And I was doing so well...

I went almost a month without a post! Darn it! Well, nothing too exciting has been happening with us. Tim started back on his rotation this week. This one is more interesting than his last one. He will get to observe some surgeries as well as make trips to the PICU and NICU.

I am so excited about Christmas being around the corner. It is all I can do to not go ahead and decorate now! I love the whole "feeling" of Christmas. Christmas was NEVER about gifts when I was growing up, and I am so grateful to my parents for making it like that. We always did a Christmas advent and read the Christmas story before doing anything on Christmas day. I hope our children grow up knowing that we observe Jesus' birthday on Christmas and that is really what it's all about. What am I doing talking about all this....you'll hear enough about it from me next month!

My parents came this weekend and brought the rest of my great-grandmother's furniture to finish off the guest bedroom. I am using the dresser as my desk now, and it looks so good in there! My great-grandmother, Grandma Pug, is the one who first started my love of cooking. The first thing I ever made was in her kitchen. She was so special to me and I miss her very much.

Well, I'm sorry this post is rather boring. We really need some excitement around here!! :-)

Yahooo...a post from Randi! I really can't say a word...I haven't been too faithful in adding to my blogspot either. But I will try to do better. I am with you, Randi. I am ready to start decorating for the holidays. I have out my Thanksgiving stuff and have my Cinnamon Cider Aromatique candle going, so it at least smells like the holidays. But I don't want to rush Christmas, because I love the Thanksgiving holiday. I just love cooking the big dinner for all of us. Ummmmm...I can just taste it. Anyway, good to hear what is going on with you!
