MERRY CHRISTMAS

it seems like forever since i last posted...so much has been going on with organising things for our first christmas away in 15 years; writing in cards; checking addresses; buying gifts; making gifts; wrapping gifts; making gift cards; trying to organise the house; going to school presentation days/nights; work parties; get togethers with friends that go on WAY too late for this old girl
geez....i am tired just writing it all down.
i have lists upon list of what needs to be done/bought/taken/left, etc, etc
i have lists to tell me what is on what list even.

but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
just hope it's not an oncoming train barrelling down on me....LOL

i do hope that each and every one of you has an amazing christmas, filled with fun and laughter and the love of your family and friends.
i hope that you are blessd with as much happiness as i have felt each and every time i have read a comment you have posted in response to something i have written; or emailed me; or sometimes i have been blessed to have picked up my phone and heard some of your voices on the other end of the line.

thank you to all of you who have maintained your blogs, filling them with the comings and goings of your lives and the lives of your families.
i have laughed and cried, cheered and booed with you all through your blogs and always felt so blessed and thankful for the wonderful online community of friends that i have.
thank you everyone....from the bottom of my heart.

i will leave you with some photos of my beautiful children and a thought...
"the perfect family portrait is just one weird face away"






MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL...
AND TO ALL...
A GOOD NIGHT.


look for the things that make you smile
~~ and remember, let those you love, know that you do ~~

Hope your Christmas and New Year were both good ones Shazz and that you are enjoying your holiday away! I love the portraits, especially the one with Kait reaching up with both arms to hug her brothers. Too sweet!

Love and blessings!
