whhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are back! many of you sleepy heads who either 1. have normal sleep patterns or 2. live west of me might not have even realized but the Oscraps website was down for a while this morning (afternoon for those of you who live east of me). Just a friendly reminder that the world still does revolve around me and EST, even if Clara is visiting the west coast. At any rate, we are back up and the world is good!

Is everyone ready for the big days ahead?

I actually have get off of the computer in a few, and start getting the house and stuff like that ready for the trip down to my parents this afternoon.

Tomorrow everyone comes up here.

What more do you all have to do? Hopefully not to much.

here's to a happy and joyous celebration. :champagne:

MOrning again Chris!! I managed to get some of my kitchen cleaning down since I could not get on here! I am starting to bake some cookies, cleaning the kitchen table and chairs- wish there was a way to have table and chairs that did not involve horizontal surfaces!! I am going to enjoy today as a day of prep for family time tomorrow- not sure what the three of us will do, but I be there will some scrapping time for me now that I am back to my laptop!
 
Morning all

Last night was our family Christmas dinner so I'm just going to relax, and read and scrap. It was the leftover shrimp and a slice of pecan pie for my breakfast! A good day already!

Tomorrow a holiday dinner/party at a friend's. We're part of the 'family by choice' invitees. That's a gift!

Sending you all peace, calm and joy.
 
Morning girlies!! Today I have a list a mile long...I even have to run out to one more store to get mr Gorgeous's one more gift. But this very minute I'm in my cozy bed reading all of my fave places on my fun iPad! Sometimes we just have to take a moment and enjoy where we are, right???

Merry Christmas everyone!!!
Love you all!!!
 
If you need tags- check out Sally's blog today- great ideas! Sally's MMG must have been very good this year- most of the presents she showed were to him!! I'm working on my cookies- but truly- I seem to have lost my ability to bake cookies- not that I need to very often, but really. I have cooked the sausage for tonights lasagne- once the cookies are done, it is on to fudge and then making french onion soup! mmmmm now I better get back to clearing the table or we will have no place to eat this special meal!
 
Busy day for everyone today including me... off to have our annual lunch with a few cancer surviors, a great time to spend with friends each holiday season! Hope everyone has a great day !! One more sleep!!!! :wave:
 
I was worried when the shop went funny last night - but all is now well so can breathe again!
It's like being cut off from family - NOT a pleasant feeling.

Everything seems to be under control ladies! Well done. I read on my IPad too, Chris - and in bed :)

Sad news tho, my dearest and only brother (83) was admitted to hospital last night (3 am) - I don't think it's too serious but will know more later today.
My SIL insists we're still having Christmas turkey at their place. So....

On the other hand she will have all the family with her for support and love.

Will visit Dave later this afternoon -

Please, could you include him in your prayers

Have a blessed and joyful Christmas everyone

will try to pop in later....
 
Of course I will add your brother and family to my prayers J! Praying for a healthful and family filled Christmas
 
Christmas Day is here! It's my favorite day of the year! Since we celebrate Christmas on the 24th here in Christmas - it's all over now. Today it's all about relaxing - pajamas all day and the fridge is so full of left overs, I won't have to cook for a couple of days.

It was a relaxed day yesterday too. First we (me, DH, DS and sis) went to my mom and dad, and had some coffee. Then we went back home, I finished the last preparations for the dinner, then we ate, and ate, and ate. We dusted off the old 8-bit Nintendo and played some Tetris. After that DS was totally done with family and Christmas, so we let him go back to his real world (internet). Then me and DH watched the first two Harry Potter movies. We intend to ses them all in a row.

So today = left overs + tetris + Harry Potter
AND - I just saw the news here at the O that I had won last weeks Digidare - I'm over the moon :)

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas day, though I doubt many of you will be here today.
 
Merry Christmas, everyone! one Giant Dinner (Christmas Eve) down and one more to go. i'm reee-leeee tired and the day's just starting! i have two rib roasts big as cows to get in the oven and a whole lot of potatoes to peel. everyone's still asleep here except me. at least i didn't wakt up at 4:15 a.m. today. i made it all the way to 5:30!!
 
Oh, Jacqueline, I missed your post before, saw Phylis now, and realized something had happened. I'm so sorry, I hope and pray everything is fine! *hugs*
 
You are in my thoughts Jaqcueline, big Hugs TO YOU......

Merry Christmas everyone, will start the dinner preparations soon. The rest of the kids will be over about 1pm and the craziness that is Christmas will begin for us......
 
Merry Christmas everyone- I woke up at 8- but didn't get to bed till 1am- late church. Everyone else is still sleeping, so I think I will scrap some and have a cuppa or two while I wait for them to see if Santa has been here. Enjoy your days.
 
Sitting here with my cuppa- praying that things are well with your brother Jacqueline. I also looked up to see that I still have my summer photos posted on the border over my cabinets- must have been a busy fall as I never pulled the fall ones out. I keep 4 seasons photos in each frame and rotate them through the year - perhaps while I am off I will get out the snow ones- since we have no snow!
 
Merry Christmas to all!

Jacqueline - Hoping you have good news to share with us...love sent your way.

A nice quiet morning til we go up to Baltimore to a more frantic Christmas party. A short time with all the hullabaloo will be good and enough. Then back home to our latest books!
 
Hugs and good thoughts to all of you, esp to you and your brother Jacqueline.

Just a quick msg from me to say merry Christmas. I juts found out that my IL's are already on their way here- oh, say about 1-2 hours early than expected!!

Oh well, what can you do?:D

Have a great day, and can't wait to see all of your photos of the food, gifts, family and fun!
 
Merry Christmas everyone. Thank you for all your kind thoughts and prayers.
Brother is still in hospital with no diagnosis from drs.
He seems to think he will be home for Christmas dinner? Sister-in-law says she's not canceling mind you daughters do most everything. Tried to talk her out of it but no... She believes Dave will be home and if he isn't then she wants family around her which makes sense I suppose.
I'm a different type personality.. Rather strange to many. If I'm sick or worried I like to be alone.
I hope you all have a blessed day and enjoy your families.
Lotsa Christmas hug
