Merry and Bright

Our weekend, so far, has consisted of lounging around. 

Of watching Christmas movies.

Of baking cookies. 

Of eating take out.  Or our Christmas cookies.

We've even sewed a stocking, from an old shirt, for our pup Penny.  My oldest did this, on his own, because he now knows how to sew thanks to "Family Science."

Such a fancy word for Home Economics.

Excitement is in the air.  This time of year is all about giving, about loving and about family.  In our house it's also about good behavior, because my munchkins can see the finish line.  It's in sight, and they up the amount of sharing and helping and loving by at least 50%.

It never fails.

Happy almost Christmas.  Make these days merry and bright, because Santa's packing his sleigh tonight!
