It's Christmas Eve!!!

It's been a little while since my last post because we have moved and finished unpacking!  YES the unpacking is DONE!!  However, we have 1 room and the garage that have becoe the "catch all" areas, lol.  Since I'm on vacation for the next 2 weeks I will be working on that! 

I have started a new cleaning/organizational system for the new house!  Bubba and I bought a book about organizing your house cleaning a while bqck as kinda joke for me.  But I finally cracked it it open and found it VERY inspiring!  I have also found my new LOVE!  A tv show about OCD people and their day to day trials.  This has been also very inspiring!  To me some are a bit over board, like cleaning toilets with toothpicks and spraying yourself and the other person with a  hydrogen peroxide mixture prior to physical contact is a bit much, lol!  So this house has been CLEAN for about a full week now!  It has it's little messes because I have 2 boys who are 8 and 6, and a hubby who struggles with finding the laundry basket and cleaning the sink after he brushes his teeth, but other than that, Life is good!!

So, It's Christmas Eve, and I have TONS of stuff to do!  I have to do my baking all within the next 3 hours because we are headed to see Bubba's parents and do our gift exchange.  It's been a VERY slim Christmas, but we really focused more on the REAL meaning of this holiday to try and get the younger boys to realize that Santa is Heavenly Father's helper!  That Santa helps children, who haven't been taught about HIM yet, to strive to behave and be charitable!  We tried the Elf on the Shelf thing this year, but Keegans friend touched him, so we had to keep the word of the elf and he lost his magic and went back to the North Pole :(  Quite honestly, it was a chore finding different hiding spots, lol.  Maybe next year they will have a better understanding that Santa means what he says ;)

Ok, so for my newest Memory Sessions!  Here are the ones I REALLY like!
