HOLIDAZE

I remember going to sleep the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, excited that my family would be arriving from SC in just a few hours and frustrated that I had to work the next day. When I awoke at 5 AM, I reached for my phone to silent the alarm. Sleepily, I read the date that was displayed across the top of my phone...January 5, 2010!!! For me the Holidays were a Holidaze.The 2009 Holiday season went by so fast that it seems as though it was all just dream.

During my sleep I believe I dreamed that I hosted Thanksgiving dinner at my home this year, 11 people slept in my house, we exchanged Christmas gifts and had family pictures taken. Oh wait I have the pictures to prove that this really happened.

One of Ellie's Christmas gifts from Nana and Poppy was getting her ears pierced. She was scared but so brave.


In my dreams I had visions of...
Visiting Santa and shopping trips to the mall

Christmas Decorations and cute Christmas outfits

Visits from Santa's Elf

Baking Christmas cookies


Christmas parties (dressed in tacky Christmas outfits)

Time spent with family

Christmas presents

And two very excited kids








Eventhough I feel as though I blinked and the Holiday Season had past, my heart feels full and happy. Our family had a great Thanksgiving and celebrated a wonderful Christmas season together.
