merry christmas

i haven't posted for a couple of weeks...it's been pretty crazy...i was under a time table because my daughter in law, kelly and grand daughter were coming last week...my goal was to have everything done, so we could just play...well, that didn't happen...in fact, i've never felt so out of control...i stayed up sewing blankets for the grand babies...they turned out pretty cute i must say..but, now the day is over! whew! it was very fun...we've actually been partying since russ and kerry came home...with all of their friends around, it's always a party...then kelly k. came, then jeff and kelly came up...then willie arrived...we've had a great time...the moller's were in town for one day...so we got together with them...then the christmas activites...it's been a great time...unfortunately the grandbabies have all going home :( that isl be sad...it's been so fun to have kate here...she is growing up way too fast...she will sing so many songs...she knows everyones names and is always asking for them...it's really fun....then, when gavin and owen arrived! the fireworks start...they have had a few adventures while they were here....to name a few...i caught kate and gav in the refrigerator unloading everything they could reach, with kate standing in the vegetable bin....they escaped outside, running up to the trampoline...then jumping with the sprinklers on...getting soaked in the process...the most scary adventure was when kelly k left the room for a minute, came back and saw the front door open...the kids and dogs were halfway down and across the street...as you can see, they are having a great time together..so, this is what christmas to me is all about...alot of craziness on my part...and the funnest times with family and friends...it's all i can ask for and this year was great because i got it....
