Nice and Quiet Now

We had a lovely Christmas. Everything went as planned, we ate and ate, unwrapped and enjoyed our family time. The food and gifts were good and plenty. Time to wind down now and get back on a normal schedule. I hope that doesn't sound like I am ungrateful or don't know how fortunate I really am but, there is no way folks can keep up the frantic pace we all seem to thrive on around the holidays. The body needs REST, less rich food and not quite so much excess in our lives. Christmas comes but once a year.............and that is a good thing!!!

Julia and I got a special package from Santa............tomorrow night we are going to ASU Gammage to see the Broadway production of "ANNIE"! She is wearing her Christmas dress and Mom is taking us to dinner first. Julia asked if it could be somewhere "nice". (this is at age 7, by age 10 she will want a limo!) Nana will have a chance to wear her new black dress pants and new earrings. We are both very excited about our girls night out!

How wonderful! Have a great time.

We've decided to do "all homemade" for next Christmas. I should be able to make up 6 table toppers.

We're received a CITRUS BOX from one of dh's brothers. lol He has no idea what we have..an orange tree, a lemon tree and a grapefruit!
