What a crazy week! I feel like I can say that every week lately. This last week was such a blur I cannot even recall what we all did! On Friday night, we went out and looked at the Christmas lights in Omaha. We went to the nice neighborhoods first. Alivia kept saying, “More baby Jesus” and “More Santa’s.” She really had fun. There is one house near our home that has every decoration under the sun. It is crazy! We joked about how our lights do not compare to what we just saw in the “nice” neighborhoods. We at least try year after year, though.
On Saturday, we got up and went out and looked at a couple places for more Christmas lights for our trees in the yard. I should take a picture of our lights so that everyone can see what we DID do. Chris does do a nice job. We then went to Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Bob’s house for Grandpa’s birthday. We stayed a while before giving up (they never came home!). In the afternoon, we went to Church for reconciliation.
Today was Graybill Christmas at my parent’s house in Iowa. It was nice to see everyone. My Grandmother did not seem well today and that was difficult to see. She is now 91 years old. Alivia opened her first present and it was a Doctors kit. She loves it! She also opened Addison’s little choo choo. Addison does not know what to think about all the commotion. It all just makes her tired. We came home, cleaned up and got ready for another busy week.
Tomorrow, after nearly 2 years, Alivia is going to get her hair trimmed. I say trimmed because that is all Mommy is ready to do to her beautiful hair. I have a long list of things to do, including get a couple last minute presents (my list is longer than the alphabet this year!). My boss is coming on Wednesday and Thursday to ride with me. I got a new boss a few months ago, which was a nice change. However, there is always more to do when she comes (and it is a busy week to have more business to do). Chris plans on taking the girls to see Santa on Wednesday at the Mall. Alivia knows Santa is not real – but he is like any other pretend cartoon (like Mickey Mouse or something). The presents come from Mommy and Daddy to signify gifts given to Baby Jesus. On Thursday we are going to Great Grandma and Grandpa Biga’s House to share some Mama’s Pizza for dinner. Alivia & Daddy are already looking forward to this! Then the Christmas parties will begin.
