Merry Christmas Eve everyone!

                                         
                                     Poinsatte Family- Fall 2005

I am so happy that I get to spend the next three days with family, friends and of course all of my furry menagerie. Truly blessed for all of the gifts in my life. Especially the most important of all-Jesus Christ!  We are going to spend the day today reflecting on our many blessings! We'll spend time in prayer and reflection on all of our blessings over this past year and hopeful for future blessings in the coming year! We'll also watch Christmas movies, baking (of course!), making our annual Nickers n' Neighs homemade horse treats for the horses and Almonzo, Christmas Eve mass and then making our annual Christmas Eve dinner (palachinka-"crepes"). Blessed to have such a large, loving family to celebrate the holidays with!

bad....bad blogger!

When I started this blog, I intended it to be a sort of online journal, diary that I could chronicle my life with my family, friends and business adventures.  But as usual, life got in the way and I just didn't devote the time to updating it as I had originally intended.  I'm going to give it another go and really try to devote a few minutes each day to sit down and blog about what's going on in this crazy life that I call mine.


Today I woke up to a winter wonderland outside.  Snow as far as the eye can see.  AND COLD!

 
Many schools canceled for the day.  But since we homeschool, I decided to let the kids sleep in and we will start school after lunch.

Then Anthony has his 4 hour gymnastics practice and I coach my prep op gymnasts tonight.  We'll also have our team Christmas party tonight.  I made each of the girls a pretty snowflake soap scented with Sugar Plum Fairy fragrance oil. 

 I hope they like it!  I will sure miss seeing them for the 2 weeks that the gym is off on holiday break!
