So Christmas was a lot of fun! We had Christopher's family over and I made most of the Christmas dinner! I made homemade rolls, a cranberry Jell-O salad, mashed potatoes, the ham, and homemade pumpkin pies and a homemade apple pie. Chris' sister brought over a delicious green bean casserole and his brother brought a yummy salad. Dinner was sooooooo good!
We had a great time opening presents afterward and all of the boys (Chris and his brother included) had a nerf gun war in our great room downstairs. Then the adults got together and played a trivia game which was really fun!
New Years was quiet...Chris had to wake me up at midnight to wish me a happy new year...I fell alseep! :)
Then...it happened. I found out on New Years day that I am allergic to mango skins. Mangoes apparantly have the same toxins that are found in poison ivy and poison sumac...so now I have a beautiful poison ivy-looking rash all around my mouth and it is spreading up my left cheek and down my neck. It itches sooooo bad! I finally broke down and called my dad tonight to get a steroid presciption so that I can get rid of this awful rash I have had for 6 days. Chris has been really great about this, he hasn't teased me too much!
Chris is still trying to put together a business deal with a relator in the area. It is looking like this could be a great full time job for him, but we do not know anything for sure yet. I am still teaching piano lessons and teaching music to the preschoolers. They are sooo cute and they say the funniest things sometimes! I wish I would have written the things they say down every day, but I haven't....oh well...they still make me smile! Lacey is Lacey...she like chewing on her chew toys, playing fetch and she really loves going for runs/walks around the neighborhood. She definitely knows where we keep her leash and she goes to it every morning and gives me this look like "Can we go? Can we go?" And if we get to go...SHE IS ESTATIC! If not, then she pouts all day.
