Merry Christmas to All!

I didn't really get into the Christmas spirit this year because so many things have been going on. With my Grandpa's passing it was tough to celebrate because I felt a little bit guilty. I barely managed to get Christmas cards out this week. Thank God for one hour photo or I would not have been able to get my Christmas cards out this year! With all of the sadness in my heart I never got around to decorating the Christmas tree. The tree is up but there are no decorations on it this year.
My sister and my nephew just boarded a plane back to South Carolina this morning and we are going to miss them. They were supposed to spend Christmas and the New Year with us but the funeral brought them out sooner than expected and they had to head back home. My nephew is a handful but is he is as cute as a button! He keeps my sister very busy to say the least!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to each and every one of you. I hope that 2013 brings you all much happiness and many PR's!

Do you have big plans for the holidays?
I think we are going to stay close to home and relax. We are also planning a trip to Disneyland. My son has been wanting to visit Cars Land since it opened. 

I am also determined to hit 1000 miles this year and I am about 41 miles away from hitting my goal! I will be busy working on this goal as well!

    1. Thank you for the comforting thoughts. I know he is in a better place but it just makes the holidays a little less joyful this year. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your beautiful little family too :)

    1. Yes Missy, I know that he is watching over us. I just wish he could have hung in until after the holidays. I didn't think that we would be without him this year. I hope you and your family have a great holiday season!
