Missing Ivan

Ivan left today for a short business trip to Yuma with a good size group of people from work. He gets back on Saturday. I always hate it when he has to travel. I can't ever sleep. Every noise freaks me out. So, it's midnight and I sit posting on my blog!

Today was an exhausting day. I ran the kids with all their stuff for their class parties to school and Emma to Sister Delgado's house. I hurried home to meet Jenny Anchondo, the morning KOLD13 anchor, and Jason, the cameraman to shoot our segment. I had been up until 2 a.m. the night before making cookies for the segment. We were showing how you can make 10 different kinds of cookies with the same basic dough recipe. The taping went well.

I ran to the school to take Spencer's backpack that he had forgotten at home and Devan's lunch box that he left in the van that morning. Then, I went to get Emma.

I spent the majority of the day making cookies and delivering them to neighbors. We still have a lot of cookies to make! The kids had fun singing "We wish you a Merry Christmas" when the neighbors on our street answered their doors. They really liked that.

Well, I hope this finds everyone enjoying this Christmas season! In the busyness of it all, let's not forget the true reason for the season-the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ.

Lots of love,

Stephanie
