Holiday Delights

Two of my fave things... my girls and making chocolates!

Amy and Ally took a short trip and took some photos... I took a few off  the computer for myself.


I've been baking and making up a storm the last week.  I made at least 30 boxes of chocolates and I still have a little more to go... I told Ally that I have a sickness in that I can't stop making food.  She said she has a sickness in that she can't stop eating food.  Ha!



Our Christmas shopping is pretty much done except for the stocking stuffers.  Ally is off school for two weeks, and I am off work for all of next week.  I am so looking forward to being off work, but not traveling.  My BFF is coming in to town for a two days and we already have plans for massages, a limo ride, and attending Lamb's Players.  Can't wait!

Merry iMas

We were horsing around while taking some photos for our annual Christmas letter...



Out of 30 photos, we came up with about 7 that we liked.




Our Christmas decorations are up and gift lists are being prepared.  I am really looking forward to having a week off with no plans.  Ally and I are in a skit on Christmas Eve at the church.  We are having a full blown Christmas Eve service and then a scaled back one on Christmas Day.  Since Christmas falls on a Sunday, I imagine many people have plans that don't include church.  Sad, since it is CHRIST'S BIRTHDAY!  Maybe the kids will actually get up to open presents before noon since they know we will have church.  HA!

It's been C-O-L-D -- well, cold for here anyway.  Chris got the frost off the car today and warmed it up for me today.  Hooray!  I can't complain since he's outside at the border all night, and he said it was 36 degrees the other night!  I would just sit in the truck all night with the heater on and yell threats out my window to people trying to sneak across the border.

We are going to Del Mar today to the movies at the luxury cinema where they have recliners for seats and call buttons for service.  Fun!
