Merry Christmas to all my blogging gals! Yes, I am still alive, but we've been having marathon days getting ready for Christmas and shuttling kids back and forth to the doctor and drugstore. My kids are permanently sick this winter. After tomorrow, spring cannot come fast enough. On top of it all, Blogger decided to be testy, so I gave up for a few days and enjoyed the time away from the computer. Thought I'd check in today and wish you all a very Merry Christmas. I hope you all get fun treats, but more than that, I hope the time spent and memories formed with your families and loved ones will be your greatest gift this season.
