Well I just had a solid sob fest and feel like my Chrustmas spirit is a little broken.
DH & DD were putting the topper on the tree and I was taking their picture. They dropped it and smashed it to bits.
My grandmother gave me the Angel and I'm so sad.

I'm soooooo sorry. My mama mailed me all my ornaments the year my son was born. They date back to the year I was born (we got one each year). They weren't heirlooms, but a TON were broken in the mail. My mom barely wrapped them. I'm still upset and we haven't decorated since. All that to say, I get it.

Good morning @osw !

We watched Rudolph the red nose reindeer and wrapped Christmas presents last night. Since we travel for Christmas we do our Christmas early.
Soooo it's technically Christmas morning here. Haha.
Waiting on DH to come home from surfing and DD to wake up (no idea why I'm up so early).

jennykat Christmas Day evening. We're getting a cake for after dinner.

I'm making a copycat Starbuck's Lemon Loaf and I can't wait to eat it.

We took DS to the local train expo today. He loved it

It took about 15 extra minutes to cook for some reason. Other than that super easy.

Phewwwwww just finished my two year old's birthday party. It was chaos. 😊

[hpnegirl]

heisenberg, how did it go besides chaos?

I think DS is going to get the short end of the stick this year.. we only had one guest last year for his birthday and this year, the weekend after is the women's march that I'm pretty sure we're gonna attend. Instead, he's getting a doctor's appointment on his birthday for his well child check up 😂🙄

It went well! We threw it together Friday and Saturday and just had people over for brunch (bagels), mimosas, and cupcakes. Pro-tip: just get a shitload of balloons and you don't have to decorate. But if you don't do something, that's cool too. No one remembers their second birthday.
