I am determined to be stress-free this Holiday Season. Last year was hard, and the season seemed to confound all the difficulties. I am going to focus on what is really important--time with family, creating memories, appreciating what we have.
We won't be able to make it up north for Thanksgiving (Dave and I both have to work the day after), and though I was a little disappointed, I can deal. We are planning on having a simple, casual dinner at home. I want to sit around in our PJ's and watch movies and play board games all day. We will make a ham and some pies, nothing too fancy. We will enjoy the time together.
For Christmas, we will be heading to SLC, and I am looking forward to catching up with family and friends, I hope we have time to do and see everything we want. Gifts will be easy, the kids will get stockings and money, other gifts are already taken care of. But, again, I am focusing on the true spirit of the season. I really want to make it to Temple Square, I have not seen the lights for years.
For New Years, we will have a turkey dinner and another quiet evening at home, the kids may go out and do their own thing, but that is cool with me. Dave and I are good at enjoying eachother's company. The kids will have fun either way.
