Preparing For CHRISTMAS

Well, didn't get to work anymore this week. However, gave me some extra time to prepare for the holidays!!!! I had a checklist and I was almost through by Saturday. As I awoke Saturday morning I ran Garrett to the school and started my day. I began to clean my house, it is always so nice to come home to a "mostly" clean house. Garrett's parents stopped by they were in town to see the Opryland Shows. This allowed them to be able to see our tree, new couch and other decorations. It meant alot that they came a little out of their way just to swing by and take a look!! Then I finished up my wrapping and started getting ready for a wedding that afternoon. I had snapped a few shots of our house at Christmas, thought I would share.
Our little tree, hoping to catch a sale after Christmas for a bigger one

All my wrapping

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO US!!!! Thanks to ZGallerie!

We decided to go in and get us something for house instead of individual gifts!

This is at Garrett's Big Brother in Fraternity's wedding on Saturday. I was taking pics of the bride and groom when our digital camera we have had since 2003 decided to break. Oh well, I made a trip to Best Buy quickly, I can't have a blog and go through the holidays without a camera!!!

Well as I am typing this we are in Medina,TN at my parent's house. We will have Christmas here with both sides of my parent's families and then will travel to Birmingham to Garrett's parent's families. Then we will come back to my side to do one more thing before we head home this next weekend. WHEW!! Lots of road time.

Hopefully I will choose to spend my time wisely. In January I am starting Kay Arthur's precept on Matthew bible study with some friends in neighborhood at a local church. Kinda nervous, Kay can get pretty deep, but I know God will choose to reveal the things he sees necessary. Well I will post pics later of where I grew up and our families here!! Hope you and yours are enjoying this holiday season!!!! Will be praying for good health and safe travels!!!
