First Blog

Good Morning one and all. I have decided to create this blogspot for our family. I enjoy typing, but not spending too much time on the computer. Some days more than others. Aahh. The Joys of the upcoming Holidays. All the hustle and bustle. I actually haven't started my "hustle and bustle" yet. I have not yet done ANY christmas shopping. Usually I am ready to start buying in September or sooner. I've done Fresh Apple Cakes for people and have the Dicken's of Christmas coming up Friday to sell at, but I'm not worried, things will get done. This is our first year homeschooling, so we are extra busy and money doesn't go as far as it used to. I used to stress tremendously that everything needed to be just so, with decorations, gifts immediately under the tree. God has seen to it that I have changed my outlook. This year we are having a small birthday party for Jesus, we adopted a family to give gifts to this year with our homeschool group, and will have someone over to eat with us Christmas day to celebrate our dear saviors birth. Yes, the calendar is very full, but with God's help I haven't stressed, so far. :) We hope to go with a friend to take christmas cards to a nursing home for the blessed souls there that we have all made.
