Finally an update

So I am noticing that I never have time to update, hmm I wonder why that is? Well I think I have finally figured it out, so here it is for all of my diligent followers. . . December is kind of a crazy month at my house to begin with, we have 4 b-days (Andren, Bricanie, Mine and Dale) two of which I have to plan parties for (that's right mine and Dale's LOL) Andren and Bricanie. Obviously Andren's is done (pictures to follow someday)and Bricanie's is getting closer by the minute and the day (not really but it sounded good) I did however manage to get her invitations printed (her party is only in a week AHHHHHH!!!)

So here is the short version of what needs to still be done for her b-day
Decorations
Capes
make wands
potions
treat bags
cake
mail invitations

umm really looking at this list what have I really accomplished? Good question, I really don't know, but it will be done before her party I promise.

OK besides birthdays there is the obvious-CHRISTMAS, and I am usually so good and am done shopping by Thanksgiving or before. Not this year. the kids are so extremely hard to buy for this year. They really do not play with toys and we have to many so if they do we really do not need anymore. And can I just say that I think stockings should definitely be outlawed. Who came up with the idea anyway? It makes my brain hurt always trying to come up with things to put in them.

So this year I decided it would be a good idea to make rag quilts for the nieces and nephews my kids have and my MIL,SIL, and FIL (if you guys read this sorry for the spoiler but just to let you know they may not be finished in time LOL). See what happens when I have good ideas, they cause me stress. So I have 3 completely done, two that are almost sewn and then needs to be cut, 1 that needs to be cut and 1 that I have not even started.

On top of those I have 2 others that I am working on also. so in all I still have quite a bit of work and not a lot of time. (remind me next year when I think to make presents not to would you?)

Then as many of you know a few weeks ago I was put in as the Primary Chorister and anyone who knows me knows that I can not do anything easy so it literally takes me the entire week to plan my singing time. In fact Thursday night I kept waking up all night stressing because I was not done with it.

OK so we have birthdays, Christmas, and primary, CHECK, now what else is keeping me so busy you ask? I would have to say Dance, Enrichment, (yes I know I am not on the committee anymore) 4 kids, (all out of school until the 5 of January), and My house that I clean and clean and clean yet it never seems to look or stay clean. UGH

Oh well at least I have a fun decorated house outside, (that was rated a 10 in priesthood today by one of the neighbors) YEAH US!!!!

So now you know why I never update though I really wish that I could. I keep thinking that I am just going to put everything else on hold so I can upload some pictures or just update, but you can see how well that has worked right?

11 days til Christmas and even though it is crazy and chaotic at my house I still love Christmas and can not wait.
