Home and BRRRRR....its cold!

We got home from our "vacation" in the early hours on Wednesday morning...I spent much of Wednesday getting caught up on laundry, and cleaning house! How can 4 people have so much laundry is a common question going through my mind!Sometimes I think that vacations aren't all that great, it seems like you have more work when you get home!It had been the first time in over a year that we had seen my husbands family, so it was nice to get to see everyone. There was alot of "down time" and my husband and I are so used to being constantly busy, so we didn't know what to do with all of our free time!

Since we have been home its been COLD!!! And when I say cold I mean like wind chill of more than -10. I dont know the exact temperature from today, but I do know that it was windy ALL day and possibly even in the negative numbers ALL day. BRRRRRRR! we just got back from North Carolina where it was in the 40's!

Today Jonathan had his Christmas program at school!I was soo proud of him! He sang and recited his verse perfectly! I worried that he would get shy or not pay attention on the stage, but he did great! Its such a blessing to me to watch my kids grow! To think that 4 1/2 years ago this little boy was born, small, premature, and sick..and to see how God has worked in Jonathan's life in that time is just amazing to me!I am so blessed!And Zoe....well, she is something else! She is the most willful , headstrong child I have ever met! Yet she is the sweetest girl, and the most "mothering" little girl ever! She makes us laugh quite often! Actually both of our kids keep us laughing!

I cant believe that Christmas is next week! I dont know where the time has gone! I dont know if I feel ready for it, but I guess I will have to be!I hope everyone is haveing a wonderful holiday season!
