CAUTION: Woman In Progress

This ended up going on our Christmas card along with our selfie. Efan in his Snoopy pj's waiting on us to get the goody making train going. Yes, he is sitting on the table. He's a rebel like that. haha They legit used two bottles of sprinkles on the chocolate covered pretzels. Well, I think they also ate sprinkles by the handful, too. The cutest pair of cousins I ever did see. It was Christmas Eve Eve before I got all the presents wrapped and Libby was so over it all. But I managed to get her to pose with them anyway. Peanut Butter Truffle aka Buckeye. That was my Christmas Eve breakfast. Emmy was able to come a couple of days BEFORE Christmas this year which meant she got to participate in Christmas Eve Brunch. Usually it's Christmas Eve Breakfast but she insisted on going hunting that morning which is why she slept all the way to town and why it was brunch instead of breakfast. She did not get a deer the entire time she was here, much to he...

Lyssa-Bear in her cute little Easter frock. ;) Emmy with her handsome beau. They've been dating for a while now and she finally brought him to meet the family. Poor guy. haha Efan-Man, doing what he does, climbing trees in his Easter clothes. Notice the little photo-bomber in the back. He's a treat, I tells ya! I love that they help each other hunt eggs. We had a great time of worship and family fun. Everyone but BIL made it home for the day. He was out of town for work and couldn't get back in time. I really like Emmy's BF. He's a very kind and friendly young man and from everything I've heard, he's very respectful of our Emmy. He even passed Bobo's tough inspection so we know he's a winner! :-D Hope everyone else had a great Easter, too.

 So today was "baking day" with Sis2 and the kiddos. The term "baking day" is pretty loose. Sis2 actually baked one thing. The rest if it was mostly candy making.  Chocolate peanut cluster and turtles. Peanut butter fudge. Haystacks. Sis2 baked chess squares.  But of course there was a lot of playing.  Playing was the best part. Crazy kids.  My kid was pretty worn out. Ha 

Usually this is the time of year where I sign off for two weeks and bid ya'll a happy Christmas, see ya next year, yada yada. Except for one year where I scheduled a few posts for those nine days of break. This year, however, I have the option of posting while I'm at home, thanks to the handy dandy iPhone and the Blogger app. ;-) I can't promise a post every day but I will at least TRY to keep ya'll up with how my vacay's going. You know, so you won't have to deal with a lengthy "What I Did During Christmas Vacation" essay. Although I know ya'll will miss that. haha Anyway, today is the last day of work for NINE days. Well, nine work days. Thirteen days, counting weekends. But whatevs. Almost a full two weeks. We come back on a Friday. Can ya'll believe that mess? *shakes head* I actually don't mind coming back on a Friday though. Sorta helps me ease into the whole back-to-work bidness. Nothing worse than coming back on a Monday and ...

My Papa Elf struck again... :-)

So as usual the DP just isn't into the Christmas card photo junk. See below.  Such a cooperative child. Except not. ;-)
