Christmas 2020

I literally just noticed I never posted our Christmas card.

So here it is.

I mean to be real we still wear these pajamas all the time so we're

Annual Christmas Eve Journal Write 2020

 What on earth can possibly be said on this Christmas Eve 2020?

I don't even know where to start.

And I'm afraid once I do I won't stop.

So I won't.

The kids are asleep and soon so shall we be.

Christmas 2019

We wanna wish you a:

Annual Christmas Eve Journal Write 2019

I just read through last year's ACEJW and felt a grim realization that I failed in my resolve to get and stay caught up on blogging for 2019 almost 100%.  Then I realized I have done okay staying caught up on Instagram and really that seems to be the way things are going anyway and I refer to that a lot instead soooo maybe that's just what's going to happen.

But you know I'm still going to drop a line here once or twice a year, even if it's just to say hello and merry Christmas Eve.

I've been doing a bit of a juggling act lately but I think I'm finding a pretty good balance.  It's true that I don't even have a picture of our Christmas tree to put on here but wait, you know what?  I can go take one right now, why not?  Stand by...

THERE. I did a thing.  I had an idea and I stood up and followed through, and that's a Christmas Eve win.  And I just realized that there's the white lights in that middle section are out.  This is real life.

Anyway, it was a busy and crazy and wonderful year and 2020 is looking to be a pretty good one too.

I may not be blogging regularly anymore but you know I'm going to document this:

From all of us to all of you:

Annual Christmas Eve Journal Write 2018

I had grand plans to be caught up by tonight but I'm not but I still want to do my annual Christmas Eve Journal Write.

(Incidentally one of my goals for 2019 is to be better about staying caught up on my blog by the way.  I know no one reads these anymore but I actually refer to it quite often and find it a great resource even as a personal journal and photo depository.)

We had Mom and Dad over for fondue again this year and it was sooooo delicious and I'm not regretting in the least all the treats I've been eating over the last week or so.

Christmas is all set to go and the kids are asleep and I finished my 4:50 dead hangs (ouch why) and we're looking forward to a loud and busy and tons of fun day tomorrow.  We watched The Small One tonight and it was a little magical to watch Charlie (5.5) figure out the twist in the last seconds.

The Wife is sitting at my side working on her brand new laptop with a light-up keyboard and it brings me a lot of joy that it brings her a lot of joy.

This year's Christmas pajamas from Mom featured shorts and I'm okay with this.

Anyway, Santa should be here any second, in fact I think he already showed up, so I better get to bed.
