"Have a Holly Jolly Christmas"

Here is our happy crue with it's dreams coming true :)
Halloween Disney style: ages 9 months to 93!!
Today is a "work day" in our house. I am frantically trying to do laundry, dishes, Christmas cards and keep the peace while Buck watches way too much TV and Thunder makes every mess imaginable. All of these letters keep saying how awesome it is to have a family and live lives of fullness and joy...and OF COURSE, I agree with them. But, every now and then I'd like to live a life of movies and drunkenness. I'd like to sleep until 10am and go out for a quiet breakfast with RKZ. I'd like to only be responsible for my own poop and cutting my own food. Every now and then. And then, Buck will learn the "extra" words to "Rudolph the Rednose Raindeer" or Thunder will cry when I try to leave him with a sitter, and my heart will break a little and I'll remember why I prayed for them.

Not today, exactly, but this is a pretty good life if you can get it.
