Merry Christmas!



I'm posting my card on a tree Christmas picture a little later than I wanted to, but sometimes life gets crazy and my blogging timeline has to take a back seat to living life.  I figured you would all understand where my children might not understand why the presents weren't put out for Christmas morning because Mommy had to blog.

Life has been rather busy since Thursday night which has left me with precious little time to blog.  I do however have some blog posts that I'm anxious to write.

I want to blog about the circus Christmas Eve Mass we went to in the parish school's cafe-gym-itorium.  THAT was an interesting experience that makes me feel compelled to throw my opinion into the great pants vs. skirts debate and my thoughts on appropriate attire for Mass.

I also want to tell you about how Katie seems to have come down with a bit of a cold which made her miserable on Christmas. Like her big sister Ellie, I think Katie freaks out and shuts down when she encounters sensory overload.  This poor child was not happy when we brought her into the family room on Christmas morning and sat her next to her gifts.  Let's just say I'm very happy that I took pictures of Katie and the girls in front of the tree after Christmas Eve Mass, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten any nice pictures.


Despite Christmas day not being as pleasant as I had hoped it would be, we still had a very nice Christmas.  Madeline and Ellie were happy [for the most part--a certain 6 year old doesn't like opening presents] with the new toys and gadgets they received and Bryan didn't guess all of his presents prior to opening them.
