Merry Christmas!

I hope everyone is having a great Christmas.
We had our family all together last Sunday, minus two grandsons.
It was a good day and all the new babies were kinda in awe of everything that was going on.
My niece's grandson, Elijah, was the oldest born last March.
He was busy just jabbering to everyone, and if you weren't paying attention he would turn your face to him and continue his chatter.
I wish I understood his language, because he was really hot about something.
When my youngest G grandson cried he sounded like a donkey, so knowing I would bug his dad I said "Finally another Democrat in the family."
It wasn't appreciated.
Monday I watched my Great Grand daughter Addyson, while her Mom went to orientation for
school.
With her runny nose and her sneezing, I began to think this might have been a mistake.
Another snowy stormy day meant her dad was late picking her up.
I realize now why people have babies while they are still young.
Those four hours wore me out.
My brother came down from Superior and spent a couple days, so I really got behind on things I was going to do.
My friends goody bags are going to be late.
Grandson Nick flew in Wednesday night from Mississippi he is home on leave from the Air force.
Today Hubba and I went to lunch with him and my son and wife.
It was so good to seem him and see how well he is doing.
So far he seems to enjoy being in the military and maybe will make it a career.
He is in training to be a Cyber Systems Annalist maybe it will keep him away from the mountains of Afghanistan.
Over all it has been a good Holidays, and I just hope that the New Year brings us a better economy
I am proud of what our President has managed to do in the last couple weeks.
Hopefully more will get done to help those who need it most.

I woke up Wed. with the beginnings of a cold and it has turned miserable so I am skipping Christmas Eve Mass and see how I am tomorrow.
Wishing all a great Christmas and a Happy New year.
Now to my favorite Christmas song sung by favorite singer from the past and his daughter from the present.

I hope you feel better soon! It's not just you...every time I visit my family and spend time with my little sibs I am absolutely wiped out!

Love them both! Good choice!
Feel better, and I certainly know what you mean about the kids wearing you out and getting you sick! As you know I'm doing it 24/7!!!
Hope you are in better shape for NY!
