What I did on Christmas Vacation...

What I did on Christmas Vacation...

Why does time fly so fast when you're on vacay? I know it flies when I'm actually traveling somewhere, but even when I have a whole week off to do what I please at home instead of running through airports  it goes by in a blink of an eye. I wasn't around much here in blogland last week as I was trying to soak up time with family and friends over the holiday week, and I enjoyed every second of it and was reminded over and over again how over the top blessed we are. I know Thanksgiving was last...

Feel free to hate me now ;-) But... before all the Christmas festivities get kicked off we had a very important birthday to celebrate this weekend. Since Emily went...
