A Whirlwind of Activity...and then Not

Saturday was filled with family, food, and fun. We opened presents, ate too much, and listened to the grandkids squeal and laugh as they played throughout the house after gifts were finally all opened. We played cards, caught up on life, and even talked to Caleb and Lia in Germany for a bit. 

The house was abuzz from 9:00am to 9:30pm and we were pooped once everybody headed home. Oddly enough, neither Jim nor I had a good nights sleep afterwards. Yesterday, which is our norm anyway, was spent just chilling in the living room while listening to it rain and freeze some more while watching holiday movies.

Here are a few things I received from "Santa" this year...

ACORN! A whole gallon!

A new kit to work

That's all the quilting things I received. I'm so thankful to have family remember me during the giving season but I I love to see the faces of others that I gift/give special things do. 

Here's the B family rounded up quickly on the couch...

The B's

The A's are supposed to be up today for their Christmas (post influenza A), but after all the rain/freeze yesterday, and today we have snow/high winds, they may not make it up until tomorrow. Mom doesn't really want to venture over here in the weather today. 

I'll probably be trying to work today since I've got a customer quilt that needs to get finished on Bernie. I may also work some more on DW (Produce Section) or piecing some more on AWAT.
