Now that the holiday season is over and the stockings are becoming un-hung, we can relax and look forward to another year of health and happiness.
Now get out to all the stores and buy up all the clearance
crap items starting at 50% off. And if you're like me, you'll tell yourself, "I'm going to buy NOW for next Christmas," then next Christmas Eve you're struggling to find a Mini-Mart open to buy your last-minute lottery tickets and chewing tobacco for Uncle Bob.
(no offense to our real Uncle Bob, who doesn't gamble or use tobacco...that we know of and if he does, I'm sorry Uncle Bob that we just outed you in a generic kind of way!).

I swear, I have never seen pure unbridled joy on a child's face like I do in every pic I see of your youngest daughter's. Happy holidays to you all, and thank goodness the madness is done with!

Such a cute picture! We went to Target yesterday, and oh my goodness, the craziness of all of those people!

Darling picture of a beautiful family. I agree with derfina on the "unbridled joy." Does that kid ever NOT smile for a camera?

I am so glad that Christmas is Dunzo! I waited way too long this year to get my shopping done. Too stressful, remind me not to do that again next year.
Now on to the new year and my resolutions LOL
December 28, 2008 at 7:00 PM
I finally made it to the mall 2 days ago, and talk about crazy! I was nearly killed by a lady in the Nordstrom shoe department over a pair of boots.
