I finally got the Christmas tree decorated, right before friends showed up for the weekend Friday night. LOL The dogs were too afraid too move when I put their antlers on. Bwahahaha!!!

Hubster and friends go to an annual basketball classic with 4 Indiana teams playing 2 games. This is the last year for the event, but I am sure they will come up with some other event to party at next year. LOL. So we had 3 extras this weekend and then before the game on Saturday we have 5 more for breakfast. So all the cooking and visiting has kept me from the sewing room. And being out of town 3 days didn’t help either. But it’s been good for the knitting!
Hopefully this week I can get my Christmas shopping done! Christmas Day will be quiet around here, with SG and EB gone to visit his family. Diva and family will come over for some Chicken and Dumplings, but Hubster might not even be here due to work. He may not even be able to be at our other family events! Hopefully their issues will be cleared by Dec 31st, when we have our full family celebration here with the addition of my parents and sister.
Christmas is what you make it, and we choose to make it work to get everyone together, rather than throw a fit if they can’t be present on that one “date”. As families grow, the desires of others to be with loved ones and fitting it all in, can make families stressed and hassled. We choose to make accommodations so that our girls won’t have a stressful life with their families around the Holidays. So what if we celebrate it on New Year’s Eve? It’s more about the family time then the calendar time.
