OK, so it's been awhile...

What a great holiday we just had! My kids got a whole new bedroom! Two of their walls were painted a pale robin's egg blue. Julia got a new Disney princesses bed, complete with bedding and canopy. She also got a 6-bin princess toy cart and rocking chair, both match her bed. Nathaniel got the same set-up, including canopy, with a Pixar Cars theme. They got lots of toys and jammies that match. It is so cool! If i can find my stupid cord, I'll hook up my digital cam and post some pics.
I was spoiled this year. I got two awesome cook books, a set of Mario Batali measuring/prep cups, a new George Foreman 5-in-1 grill (the awesome new one), a chocolate fondue fountain (do we see a theme here??), and a FABULOUS new set of gardening tools from my dad. Also got a bunch of stuff from Bath and Body Works in my current favorite sent, which were in my stocking. Very nice.
I'm so excited, my sister Megan and her two girls are flying in tomorrow morning!! I haven't seen them since the moved 2 years ago, and I have missed them like crazy! SO happy. Dad paid to fly them here, he is being such a better dad these days.
All in all, a terrific Christmas. I am so grateful for my family. I am so glad that we all LIKE spending time with each other!
