In Winter its a Marshmallow World


Woke up to Tim "the weather man" Cottle informing me that school had been canceled. Ok whatever, its December in Maine, it happens...I look outside...nothing. Not a damn flake, no wind, no nothing. I am thinking back on my school days where we went to school in HORRID conditions and no one blinked an eye. Man kids these days are spoiled!

Since I have a hunch that - based on TWC - there will be no school tomorrow either I am trying to plan ahead and have some craty thing that we can all do. Today was a whole lot of fighting and crabbiness. The kids did go outside for a little while but I am ready for Daddy to get home!!!

I think we are going to put up the tree tonight, assuming that my children susvive until after supper. I have been working like mad making our ornaments for the 'Nightmare Before Christmas Tree'! I think they look good. I even commisioned Jake to make a few with me this afternoon while Bella was(nt) sleeping. I am really not feeling like its Christmas and its kind of sucking a little. I usually try to hype myself up for the kids and make it a jolly holly holiday but man something is stuck between the gears this year! I thought all of this snow might help make me more in the mood and that first storm really did but now I am just whatever about the whole thing again. This weekend is Tim's company's kids Christmas Party at the Childrens museum so maybe that will be the thing to push me over the holiday spirit edge. I did end up getting our Christmas Cards done and I really, really am happy with the way they turned out! I have mailed out the first batch the 2nd should be mailed out at the beginning of next week but I am excited for you all to see them! The kids cooperated really well this year and the photo is wicked cute!

Hope all of you readers are feeling holiday-ee and enjoying this time of year with all of your family!
