Holiday recap in a collage

Unfortunately these days blogging is always the last item on my never ending lists of must do's, should do's, and would be nice to get to's!!! So you get holidays in condensed collage form. We enjoyed Thanksgiving with some friends and one of our favorite traditions, gingerbread houses. We kicked off our Christmas countdown with lots of decorating, ornament making, holiday baking, a little party for our sunday school kids from church, "camping" in our CA winter wonderland while watching the Grinch, Christmas with my brother, games, visiting a butterfly preserve, tide pools, lots of yummy food, sunsets and warm, warm beach weather. Now I am happy to see my calendar mostly empty this month (at least for right now) and might enjoy some time to spring clean, knit and make room for Bagley #3 due in 3 months!!! Hope all of you had a great holiday season and a good start to 2012. This year has to be good since it is the end of the world, right!!!!
