R U Ready for Christmas??


Well -- The Countdown is on.....T-Minus 5 days until Christmas. Everyone is still in full preparation mode here at the house -- as you can see by the pictures attached. Pongo and Cheryl are enjoying the Holiday spirit while Cheryl puts together a Christmas gift for Alexxis and her BFF....(ok, for your textually challenged folks thats TXT for Best Friends Forever). While Cheryl works, and works, and works, the kids lounge, and lounge, and lounge watching the Christmas shoes made for tv movie....





















Yesterday, Payton's classroom @ school was visited by the man himself -- Yes Mr. Clause....The kids all loved it while they drank hot cocoa, made crafts, received bells from Santa, and took pictures with him as well. It was a great time and hopefully something they will always remember.



We neglected to take our camera today, but we took the girls and Preston for a horse drawn carriage ride next to a local movie theater at about noon, and since then were outside selling Cool-Aid at a driveway stand next to the street...they got about 4-5 takers (1 being me while I did some much needed gun cleaning). Cheryl is currently preparing our dinner tonight (a fun dinner).....Homemade Soft and buttery Pretzels.....YUM -- can't wait to dig in.

The Tree is up, the lights are on and we are set....heading to Lake Havasu this year and spending Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with Cheryl's sisters (Julie & DeeDee & of course Ashley as well)....should be a rip rousing time.




Wishing you and yours the Merriest Christmas & Happiest New Year...
