It's beginning to look like Christmas at the Coy house. Dean and I kicking and screaming "gave in" and bought a fake Christmas tree this year. I know....I know....totally lame! We both LOVE the real thing but with the price of real trees and how quickly they dry - and not having the convenience of paying the Forest Service $5 for a tag, we decided to pay $100 for a fake one. Anywho, the house is all festive inside and out, the Christmas goodies have been given out (notice Lindy "helping" me in the kitchen), Christmas cards sent, and presents wrapped - all while working full-time and being a mommy too! I am quite impressed in myself, definitely a 360 degree difference from last Christmas. UGH! Anywho....we're all excited for the coming family parties and just being together for the holidays. We certainly count our blessings each and everyday for all that the Lord provides for us. I'm guessing the next update on the blog will be with Christmas party pictures. Thanks for taking a peek! :)
