A Busy Weekend
I worked this weekend, but it was busy even still. Devon babysat both Friday and Saturday night and last evening we all went to the movies. Andy took Hannah to see Charlotte's Web and Devon and I went to see the Nativity Story which I thought was done very well. I really enjoyed it, Devon did too.
I can't believe it's a week til Christmas and we still have NO snow! I must say, as much as the snow and cold can get to you sometimes, it does seem very strange not to have any yet this time of year. We've had one cold snap and a few inches of snow, which is all gone now! All of it, not a trace except for up in the mountains. Very strange that is for sure.
I think I am mostly done my shopping, but there always seems to be something I need to get still. Since I am off today I need to get more wrapped while the kids aren't home.
It's a little chilly today, but not bad, about 40 degrees, for December! It just doesn't seem right!

The Ghosts of Christmas Past
Each has his past shut in him like the leaves of a book known to him by heart and his friends can only read the title.
~Virginia Woolf
I opened up my email the other day and what to my surprise, but an email from someone I knew over 20 years ago! A childhood sweetheart from my youthful days that found my website on the big World Wide Web. Who would have ever thought!
It totally surprised me, but it was so nice to talk to him again and catch up on our lives.
It actually flattered me that he remembered me after all these years. ;-)
A ghost from Christmas past indeed!

Christmas Time Once More
So, it's Christmas time once more and I'm glad we finally have a bit of snow, but I kinda wish we'd get like a foot or so! We have no snow and didn't get much last winter either. We certainly don't get winters like we use too!
Hannah did enjoy some fast sliding last night over at the neighbors house. They have quite a big steep hill and all the kids used their inflatable saucers and they went pretty fast down the hill! I wish I had gotten some pictures, but it was pretty dark out and we ended up going over unexpectedly.
We have the tree up and the outside lights, that keep blowing a fuse! Andy fixes them every other day!
Devon has her dance recital tonight, one this afternoon and then one tonight at 7pm. This weekend has been a busy one for her! Dance recitals and practice, church events and babysitting! She did manage to make honors at school this mid term though, just one class she could stand to bring her grade up in, History!
Merry Christmas time to all!
