Visions of iPods dancing in their heads....

OK... I know I was terrible with Christmas when I was a wee thing. But I am amazed and just how truly persistent my kiddies are. Not in so much as snooping, or shaking the gifts already nestled under the tree, but in good-old-take-after-mom-fashion....
They have poked and prodded at my mental hiding capacity. A comment here, or a question there all in some malicious set-up in hopes that I blunder...
I won't budge!
I won't bend!
Gosh.. I hope I don't slip up!!!

Countdown is on....



Recently we made the trip up to NYC. I personally haven't made it in many years, and at 12 and 7 years respectively, my kiddies have never been there! Not like we aren't right next to the train, or highway, or anything else for that matter to get us there, we just have never gone.

They were so excited, we stopped off to see the tree, and thus started the countdown...

How many days til Christmas?

Do we count Christmas Eve? Do we count today? What if today is half over?

well..... we decided... three more days.....

and counting.... HO HO HO!
