Where, Oh Where has the time Gone?

I'm dreadfully behind in my blogging. Facebook is much easier, but I do enjoy looking at other blogs, so I really must do better about keeping up my own. My parents were here in November and we had such a nice time together. Blake loved having them visit. They spoiled him (and me too). We looked forward to it so much and now they've already been gone for about 3 weeks. We are now looking forward to seeing them and the rest of the Arnold clan in January. We plan to be there for part of the PA Farm Show. Can't wait for those delicious potato doughnuts and piping hot french fries.

This Friday we are hosting our annual Christmas Choir party. Seems there is still so much to do and not enough energy to get it done. It looks like I should have Friday off of work so that will be a huge help in finishing up those last few things. Can't wait to make the food... stuffed shells, stuffed mushrooms and Buffalo Chicken dip are on my menu. I'm sure lots of other yummy things will be brought too. Covenant choir does not lack for good cooks, that is for sure!

Somewhere inbetween now and Friday we must also get in a zoo trip for Festival of the Lights. There was much weeping and wailing when it was discovered that we were not going tonight. Plans are currently in the works to hopefully go with some church friends on Wednesday.

The other night Blake and I put up the Christmas tree and put out my Willow Tree Nativity set. As we were getting the different pieces out of their boxes Blake kept asking where the cow was. Finally we found one with the shephard but it was just a calf and not very big. All of a sudden he got a "bright" idea and said, "I know, I'll get my cow". It doesn't quite fit, and yet I'm not sure I have the heart to move it.



In case it's another 2 months before I post again, let me wish everyone of my 3readers a very Merry Christmas!

I would say don't move the cow.

:-) It will be a fun memory in pics later.
