Good Intentions

I really intended for this year to be different.   I wanted to have my fall decorations out by Halloween, the majority of my Christmas shopping done by Thanksgiving, and some holiday baking done by the time we left for Arizona.  Well, as of right now, my house has zero seasonal decorations, I have purchased two measly Christmas gifts, and my baking pans have only been used as toddler distractions:

Oh well, maybe next year! 

But at least I’m packed for our trip to Arizona tomorrow.  I don’t know whether or not I’ll be blogging much during our time away.  I guess it depends on how exhausting it is keeping my twins from grabbing all the toys away from their twin cousins.  There’s sure to be chaos, squeals and laughter – I can’t wait!  I’m especially excited to spend time with my sister-in-law and eldest niece while the four young kids entertain each other (or tackle each other, as the case may be).  I’ll let you know how it goes!
