It's the night before Christmas Eve...and all through the house, just kidding. I'm not going to write a corny poem, because my kids are waiting for me to tuck them in and it takes me at least a half an hour to write corny poems. It's JUST starting to feel like Christmas at our house and I'm not sure why it took so long. Johnny thinks it's because he didn't help put any ornaments up so he never got into the spirit. I said he should help me next year and he shrugged me off. I guess it wasn't that important. Andy has been playing xbox for like 72 hours straight, so Christmas snuck up on him while he was killing computer images in the basement. Jenna was buying presents before Thanksgiving so I don't think she's had any trouble with the Christmas spirit. I've done a better job of shopping early than ever, yet I still felt like it snuck up on me. I didn't really feel like it was Christmas until tonight when I was in the car with Johnny doing his shopping and we heard the famous Christmas song, "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer". Sorry mom, but we belted that one out as the snow was drifting from the sky like one of those Jimmy Stewart movies and for us, Christmas was here!Friday, December 24, 2010
