Our tree is up and the lights are now on it, but still no ornaments.  It’s kinda beautiful with just the white lights.  The only problem: I think I may be allergic to it.  I’ve sneezed and wheezed and blown my nose until it’s raw.  Tucker has, too.  So I’m hoping it’s something else in the air and not the tree…because I love live trees and I’d hate to have to give that up.

We had a great, lazy day today.  My mom and dad kept the kids again last night(have I mentioned how much I LOVE living close to them again???), and I was able to sleep late this morning AND read in bed.  What a treat!

After I got up and dressed, I went over to my parent’s house and we made a gingerbread house, which the kids thought was really cool.  I do have pictures, but I haven’t downloaded them off my camera yet.  I’ll try to do that tomorrow so that you all can see our work of art!

After that, we lounged around the rest of the afternoon.  We were even able to play outside for a while because a) it wasn’t cold and b) it wasn’t raining like it was supposed to be! 

Anyway, I’m off to end my day the perfect way: Snuggling with my sweeties while they finish watching the classic Rudolph movie.
