The Countdown has begun!!!

We CAN NOT wait until Friday!!! We are going to FL for Christmas, and all of Rich's siblings & spouses & kids will be there. This will be the first time that all of us have been together, for longer than 2 hours! We are all excited and can't wait to visit with everyone. We are also trying to stay healthy - so that we can spend time with Andrew, too. So far, so good - even Kalee is uncharacteristically healthy! We are keeping her hopped up on Vitamin C and Zicam! We were going to take her to Chucky Cheese's over the weekend, but thought twice when we really thought about all the germs that are probably all over everything there!! And Rich bought little hand sanitizers that attach to Kalee's backpack and he told her to make sure she uses it for everything this week!!! Fun times!

We can't wait to see our friends, too. Life has been a little stressful (for me, at least) as we prepare to take the huge step of building. Nothing like questionable economic times to freak me out! At least mortgage rates are getting low! But, this trip more than ever, I am really ready to "decompress" with our friends. I am missing that outlet more than ever. So, beware, guys!!!

Kalee is in her school play (she's the Sun!) and she has performances tonight and tomorrow. I know this week will fly by. My work's "Christmas Lunch" is Friday, so we will be on the road after that. I am soooo ready for it to be Friday!

HAVE A BLAST & "DECOMPRESS"! My favorite Christmas memory is when we had everyone at our house for Christmas. Us kids got up that moring to find the living room literally piled almost to the ceiling with presents. I don't even remember seeing the floor till we cleaned up most of the wrapping paper. Have fun,this will definately be a Christmas you'll remember for a VERY long time! Tell everyone we send our love! XOXO Bec
