The Christmas Rundown

After all the preparation and hoopla, I feel like I have to write about Christmas one last time to give it some closure.  I know this is coming a little late, but I’ve been sick.  (Actually I’m still sick, and I’m hoping … Continue reading

Visions of Sugarplums

The other night on the way home from Gui’s mom’s house, both boys fell asleep in the backseat.  It was so cute, mainly because it is such a rare occurrence these days.  I looked back there and said, “Aww, they probably have … Continue reading

Hangin’ with the Big Man

Everyone with kids knows that visiting Santa is an essential part of the holiday season.  We’ve done it, not once, not twice, but three times this year.  And they were all in the same weekend.  It wasn’t intentional; Santa just happened to … Continue reading
