So we're continuing to get ready for the holidays. Most of the shopping is done and gifts wrapped. Abby's done with school, and Maggie has 2 more exams tomorrow (sigh). Today we were up at 6am and disappointed (but not surprised!) that no one came to see us.....
Mom and dad arrived last Wednesday and have had a busy time since then. Thursday we headed to Abby's school for the 5th grade play and holiday sing-a-long. Friday mom and I took Maggie and 2 other girls to/from school for their exam. We spend the time strolling Whole Foods, having a cup of coffee, then checking out Chico's across the street. After coming home and a quick lunch, Dad, Maggie and I headed out to equip mom's stocking with gifts. Saturday was piano lessons and some relaxation (ahhhhhh). Yesterday we enjoyed Abby's violin recital followed by an afternoon of quizzing Maggie for her exams, and watching both the Steelers and the Saints lose....Today I took the girls to school and headed to the gym. After a shower, mom and I went to the grocery (of course, there's already 3 new things on the list!) and right now Tom's on his computer, mom, dad and Abby are at Walgreen's and Maggie's studying.
Tom has his first cataract surgery scheduled for Wednesday -- be considerate and say a prayer for him, please!
Enjoy the holiday ramp-up......
I really enjoyed the family pic -- a rare treat! I'll say a prayer for Tom. Keep us posted.
