My cards are mailed, FINALLY (the pictures got here yesterday), I sent a few packages, and overall, excited that our family gets to delay the holidays for an extra couple of days. Josh has to work the next four days... apparently terrorists don't celebrate Christmas, and so we will be saving our Christmas Celebration for his return. Instead, I'm thinking of taking the kiddos to a nearby retirement center, and entertain the guests with their craziness. We're also putting together care packages for some soldiers overseas, and Santa is forced to be delayed. I LOVE IT!! Other than Josh being gone, I love that Christmas day means, not a single gift unwrapped. Perfect.
Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!

Definitely take your kids to sing to the people in a home. My dad is in an old folks home and has been since he got out of the hospital (it's the only long term care facility for his physical therapy) Anyhoodle he said that a couple of church groups have come by to sing and talk to them and even though my dad has family he said it made him really happy to see people give up time to come and visit and try to cheer people up.
I remember going as a youth and thinking that it was the lamest thing ever, but now I see that it's really important and it can help people feel the spirit of the season.
Enjoy your Christmas!
We got your package. How did you know! Just what jobless people need, Boxed mac and cheese!
