I got all the Christmas Cards mailed out yesterday. Jon and I both have good size extended families so I got made 40 copies of the picture and still only have 2 left. When I got them developed I forgot to take the red eye out, which makes me so mad at myself. This is the only picture Chief would smile in and Col was not dressed in his best go figure. I hope you all can enjoy getting ready for the holidays. I love Christmas even though it was hard to get motivated this year but this year I think a lot of families will remember what Christmas is really about. I am as bad as anyone else and get wrapped up in the whole big Christmas gift buying and stuff. So this year has been really kind of enjoyable and I have not felt so rushed and felt like I had to try and get the best for everybody. Most all of the gifts are homemade. Which is stressful trying to get everything done. I am making Jayme my niece a Blue and Gold fleece blanket that has her name on it which I got 1 yard of each which total blanket cost $6.00 then I got her a cap from the Razorback store (the buy one get one for $.99 sale plus the day I got it was on the staff and faculty sale day 25% off everything in the store sale). I am putting together calendars for both Nana and Papa and Granny and Grandps of my sister Lisa and my kids and on Thanksgiving I had the kids put hand prints on dish towels to give to them too. I just have a few to get few things to make the kids and I do lots of baking.
You all should read this post off this blog I think my life and hers is a lot a like sometimes.

Wow! You are ahead of me. Actually, I can't manage cards this year. It's the first year since I got married that I am not doing Christmas cards. I still have too many balls in the air, and that one fell down. Oh, well. I'll do an online version!! (Is that cheating??)
I love that cute picture! Chief has a precious smile!!!
