Merry Christmas Everyone!

All I could think about this morning as the boys were ravaging through their presents from Santa was how long it took me to wrap all of them and how fast it took them to unwrap them! Absolutely blew my mind.

6 months of shopping, 242 ties to unwrap from the packaging, 28 presents to wrap, 16 bows, 8 different kinds of wrapping paper, 4 bags of trash, 2 rolls of tape, and an endless amount of memories watching them undo all of my hard work!

So I havent blogged in a bit but you'll have to excuse me from the break because I was on jury duty for two weeks and ended up being selected to be on a murder trial. It was an interesting experience to watch how the court process goes and actually be behind the scenes and watch jury duty deliberations, I should say be a part of it. I honestly do not think I would want to do it again (like I have much choice) becuase I think an experience like that should be a once in a lifetime opportunity. It can take hold of your emotions and traumatize your thoughts for a few days I will not lie about it.

School starts again in a few weeks. I sucessfully completed last semester with three A's I am VERY proud of myself becuase it took a lot of time balancing and organization. I am very eager to get back into the swing of things after being out of work for so long. Joel is still doing well and has a doctors appointment about his leg in January. Noah has an eye doctors appointment coming up as well so we will see how his vision is progressing, hopefully changes are being made.

We are getting ready to go to the movies this afternoon. Grandma and Grandpa White are taking the boys to see Desperaux while Joel and I go next door and see Valkeryie. Then dinner is at Steak and Shake. I am just not in the mood to cook the traditional dinner today. There is alot of family coming and going today so we just made snacks and are settling on our Christmas dinner Saturday.

I hope everyone is enjoying their Christmas Day remember that Jesus is the reason for the season!! Be sure to sing Happy Birthday to him!! and thank God for all of your blessings.

Merry Christmas Everyone!! Love you all!
