CookieCrazie's Week in Review
It's actually been TWO weeks since I've done a CCChatter...

Personal Side
Ahhhhh.....Christmas was wonderful. :)
We had a whirlwind weekend.
I worked at the hospital on Saturday morning and then we rushed out of town to visit family in Memphis.
We scurried back quickly EARLY Monday morning so I could get prep work done.
Then visiting extended family for Christmas Eve,
plus having our own little Christmas Eve and Christmas morning traditions here.
And then, suddenly......it was over.
Phew......and I'm so tired. ;)
BUT.....wedding prep kicks into full gear, probably on Friday......so I must rest quickly. heehee
My heart is full.
It is wonderful to reflect on Christmas pasts.....
and then sit in amazement at the memories we just made the last few days.
With our family headed toward a new stage in life.....married children......
I can only wonder how different things will be in the next few years.
So I kept telling my family, I am pondering these things in my heart. :)
Now we face the new year.
Wow......2013.
If I'm never blessed with anything more, I still have much more than I could ever deserve or imagine.
And I'm thankful.
