Santa Time

  Getting into the holiday spirit has been a little different here this year. Our household is getting back to normal, after a hard decision, following a hard 9 months for us. I am finally feeling more free to breathe, and it showed me not only about myself, but how I will handle things differently.
   But, now with Christmas all the more closer and the promise of spending some time in warmer weather with my dad's side of the family, I am finally feeling the excitement (though I do wish I could be in two places at once to also spend the day as we normally do with my mom's side.)
   Tonight I picked up Day, after getting his friend Richard (who acknowledges he is another of my sons haha) and Richard's two sisters. We went to the new drive-thru light display for our area, then rode around looking at home and city decorations. J and T even each sat with Santa individually! Thankfully they were already in the mood after getting their videos from Santa today (seriously, if you haven't done PNP - Personal North Pole for your kids, DO IT!) Tomorrow we will be making ornaments, which I want to make a yearly thing, hope I don't run out of ideas!
