Happy, Happy, Happy!!!

My house is back to normal!!! All of my inside Christmas is put away until next year! Woot!!! It isn't that it wasn't a wonderful Holiday time, it is just so messy to me! I like order, and with all of the Christmas fru-fru, there is no order! Now, I can relax and look forward to the New Year. I am having the whole family over again on Sunday, so I have one more big dinner and then it is clear sailing!

Christmas was a very fun day. My kids actually got here before 8:00AM. It made me happy because it showed that even at almost 25, they are still like little kids, ready to see what Santa brought. We had a huge breakfast and then just hung out all day. We played several games of Apples to Apples. Have any of you played that game? It is really fun, especially with all ages, and all personalities. I love that my 13 year old granddaughter loves to engage in games and doesn't go off and sit by herself somewhere. I got my grandson a "Stuffie". I don't know if you have seen the commercials for them, but there are several compartments in a large stuffed Dog to hide all of his treasures. He was so excited. I love having little ones around! We skyped with my Georgia daughter so we all got to visit.

Matthew with his new Kindle Fire=Happy!
I ate 4 Mexican wedding cake cookies late Christmas night. The neighbors brought some wonderful treats by and I had made some, but they turned out awful. I just had to eat them all at once! I paid big time with an upset tummy. My weight isn't up yet, but my tummy circumference is:(

The definition of insanity:(
I hope everyone is doing well!
Blessings

    I understand the wanting order thing. I am like that to. Hubby says I have OCD.
    Sounds like you had a great day. :-)

    I definitely have OCD. January 1st I purge it all - I even pitch out perfectly good poinsettias in an effort to regain normalcy. Glad you had a great day :)

    Wow, I thought I posted! I am glad your kids still come over early on Christmas - that's neat. We love Apples to Apples! Since my kids are still so young we have the junior version, and not everyone reads yet so it's a little more difficult, but it's still fun.

    I *think* that once you post on my new blog then there is an auto-fill feature, so as long as you don't need to change anything you shouldn't have to re-write anything. Hope that's the case. :)

    Kay, I have loved reading your blog! I was on BFC two years ago and lost 50 pounds, got pregnant with our 2nd daughter, and am trying to get back on track! Your blog was just what I needed to read. Thanks for being REAL! I was wondering if you could let me know the recipe for your no bakes and pretzel treat? Thanks! :) Lana
