Christmas Rambles

Jeremy gave me one of my Christmas gifts early (last week) so that I would have it for the Christmas festivities.  He got me a new camera!! YAY!  Except that I think I hate it.  I mean it is the kind I want and it is PURPLE which is awesome but....I can't get the darn thing to work right!!! AGH!  I guess I need to just mess around with it.  I really do appreciate it though and it certainly is better than what I had before. 
I have all the kids home today and they are climbing the walls!  They are so excited for Christmas to come!  I remember feeling especially crazy around Christmas time as a kid.  I'm trying to give them the benefit of the doubt but the headache I woke up with this morning is only getting worse!  The good thing is that starting this evening my hubby will be home with me and the kids through Tuesday!!!!  woot!!  I'm especially excited for Christmas Eve at home.  I never thought as a child that I would ever want to be Santa.  But, it is so much better!!!  It's a special time for Jeremy and I to reflect on our family and our 6 beautiful children and the life we created together.  I love getting everything ready for the morning and the great spirit that is in our home!  I don't know what I would do without Jeremy here to help with it all!  It is a big undertaking, lol! 
I'm torn today between doing projects with the kids and cleaning the house.  Let me tell ya something....these kids can mess a house up in about a minute flat.  No joke.  I think I will go with projects though.....memories are what it is all about!  Tomorrow night I have some special stuff planned!  I hope they can contain themselves long enough to do it!
