Almost Ready

Wrapping is done, baking is in progress, laundry is in the dryer.  I'm glad to have this extra day to get ready in between the family Christmas party with about 25 of my cousins yesterday (cute babies and little girls in party dresses, so adorable! But who knew little kids could be so rambunctious and scream so loud when they're excited? Oh wait, I guess we did know that would probably happen...)

and going home to my mother's house tomorrow for a couple of days of seasonal festivities with friends and family.
