It is so hard to believe it's Christmas eve already. The boys will be home soon. I have to think of something to keep them occupied today. I hope the day goes fast and they go to bed early. I can't wait to see them open thier presents in the morning! That's my favorite thing about Christmas. My second favorite thing is eating at my moms! She always makes a big dinner, not to mention the appetizers served all day, and she is a really great cook. Usually we have a dinner at home today for just us, but we didn't have enough money this year. It'n nmot like we're going to starve though. We have food. Just not the expensive Christmas dinner stuff. This will be the first year that we haven'e done it, but it's ok. I don't have to spend all day in the kitchen. I can relax and spend time with my family.
