K Guys, It's Really Here

***

It's not just me anymore,

Christmas really is here!

With only 3 more sleeps left

(I agree Lisa, Christmas will always be counted in "sleeps")

The halls are decked and all is merry and bright.

This past weekend was B-U-S-Y!

Christmas parties galore and 

spreading tidings of comfort and joy

to our family and friends 

made the season extra special.

Even though each waking minute was

spent packing our family and friends

into our weekend,

it was so worth it.

We don't get to see everyone as much as we'd like

You know, with living far away and all.

I always look forward to the time of year

that we can all catch up,

exchange cards, hugs and steal each others gifts!

We are now up at the mountain

where we will remain until Boxing Day.

We are 100% in holiday mode.

It is after noon and I am still in my pajamas! 

Here are a few photos to highlight the past few days.

(Silly me, I had my camera at all the events,

but only took it out of its case for one!

Please visit Diane's blog for

the photos from the Smid gathering. )

Nice and cozy at the cabin...

We all had a good laugh last night when Tyler opened his tin 

of goodies to discover that several of his 'Love Squares' were missing.
