Well it is the day after Christmas, and it is time to get back into some routine. I love Christmas, but I am always glad when it is over. We had an awesome Christmas, as I hope you all did as well. My kids loved everything they got. It was wonderful having my sister here. She will be leaving on Sunday, to go back to North Carolina. It was almost 85 yesterday, and we sat outside in the evening, while the dog, and the kids ran, and played. It was so cold in November, that this was a nice break from the freezing temps we had been experiencing. My mom, of course, was here and she loved the necklace I made for her. Because we are from NY, most of our families are back there. My one sister still lives there, and we text a lot. My husband's whole family is there, as well. We gave his Dad a webcam, for Christmas, and the whole family got on so everyone could see, and say hello. I think this gift was as important to Craig's dad, as it was for Craig. You can not touch your loved ones, but at least you can see, and hear them. And for 25 dollars each, it is not costly at all. So all in all it was a splendid day, but I am definitely glad to get back to some normal routines around here. How was your Chrismtas? Please feel free to share.
