Its getting that time!!!

Well its almost here. Its almost xmas. I must say this is not my favorite time of year. I for one do not like the cold weather. But i do like all the good food. Thats one of the perks of the Holiday season. We took our yearly trip to Tongaknoxie Kansas this past weekend. Ohh, what fun that was. Okay well not really. We stayed with Johns cousin and He and his wife have a little boy who is 5 and a little girl who will be 2 in january. So of course Tanner beat up Easton all weekend and Loagin picked on Reese all weekend. That made for some good crying, Other than that everything went really well. The kids didnt fight at all on the 4 hour drive up there nor did they on the way home. Maybe that was because we took a dvd player in the car with us so they could watch movies all the way there. :) it worked.! Now we just have to get ready for the nonstop xmas action that begins in two weeks. I think from there on out we have something somewhere. I believe this year i counted that we have about 7 or 8 christmas gatherings to attend. So our santa may not be bringing quite as much as our kids would like for him to but we discussed with the kids that santa also got us a new car this year so he wasnt going to be bringing as much. They are okay with that. I think they know they will get plenty of other toys and stuff from there grandparents. Also. john and i know that so we are not as worried about it either. My concern now is Loagins birthday 3 days before xmas, we have to have his party a few weeks in advance to make time for all the other plans that we have which kinda sucks for him. But we must have a party!! well i guess i had better get back to filling out my info for school, i am ready to go back but then again i am not. well see how it works. Hope all of you out there have a great Holiday Season and write more later.
