Crazy Month of December

Sorry for such a long post, but I missed the whole month.
I have to say I love holidays, but.....
why do we plan everything for the last month of the year? There are 11 other months. Parties, piano recitals and school concerts, church activities. I don't mean to sound ungrateful or anything, maybe I just have too many kids but I am so happy the break is here I can sit, relax and enjoy my family without running in and out the door yelling commands of where to go next.
Each of my kids did an awesome job in their concerts. Between Kyle, Morgan and Courtney and 3 different schools we had 5 school concerts.
I had a GNO and went to Tim and Willy Breakfast show, that was awesome.
Courtney had a soccer tournament, they took 1st, she played amazing.
Courtney was also invited to the Cheetah Girls concert, talk about a roomful of screaming girls. YIKES
Family Christmas party was great, thanks for hosting Lisa.
Eric took the boys and Courtney skiing.
Went on a awesome YW activity ending at our house.
I am so grateful for all that I have. I am very blessed with an amazing husband and kids.
With major layoffs at Eric's work, people losing their homes, and many close friends losing loved ones it does make me realize how very blessed I am at this holiday season.
I am so excited to spend the holidays with my family in Utah and build stronger relationships with them.
I want to wish all of my wonderful friends wherever you may be at this holiday season a safe and enjoyable Christmas.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
