We're All Better Now!

Well, I had high aspirations for Thanksgiving Break, but then Caedyn got sick, Eli got sick, and I got sick! Even with the kids sick I tried to remain positive and focused on the task at hand. Get the Christmas tree up and decorate the house - some. Well, the tree is up, lights are on it, and Caedyn has put up about 20 ornaments. That's all. (I was sick!) When four people stay locked up in a small house for five days together, it's not good. The house became quite a mess, and did I mention that I didn't get the tree up? Bummed doesn't quite describe it. I am really jealous of all of you who found the time to get your decorations up.

So we are all well today and will hopefully remain well because we have Caedyn's Big Big Bus Birthday Party Saturday. I have no idea if any kids are joining her on the Tumblebus yet, but she is excited about her birthday! She said tonight, "My burday comin' up!" Such a smart girl!

I guess we will get the ornaments on the tree sometime this week. (We have A LOT!) We don't really have too much decorating to do at this house because we have less surfaces to set things on. Now that the tv is on the wall we don't have an entertainment center so we aren't putting the village up at all. I will put the nativity and some snowmen things out, but it won't be like it was at our old house before we had kids!! I am hoping to get the tree up and take pictures of the kids this week to do our Christmas cards. If you don't get a photo card this year you know that didn't work out!
