Holiday Birthdays


As I am waiting for the arrival of my cousin's baby (the baby is due any day now) I wonder what it must be like to have a birthday so close to a holiday. Do you think people who have holiday birthday's don't get as much fan fare (gifts, etc) as people with birthdays at other times of the year? Sorry I couldn't resist putting up a photo of my son!

SNOW DAY BLISS


I know that I always enjoy a snow day. They are unexpected vacation time for me to spend with my family. I am wondering what is everyone's favorite thing about snow days? Plus, do you do anything special in hopes of getting a snow day?

Holidays=Things??

As we get closer to the holiday season I am starting to wonder more and more about what this time of year is about. I have been finding that more and more holidays are about stuff not family, friends, and a joyous spirit. I myself have found it hard to not fall into the "must buy more mode" as I was shopping for Dylan. Do you find that this time of year is more about buying things then the more traditional meanings that go with this time of year?
