I’m sorry I haven’t been around much these past couple of weeks. There is a lot going on around here, which I am sure is common for everyone right now.
I have some Photos to share that can prove it… incase you think housewives don’t have any good excuses to be busy. We just sit at home in front of the TV all day right?!

Decorating the Christmas Tree. Do you find it a little weird that they are making the same face?
Our lovely little tree. And yes, it is still living. Yahoo!
We visited the Train Garden at Kenilworth Mall. They loved it!
Getting ready to deliver our cookies to the neighbors. My big helper!
The cookies. Sugar (in Raven’s colors), peanut butter and chocolate chip.
Workin’ on the Gingerbread House with Daddy.
Ryan made this with Lucy. I am soooo impressed with his artwork! He has been holding out.
Something got into our Nativity People over night. It must have been the Eggnog!
34th Street Lights! Notice how I always get to take the pictures…
And lastly, someone moved into her “Big Girl” bed. She couldn’t be more proud.
This is at 10am. She played in it all morning.
Merry Christmas!
This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yetdid not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.
But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus,because he will save his people from their sins.”
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”(which means “God with us”).
When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.
Matthew 1:18-25
