I'm done by now, it's weird to still be needing things on my list. Oh well! Maybe I'll catch a last minute sale or I'll probably end up paying more for procrastinating.
We had a decorating contest at work. Our team came in second and they had a million and one cookies there for us. Yummy! Work is okay...Same ole! The kids however are as crazy as ever. Aiyana is going to be sleeping over tonight and tomorrow is my day off. We're going to take them to the mall to see Santa. This way they can have their lists ready with what they want. This Christmas we're sticking with our usual traditions. That's what traditions are for! Charles and I, started up our own years ago. On Christmas Eve we're going to eat at our favorite restaurant. Then, it's off to church. Last year we did the midnight mass, because Aiyana was in a play. This year we'll be going a little earlier (this way the day care is still open!) LOL! No, just kidding! On Christmas Day after the kids wake up and open everything, we're going to Jemez to visit the family. We're going to pick Aiyana up and we'll open gifts with her altogether. A day with family is how it should be. I won't get to be with my Mom and Dad. Maybe when the kids get older and can with stand New York's wonderful and beautiful winter then we will visit them. Baby told me that on Christmas Day it will be almost 60 degrees here. 60 degrees!!! I can't get over that. Every Christmas I've ever known was a winter wonderland. What's up with the 60 degree weather? Yikes! I was hoping to cozy up with some homemade cookies with cocoa to watch the snowflakes fall. Oh well, wishful thinking- I guess. It will still be a beautiful day. It's the day our Savior was born. :-)
