The days are long, but the years are short

On Sunday, we trimmed the tree at casa de phillips. I would like to say that it was a fairly relaxing, harmonious experience...but it really was not. Excited, bouncing preschoolers and breakable, handmade ornaments really do not mesh well together. Sunday was no exception. Fortunately we completed our task with all ornaments in place and a beautiful tree standing tall.

I am discussing more about our trimming the tree experience over at BurbMom today. Head on over and check out the details for yourself.

This hits home and just cracks me up so much! I want to thank you again (I can't thank you enough) for all the ideas, suggestions, thoughts and support (yes!support) I get from your posts and articles. It seems I apply in my life (or strive to) almost everything you do. It's probably good that you live so far away .... ....

Merry Christmas from the Phillips bunch in Montana!

What a perfect Christmas post! I have to admit that I turned on Disney's Once Upon a Christmas to distract my little ones from "helping" with the tree trimming. They hung a few (unbreakable) ornaments and I did the rest...and the only ornament was broken by me. Go figure.

On another note, what photo editing software do you have? Do you like it? Is it easy to use? I'm looking for one, but I just can't decide!

Hope you are enjoying your Saturday!
