On the mend...

It's been quite a week so far...this tummy bug sure hit us hard! Toby stayed home from work Tuesday, went in till 8 on Wednesday and stayed home again today. The cramps he gets are so debilitating....

The children are all better. Natalie had it the worst, and the longest. She's her cheerful self again today. So is Mary. What music to my Mama ears!!

My Mom has a touch of it now..she's been in bed....sure praying she is over it quickly!

I have been getting quite alot of work done around the house...mostly kitchen stuff. We have milk to use, so I have made ice cream for the freezer, butter, macaroni and cheese (6 pans!) for the freezer, baked ziti...and a cheesecake, my very first, made with my homemade cream cheese! I have it in the freezer now. I plan to cut it into pieces and dip them in chocolate! Yummo..as Rachael Ray would say!

I should be writing our Christmas letter now...but am blogging...could it be that I am still putting it off? Nah....just need to be inspired to write it....

Did anyone watch the Biggest Loser last night? Oh my!! What a finale!! So much weight lost...they looked SO incredibly good! I wouldn't have the nerve to get on national tv and show my weight to the world...so I applaud them for doing so. But, what a trade off...they look fantastic now!!

Okay...I guess I should move onto other computer thingies....much to do, not much time to do them all...

Have a blessed evening!!
