I'm just sitting down to eat breakfast now because I've been working on our Christmas cards since Mac got on the bus earlier this morning. They're over halfway done and I can probably, with help from Sean who has already helped a lot, get them sent out on Monday...and that will be my last major to-do. Pretty much all the other Christmas gift buying, wrapping and gift tag making is done...it feels so good to see the huge pile under the tree ready to go.
As of last night I got all of my work for English class done and printed out to hand in on Monday. On Wednesday I have one last in-class writing and then I am all done! I thought for sure this weekend would be miserable since I'd inevitably procrastinate up until the last minute on my research paper and other assignments but somehow, someway I found it within myself to get it done ahead of time...what a great feeling that is...there certainly is a first time for everything.
Now, I want to scrapbook. I haven't gotten a chance to really sit down and just play since this summer and I'm dying to...especially since I saw the 2Peas Garden yesterday...so hopefully now that I am school work and Christmas to-do list free I can have some fun...
Oh and I wanted to share a special holiday moment too...
Sean and I have a tradition to write funny little notes or hints on gift tags for each other...and sometimes I can't resist making them slightly inappropriate if the idea hits me. This year there is one gift in particular (that I can't mention since Sean reads this from time to time) that was just begging for an X-rated pun...sooooo earlier this week Bryce came by to pick up Mac and comments on all the gifts under the tree. Mac excitedly tells his Dad that a bunch are for him and he starts pointing them out. Bryce asks if a certain big one was for Mac so my dear child wanders over to check it out...then he starts to read it to Bryce...I frantically interrupted "Okay! Well it's time to go...come on Mac" to cut him off before he'd be asking us, "What's that mean?"...I am still not used to the fact that Mac is really starting to be able to read now...yikes. :)
