college girl loves candles and oils and things like that, there are always things burning around here, we have to check each room before we go to bed or leave the house.. the deal is , joe buys the tree, girls decorate, and I take it all down and put it in boxes, son packs it all downstairs for me.. Christmas morning .. son comes over very early and makes coffee, turns on the tree lights, gets me up, and helps me get things ready, then he texts the girls ( who spend the night here) to get up, then they go and get their daddy up and away we go.. now these kids are all grown, but on christmas morning, they are all 5, 9, and 12 LOL .. ( only because they do not have spouses and babies) Karin, my 40 yr old single mom, comes over with my 18 yr old GS a little later, and then over to Mike and Paulas. It is fun, and it works for us. We miss Pauline, and we will miss Duke Dog this year, but we will laff at the pictures from Christmas past of him in the middle of it all with his old man red sweater and a bow on his head.
