I hope everyone had a wonderful day yesterday! I spent the day with my family, my parents, my sister, and her family. Good times!

I played Scrabble for the first time in ages. Guess what? I SMOKED 'em! HA! OK, not nice to gloat! It's just not a typical thing for me and I was excited.

My mom always buys the grandkids a Hallmark ornament each year. Allie's is usually Barbie and all the boys get one that goes with their personality / activities from the past year. It's fun to open them up each year and talk about each one as we hang them on the tree. I always buy them one too, so they get two each year. They should have LOTS of memories to take with them when they move out and start their own holiday traditions and celebrations.

OK, back to cleaning for me. No, I didn't go out and get in the middle of all of the chaos and madness. I don't usually shop until the last week before Christmas. Andrew usually gets his bonus around then and we like to use it instead of charging things and paying on them for longer than we should. It's the only thing that makes me DREAD Christmas. Money, money, money, or the lack thereof!

Hugs to all,
R
