We had a busy weekend, but snuck a lot of fun into the mix. On Friday, I waited for the black friday frenzy to calm down before heading out to snag a few deals myself. Then I came home and lit my new cinnamon frosting candle and started dragging in the Christmas decorations. We cranked up holiday music and the kids had fun decorating. I did my best to convince Carson to let me finally retire our old tree and upgrade, but he wasn't having it. The kids love our little ol' tree with one missing leg and a glitch in the lights. It has a lot of memories, so we let the kids do their decorating.
Owen likes to rearrange the ornaments a million times a day and it's not uncommon to find little superhero toys mixed in the branches. I'm just soaking it all in!
On Saturday, we had a family party at the park and it was not my best day ever. It was just a moody day for me and I was glad to go to sleep and call it done. Sunday made up for it when I started off my morning at the salon getting my hair done. Then after a nice lunch with the family, we took the kids to see 'Rise of the Guardians'.. great movie!!
Now we are already to Tuesday.. how does that happen? It's like we blink and it's already the end of the year. Kam is wrapping up her first semester of Jr High and will be bogged down with finals, the light parade and Holiday orchestra performance. We have a bunch of holiday parties planned and our weekend trip to Stanford planned for Owen's cath. December will not be a relaxing month, but will certainly bring lots of fun and memories as it's my favorite time of year!!
