Well Goodmorning boys and girls! It’s a busy holiday weekend and I haven’t had a moment to sit down and catch up with you. So I’m trying to sneak it in now!

We went to a christmas party Friday night and had a great time. I avoided all goodies with no problems. They had veggie and fruit trays so I stuck with them. We were suppose to go to another friends Christmas party last night but opted out. There are always a lot of drinkers there and so we decided to skip it and just went out and delivered gifts to other people we know. Al made me and some of our friends Custom fireplace doors for Christmas. They are wonderful. We had a great time going and delivering these.

Today is Al’s grandmothers Christmas and So I made my normal salad which i’d be killed for if I didn’t lol. Basically it’s just Broccoli, Califlower, Cucumbers, Carrots and diced ham. Then you add some ranch dressing to it! The secret to this is chopping everything very very small which takes forever. Then just adding enough ranch for taste.

Then NaCole and I made a dozen mini fresh Apple loaves for Al’s grandpa who loves them. So we made them where they are single servings so he can freeze them and just pull out one when he wants.’

We also made shortbread cookies then dipped half in chocolate and rolled in nuts. I think the kids will enjoy them today.

Tomorrow we are off to my family’s house which is about 2 hours away we will spend the night and return Tuesday evening. Al and I both work on Wednesday so we’ve got to get home and rest up!

I’m squeezing in exercise every free moment I can. It’s hard when you are running around non stop.

Merry Christmas everyone. I wish you Love, Joy, and Faith, I also wish each of you the ability to never give up Hope!!!
