Whew! (and that's just day one . . . )

Merry Christmas to you from the gang at Catholic All Year.

It's been quite a day. (And we haven't even had dinner or the Nativity Play yet!)



Yesterday we chopped down our tree and decorated it, despite the (sunny and 85) weather . . .




This morning we awoke early to see what Santa had brought and open the gifts under the tree.




And, you guys! This blog made out very well, I have to say. I got an awesome new lens for my camera, which will allow me to take pictures of things that are farther than 5 feet away from me (also good for kids' sporting events), AND a blog makeover (so stay tuned for that!) and . . . wait for it . . .

THIS zombie-survival bracelet!

get your own here!

And then off to Mass . . .


I have no idea why it's snowing in this picture. Apparently either Picasa or Blogger thought it would be a good idea. I'm going to go with it. Especially since I'm sleeveless and flip-flopped right now.

Merry Christmas to you all! (And if YOU got anything blog and/or zombie related for Christmas, I want to know about it.)
