It's Beginning to look a lot like Christmas............

We got the tree up yesterday. Working

on Christmas cards but not getting very

far.

It has been so cold here this weekend

and I' am not getting as much done as

I would have liked.

DECEMBER ALREADY......................

I can't believe it's December already. Katie and I did our share of helping the
economy on Black Friday. We shopped for about 6 hours and only made a dent
in the Christmas shopping. I did do some shopping online and I do believe that
next year I will be doing alot of that.

We are going to get the tree up this weekend and start decorating the house.
I have decided not to put out too much this year.

We spent a quite Thanksgiving at home this year. Just the 4 of us and John's
Mom.
Working on a Christmas project - will share later with pictures - If it turns out
like I hope it does.
