Happy December to you, too.
I am glad that we've got our list made and have set the budget so that everything will be CASH ONLY this year. That takes much of the stress off so maybe we can just enjoy it this time around.
Pumpkin cheesecake? And it was good? Really? Hmmm....
Peace & Love,

One of these days I think you should bring those little elves for a visit. Then your elves and my elves can all run around in the underwear! =) Miss you friend, and so thankful for your blog so that I can feel like I am there with you.
Yeah! I am so excited too! Happy happy...you got to see the babies. 2, I still can't believe it.
The boys loved the visit...next time we will make sure Q has leg armor before he goes into the green space. My boys can't wait to have cousin time again.
We are also all cash this year...it is a proud moment!
