Did Christmas fly by or what?

I am having a hard time with the Christmas. I don't feel like Santa has been here. I don't know if it was because I have been so busy (getting ready, like shopping, or was it having 3 dinner parties since Dec. 16th) or was it because the weather has been so unseasonable warm and no snow. I just can't believe it is almost 2007. Is there anyway that I can push a rewind button, get a little snow and start all over again. Wait I take that back. Rewind to the beginning of Dec. and get all of my parties catered, except Christmas Eve (because that one was easy and the food was FABULOUS), get a maid and someone to decorate my house for the fastive occasions. I have been going and going and going that I feel it flew by and I missed it. The decorations are coming down today and I guess that is why all of a sudden it hit me. It is over and I don't remember it. I guess I am going to do things differently next year, like not have so many big parties and shop early. Thanks for letting me vent, that exactly what I needed. Now off to get the decorations down so that maybe I can find time to scrap before I have to start back to work in a few days.

GUILTY as Charged

Oops, Sorry about the sideways photos. I will try and repost later with them the correct way. How stupid of me.

I have been so bad about updated my blog. So I am going to give a condensed version of my life since Oct. I have been so busy that I really don't remember. How is that for condensed? HAHA!!! Well Scott had a trip to Germany and he was gone for 2 1/2 weeks. I have a new understanding of being a single parent and more sympathy for them. I thought I was going to go crazy. He travels quit often but normally for 3-4 days at a time and the girls and I kind of like it. We just do our own thing, like eat out, go shopping and watch girly movies. But he was gone too long and it was a very hectic time of year. Trying to get ready for Christmas and the big party that we had at our house. He came home the day before the party and didn't understand why I was feeling a little overwelmed. We were having about 50 people, so I had to clean the house put up the decorations and cook and fix food for all of them. Then try and do my Christmas shopping. But that is over and now it is time to get ready for another that we are hosting for Christmas Eve. I am really looking forward to that one and since the house is still pretty clean from the last one I just need to pick up and get the food out, and everyone is helping with that.

I have had 3 sinus infections since the end of October. Well that is what the Dr. said. I think it was the same infection and it just wouldn't go away. Knock on wood I have been off the antibiotic for 2 weeks and thing and still going good. Tis the season to be Jolly FaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLa.

Here are some photos of our tree and the girls making there Gingerbread house.

I wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
