Everything from dental cleanings for three of us, to taking the snack to preschool, to assembling and tagging 30 crystal beaded bookmarks for the YW's Christmas gifts. But, the one I am most grateful is over with...singing in church. Oh, don't forget the fun things on the calendar like the work holiday party- (an hour and a half away), or the progressive dinner -(I skipped and was so mad about) and of course, the true highlight of the week, Bunco at my house. Weekends are for relaxing, right??? Not mine, Saturday my brother & his wife went through the Temple (congrats), plus breakfast with Santa (our in-laws had to take the kids) and putting new light fixtures on the front of the house (thank you very much Smith family for giving us this brilliant idea...), sewing new drapes and a trip to Old Navy. Sadly, there really were about twenty other things I had to do this week too, but, now that the madness is over I feel like I can breathe again. Ok, after I finish this mountain of laundry I can breathe again, hmmmm I love the smell of clean, hot clothes... This week has to be better, right???!
My favorite part about hosting Bunco is getting to buy all the cute gifts, table treats, and finding something yumm-o to make for the dinner!

You have had a busy week! The holidays are almost over, sadly...but we'll all be able to take big deep breaths then!
Yours sounds as crazy as mine. Well, maybe a little bit more crazy! Atleast I didn't have to sing in church! (Which you did beautifully, as always!) One more week, then we can relax. (Actually, not really, Yazee's B-day Party, working like mad, and a 2 week trip overseas!!!) AUGH!!
Busy busy busy! I can't believe how close it is to Christmas and I am so much more behind this year. I am glad your crazy week is over and hopefully this week will be better.
Oh, and cute that Braden wants to be dentist - at least he isn't scared and hating the dentist. And the fog reminds me of OR - I almost miss the fog in the winter.
Wow, you did have a busy week. I can totally relate to you. I feel like I am past all the craziness and now I can sit back and enjoy Christmas. Just breathe...good motto.
Cute gifts! How fun to host it in December for that reason. I think I'd enjoy Christmas a little more if I could spend the week before just staying home. How nice that would be!
I totally know what you mean. I feel like my weeks and weekends are all planned for me. How crazy is it that I actually love running around and being overly busy??
Your Bunco gifts are really cute. We just had our December Bunco last week too. Instead of Prizes we each bring a $15.00 gift and then the order of picking presents goes from biggest loser to most buncos etc. If that makes sense.
The holidays are *so* crazy. It sounds like you had a busy week! Take a deep breath and enjoy the rest of the holidays! And your table is absolutely darling.
It's the "most wonderful time of the year" right?!? I wish I could be in your bunco group.
Amen... it does get a little crazy around the Holidays, but isn't that what makes it fun too?? I am glad your crazy days are over and I do hope you get to spend a few days with your feet up, listening to Christmas music, drinking hot chocolate :)
Your bunco gifts are so cute! We had bunco last night but we didn't even play, we just sat around and chatted like girls having a much needed break. I hope you can relax and enjoy the holidays! It goes by so fast, it'll be February before we know it. Have some fun for me, I'm bored out of my mind until the festivities start this weekend!
you are super busy. i hope things have slowed down a bit for you now.
