Getting Ready for Christmas

We are getting ready for Christmas around here. Mike, Jacob, and my dad put lights up on our house this year. Mike and I have been married for seven years and this is the first time that he has put lights on the house. The kids were soooo excited about it. Every night when we come home and the lights are not on they get very disappointed. We have also been driving around looking at Christmas lights. The kids really enjoy them. We were going to do our annual ginger bread house, but Jacob has been sick. We are going to try and do it sometime this week. I think that they will eat all of the candy before it gets on the houses, but that is ok. We always have a good time. Mike has been working alot and on call so we have not done much on the inside we are just soo busy with everything. I know that this can not be an excuse, but I am always tired when I get home and the kids go to bed early, when they go to bed I go to bed. I think I need to stay up and clean my house once in a while then I will take some pictures of the inside.

Every year my mom puts out all of her snowmen. She has all of the stuffed ones on the guest bed. She puts Abby and Jacob on the bed with all of them.
