The day will be full of making pizza with the family and watching children play – divine!

Merry Christmas!!

My 3 year old grandson, Tristan is going to preschool this year and they had their Christmas program last night. He’s the one in red plaid in the middle.

I think he was a little surprised by all the focus being on them but he did really good!

They did the best at Jingle Bells! The little boy next to him had picked up his bell so it took a moment for him to figure out what to do.

Adrianna (who will turn 2 years old on Saturday) enjoyed dancing to the singing, lol.

This was the last show of the night and I just loved how he performed all the actions so wonderfully!

I LOVE when the mail lady rings my bell! It means she has brought me something special! I was so happy Jenn offered to do an ornament swap this year and Southern Sass sent me an AWESOME ornament!!!

Let’s check it out!

I love to just rip into the paper. I’m not a prissy-snip-the-tape wrapping saver, lol.

Oh my, I still can’t see what’s in there, can you?

It’s SO perfectly magnificent! Believe! Indeed I do! THANK YOU SO SO SO VERY MUCH KIM!!! Hey, I just realized I didn’t open the card yet – I better go back!

I love snowmen!  So is it any surprise that I bought a snowman ornament for my ornament swap partner?

He looks so very jolly!  I love how he has his arms stretched way above his head holding a candy cane!

Oops! The bag it was in got dropped, and even the bubble wrap around it did not protect it. Still he wears a smile, silly fellow!

Love the dancing feet!

Goodnight sweet Snowy. Needless to say I had to buy a different ornament for the swap.

Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. MM started on Sept 29, 2008 – Thanx to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

Here we have our Thanksgiving dessert table.  It’s really hard to gather up the kids once they too become adults, but it’s really nice that everyone gets rid of the distractions in order to spend time with each other. :0)  Oh and they put up with my decorate-your-own-sugar-cookie bar with only a little eye rolling, a reminder they are no longer children and a request for more icing colors, lol.

Yeah it’s a habit with us – this one was taken February 2009 at Mikal and Amy’s place. :0)

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I am very thankful for each one of you!

I have been having some internet connection problems, but think I may have narrowed the problem down to my wireless card – hoping my connection will be less sporadic very soon.

Today I am thankful for the turkey in the oven, pumpkin pie on my plate and all of the wonderful people in my life!
