Wow, it's been awhile! I am so bad about updating this blog, but I will try and get better about it.
Christmas is upon us! Hard to believe. Seems like the older I get, the faster the years fly by. Ben will be 10 in a couple of weeks and that just blows my mind. He told me that he is "halfway to 20". I told him to slow down and relish these times, because being a kid at Christmas is the best thing ever.
We did our traditional visit with Santa this week. We heard that Bass Pro shops had a pretty neat setup and it's all free. That word really spoke to Michael. lol So we loaded up after school on Friday and went. It was pretty cool and the boys got their Christmas wishes straight to Santa's ear. I think the outlook is good that they will get what they asked for. Then last night, we all made a gingerbread house as a family. I have been wanting to do one of these every year but I just never get around to buying one in time. The kids did a great job!
Tonight we are taking the boys to see "A Christmas Carol" on stage by the Dallas Theater Center. Michael and I used to go every year, but this is the first time that we are taking the boys. They don't know...it's a surprise. It's Will's favorite Christmas story (he calls is Scrooge) so I think he will be extra excited.
Merry Christmas all!
