YIKES!
Last Friday I decided to take a half day off from work and spend the afternoon getting some necessary stuff done such as laundry, grocery shopping, and wrapping Christmas gifts. I really dislike using my pecious vacation for things like this but it certainly helped decrease my stress level as we had once again a busy weekend.
On Saturday Maya came with me to Joann Fabrics so we can make fun pretzels like these:
Which Makenna enjoyed eating :)
We also put up the tree - finally!
and thank goodness for shatter proof ornaments!
And on Sunday Maya participated in her first ever Christmas program at church. She did such a wonderful job and looked adorable as well. I was a proud mama! After the program we enjoyed some holiday cookies and visited with some friends of ours. Nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
Did I mention Christmas right away the corner? Did I also mention that means Dave is leaving very soon for Ethiopia? Yikes! I am still breathing and I am still hanging on. I am ready for this holiday as I love it. Who couldn't love Christmas and spending time with family?
