I am so sad that December came and went this year and I really didn't ever feel the spirit of the Season. I was so busy at the store and I didn't think I had time to do the things I usually do like 12 days etc. I loved going to California after Christmas with Jim and Amy and Mike and Liana. It was crowded at Disneyland but being in the great weather and enjoying being with the family it was truly wonderful.
I enjoyed Christmas with everyone as well. We did do the traditional Nativity dinner and everyone did their part from Jack being a donkey to Andy and Anna being Joseph and Mary. Christmas eve the LBH crew went to Garden House for dinner and before that we went to see Sherlock Holmes at the movies. It was a different type of Christmas eve but it was so great not to have to prepare dinner etc. after such a hard week at the cafe and shop. Jim and Clorinda and kids came over after and spent the night. Christmas morning was fun and then the rest of the family came for dinner.
After Christmas and Disneyland, we came home for New Years. Laura and Nigel and kids came up on Friday and spent the weekend. We had a great time with traditional fondue and although i am sure i went to bed before midnight, the New Year came in regardless. I am hoping that I can have a great 2012 ... and balance my time to enjoy life and not just work, work,work.
As i write this I guess we really did have a nice December... I know it was different but it was good. I am not so sure i like all of this change in my life. Tradition is important to me but I know that things are changing and I have to make the changes.
So Iwill try to make more of an effort this month to keep up on my blog. I am interested to see how much I forget when I write after a couple of weeks like this.
