Merrily, Merrily Christmas World!

So I've been a bad blogger lately, but our lives have been insane.  I've been determined in spite of my health and house dramas to have a dissertation chapter turned in by the end of the year, and as the previous entry mentioned Tracy and I handmade 90% of our Christmas gifts.  It's been a wild, wild ride. 

Still, I just turned the chapter in.  My pumpkin pie for one of our family dinners just came out of the oven.  I still have a warm house, an awesome husband, and lots of family holiday goodness to look forward to this weekend.  There's bright sunshine out my window, no snow in the forecast (sorry skiers) and I'm feeling the Christmas glow.    I truly hope that everyone has an amazing Christmas, and that the spirit of a baby born in Bethlehem over 2000 years ago feels you with love and joy. 

Merry Christmas!
