But there are present to wrap,
cookies to make,
and boys to run around!

It's skating weather!


This morning we woke up to snow!


It's unusual to not get our first snow here in northern IL.
until December.


It has been in the 40's and 50's with rain!


It just didn't seem like Christmas time!
I'm  not a huge fan of winter weather,
but there is such beauty in the snow covering the trees!



So I am going to curl up in front of the fire and enjoy
the snow!

Disney

Disney adventures


We had a great time at Disney visiting my daughter!


It's not what I would have called a
relaxing vacation, but it was fun.


It was so good to have are family all together again.
My boys really miss their big sister.



We went non stop ,
We did four parks in four days.


My favorite is still
Magic Kingdom!



I have been home for a week and am now finally feeling like I am
catching up on some things. It's hard to leave in the middle of then
Christmas season.
We came home put up and decorated our tree,
 caught up on laundry and school work,.
But it was soo worth it!
