Last Weekend

I tried to post a blog entry last Friday (Dec. 15th) afternoon, but when I hit the Publish button, I got an error message from Blogger that it couldn't do that, so I lost my entry. I hate when that happens.

Anyway, last weekend we made took a trip up to visit my mother-in-law. Sort of to spend our Christmas time with her as we won't see her over the actual holidays. We also got to eat lunch with one of my sister-in-laws as well. Overall we had a nice visit, but that drive can sure get long (4 hours).

My parents were in London, England all last week. It was business related, but they did get some sight-seeing in though. They said it rained most of the time, but guess that's about normal for over there. They got back last Sunday night safe & sound. :-)

My son has crossing guard duty this week at school. There are two fifth-grade classes at his school and one kid from each class takes a week for duty. They have to put up the flags and help kids get in the school. He got off a little lucky this week as they get this Friday off for the beginning of Christmas break.

Speaking of Christmas break, I'm taking off work for the week between Christmas and New Year's. It's nice to just take some time off and spend it with the kids, playing with the new toys, etc. We're going to take a quick trip to a big city town right after Christmas and go shopping and other things. We made sure the hotel and an indoor pool! :-) Then, over the New Year's weekend, another sister-in-law and her husband that we don't get to see very often as they live in North Carolina will be staying with us for a few days. They're getting ready to move to Indiana (job move), so at least they're getting a little closer to "home."

My son and I are working on our second Lego Star Wars movie as well. Our target date for "release" is Christmas Day so we can show it off to all the cousins, but it's gonna be cut close as we've done a lot more on this one and just getting all the "special effects" in place have been hair-pulling! :-) It's been a lot of hard work, but fun at the same time.

Remember the Reason for the Season!!
Blessings!
