They wanted it to begin to feel like Christmas. So, I accommodated. Even did the plates of cookies and fudge for the neighbors this weekend. Yeah, I'm a little neurotic that way! : ) Now I'm contemplating sending Christmas cards out... all 150+... yikes! Might pass on that!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06451012160548863039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800483204030938211.post-61174680247359554752012-12-08T10:14:41.938-07:002012-12-08T10:14:41.938-07:00I felt the same way when I came home!

Turn up the tunes and let the cleaning begin!Staciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18162018158248579275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800483204030938211.post-34870898615023021742012-12-06T20:44:10.117-07:002012-12-06T20:44:10.117-07:00Okay, Yvette, I am now adopting this verse as mine...Okay, Yvette, I am now adopting this verse as mine for the next 18 years...I think that I am going at the pace of the flocks and herds (which really describes my family, by the way...). I am LOVING seeing all the photos of you guys at home! Everyone looks fantastic, and while I am sure that everything isn't "perfect' (when is it EVER?), your family is precious, and what a blessing to see all those faces together after your "leap of faith" to bring home #6. Blessings to all you guys!Symasek Family Circushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03746617570915645603noreply@blogger.com
