It is that time of the year again. I don't know how it happened! Where did this year go!??!?!
Here in Kansas we have been saving up -so we decided to wait till the after-season
specials to buy Xmas decorations. But that didn't stop the Xmas spirit because, well, it c
annot be stopped! Yesterday at some point in the morning, while talking to my little sister A, I felt a burst of excitement when I remembered mom had given Q and I a beautiful angel last Xmas. I rushed downstairs to look for it in the basement. I found it in a box labeled "Xmas
," of course, and discovered it wasn't the only thing there! There were a few more ornaments, mostly gifts from our very first Xmas as a married couple, and so the Xmas decoration craze began. Mom's angel saved our Christmas spirit this year.Well, Q was w
orking that morning, but he gave us the internet radio tip, and A and I turned on the Xmas station and went to work. We made little paper bows to decorate everything! We put gift wrap in our picture frames! We made a Christmas tree with some veil from the wedding! We jumped and danced and laughed uncontrollably! Q came home soon after, and he got us some egg-nog and made us some wonderful dinner. We watched "A Charlie Brown's Christmas" and ate Q's spaghetti (no one makes it better than him!)We had quite a wonderful, Xmas-y day :)
