whoosh
it’s that time again…
and for me this time of year is busier than just getting ready for Christmas. with Paul & Harmony’s bday in November and Avery’s in December, keeping on top of all the family plans and events is a busy job!
I get sucked into this void where running the family seems to require an office staff. But I like doing it. having the printed out Christmas wishlist and shopping lists and budjets and card checklists and cards and address labels and newsletter (although this year Paul picked out the paper and it’s a great choice!).
Family photo? check. But I think this might be our last year at Sears portrait studio. We’ve been going there for so long that we’ve done almost all the backgrounds. So I think next year for our yearly Christmas portrait we’ll get one of our many photography-talented friends to snap a pic of the 4 of us in front of the tree or something (which will be in front of our lovely big living room window I think!). 
Harmony’s birthday is tomorrow!! The big “ten-oh” as I say (right before my hubby pokes fun at me). I bought a “0″ candle so now we have all the numbers! 
The “0″ will get good use as Paul and I turn 30 in a couple years and then Avery’ll turn 10 a few years after that.
More to blog about later, but I started this one on the 24th and wanted to finish it. 
I’m thinking of switching back to LJ for the blog portion of my krismom site, what do you think? I kinda miss the comments. And the userpics!

Ah, no! Not the big 3-0 for all of us! Too scary.

I know a photographer who can snap a pick for you who lives close to your new lovely big living room window!

I miss taking pics there. I hope I can make the housewarming when you are in the new one!
This year I am actually sending out via CP instead of email! I’m so excited!
Busy busy busy we all are at this time of year no matter where we are!

Oh ya, I like LJ because I get messages that say when you’ve replied. I have missed so many now!
Only just catching up now, today with all the hectic-isms happening here
