Been away too long

Finally home and I think rested, tree decorated, and hopefully Christmas finished. We spent a wonderful week on the Coast of Texas between Galveston and Corpus Christi. We were able to see so many family members and friends.

The two ladies on the bottom right are my Daddy’s sisters. This was wonderful.

We left Saturday about noon and drove home. Only 19 hours but then we stopped in San Marcos, Texas at the outlet malls for 2-3 hours and then south of Waco for an hour at Buckees. This is a mix of Walmart and gas station on Steroids will all things Texas and Buckees. Buckee is a Beaver. If you are curious here is their website. https://www.buc-ees.com/index.php

Got home about 7am on Sunday, unpacked did laundry, and visited with the kids. Monday got Christmas tree out and went out to do some Grocery shopping (the cupboards were bare.) Son, Daughter in law, Daughter and granddaughter came for dinner and then yesterday Destiny and I decorated the tree and got some other things out. Hubby and finished our Christmas Shopping and I am all tuckered out. Today will bring wrapping packages, and spending time in the sewing room, (I haven’t for about 2 weeks 😦 Tomorrow brings baking, candy making, and roast cooking for tamales.

Whew! So much to do and it will be fun. I will post a little of all I get done.

One the One Creative Family issue, not much creating getting done. Mary works for the Post Office and is working 6 10-12 hour days, raise a family, and is ready to drop. Alicia is car hunting. A drunk driver hit her daughter head on (Emily was not seriously hurt, Thank God. but still has headaches and some other issues) Alicia’s van is a loss. Ashley is all in for the Christmas Season and is busy decorating and loving this time of the year. So 2019 is ending crazy, but that means 2020 is going to be wonderful.

How is your December going? Any fun activities? Family traditions? I am seriously interested.

Stay safe out in the world.
