12th Day of Christmas!

I know, the pic is sideways again. It's not me...the blog does it for some reason.

My 12Th day of Christmas present was the best ever!!!! Shell surprised me and had the first volume of my blog printed in a book! I couldn't believe it when I opened it. ...to see my blog in a book!!! It was just the neatest thing. I almost cried. She said she is going to print the " whole blog" as my presents for the next 25 years...lol. It will probably take that long to get it all done. She said not only is she doing it for me but she is really doing it for my grandchildren so they will have a set of books on how Oona and Papa lived their dream in their retirement years. Plus, it will all be written by their Grandmother so they will see it through my eyes. I can't wait for my Mother's Day, Birthday and Christmas presents for the rest of my life.

We laughed because Shell said she looked forward to me writing on the blog every week and now she told me to slow down, so she won't have so much to have printed. I know she was just joking with me but now, I really stop and think about what I want to write on here. ..lol.

Not only did I get the blog in a book, but Ryan, Nicole and the girls had a really nice book of pictures of their family printed as one of my presents. It was a " Picture Christmas"!
