A long time coming.

Lonnie has worked, oh I don't know, 45 days in a row?  Not really, but it does feel like it.  A few times a year he has a super long stretch with a couple of call weekends thrown in.  It is certainly not fun and this year it just happened to fall during a time when I was super busy as well (wedding prep/wedding, etc).  So it has been stressful for all involved.  

But, dear readers, we have reached the light at the end of the tunnel.  My boo is off this entire week.  

THE WHOLE WEEK.  

This mama is fired up like whoa.  I have been looking forward to this week for what seems like a year.  Maybe I exaggerate a little...  I have finished most of my Christmas shopping and I have even wrapped!  Our Christmas cards have been sent and all the decor has been finished for weeks.  I wanted to get things done so we could just enjoy this week together as a family.  

We have a few things planned and they are all Christmas related.  Go see Santa, go see the Christmas lights, stay in our Christmas pajamas and watch Christmas movies all day.  Sounds amazing, right?  It's going to be.  We need some family time...just the three of us. 

Blakely did go to school today because it is pajama week and they are having a Christmas party today.  She was sothrilled to wear her slippers.  She wants to wear them to school every day but obviously I don't let her.  They are about 3 sizes too small.  Today though, she got her wish and she was one happy little girl!  

Hope everyone has a great week!  I am off to buy new slippers for my girl!
