Hey all. I'm still fighting off this cold, but I'm getting better. I'm super excited today because Timmy, our oldest, is flying in to stay for a couple weeks! He was recently laid off from his job, and since Eddie (our cousin that was down here helping Tim work) has recently returned home to be back with his family, Timmy is coming to help his dad out. YAY! David is super excited to be with his big brother. It will be nice having him in the house again. I know that kiddo's grow up and move out, but sometimes...JUST SOMETIMES...it's nice to have them back for a minute. Lots of Love! Gotta go clean and prepare! YAY!
I love Christmas time! It'll be even that much better with more family around. This is my tree. I couldn't fit my pretty angel topper in the pic, but you can kinda see my carousel under the tree. And I love the fireplace with the stockings. When I was young, my mom always put the best presents in my stocking. It was the best to me anyway. She would hide a small gift in a bunch of candy that would be sentimental just between her and me. Sometimes it would be a ring from her jewelry box that I admired, or a bottle of perfume that I loved or my diamond necklace that broke and I lost :( The stocking was my favorite part of the holiday. I try to do the same for my kids with stockings. A little something extra...just from mom.
