Merry Christmas to you all... I'm heading out of town for some family time so wanted to just wish each of you a happy holiday before I'm "unplugged." Hope you are done with your preparations so you can just relax and enjoy the reason for the season...
Merry Christmas . Light, I'm sure you'll enjoy sharing your grandson's first Christmas. TJR, how wonderful to be spending Christmas in Paris-tres bien! Joyeux Noel!
I have the tree and all the decorations up, the cards went out a few days ago, and I just have a bit more of the binding to sew on the fourth and last quilt for the grandchildren. We decided it was too difficult for my husband to do two days in a row so we've opted out of going to my younger son's for Christmas Eve. He lives about 2 1/2 hours away and involves a long ferry ride so it's a major trip. His wife is Norwegian and they have a big family dinner and all the gifts on Christmas Eve,. and it's very loud and chaotic--just too much for him to handle.
We'll go to my other son's for Christmas dinner. All my children and the three granddaughters will be there and I'm hoping to get some good photos.
I'm off to finish the wrapping, and maybe get a batch of shortbread made. Baking has been non-existent so far but that can change quickly.
Joyeux Noel, Antoine! Light, enjoy Mark Isaac's first Christmas -- how exciting! Meggie, that Christmas Eve party sounds overwhelming to ME! Have a wonderful Christmas day with your family, especially your granddaughters.
We are having both Christmas Eve and Christmas day here. My parents of course will be joining us. David's girlfriend is with us until the 30th, so we have a full house once again. Funny how empty this place feels after Christmas! Kevin is finishing up his college applications. My Christmas present will be seeing the end of those!
Merry Christmas Everyone (sorry my fingers don't type french, LOL). All the chores are done, just have to make up my Christmas Goodie plates (11 of them this year) and deliver them. Going to my daughters house tonight for SOME of the presents, then Christmas Day is at ....
Here is the question of the Day - What relation is the Daughter-in -Law's Mother? Co-Grandma? Mother of the "in-law"? Anyway, Danny and Cilla are going to her Mom's house for Christmas Day, so we are following the grandbaby, and doing gifts and dinner at her house.
