Happy post Christmas Clean-up!

You might call me scrouge, but it is the day after Christmas and there is not one ornament, decoration or piece on tinsel left up at my house! Yes, it has all been carefully packed and put away until next year! YIPEE! I absolutely love Christmas and all of decorations, but I also LOVE to get my house back to normal! Out with yesterday and on with tomorrow you might say! All of the gifts are neatly put away in their new places and it feels WONDERFUL! The kids are out sledding behind Uncle Brett's ranger so Preston and I decided to get busy cleaning! I thought while I was cleaning up Christmas that I may as well clean up my blog space too! I don't know about you but I've seen all of the bouncing computer Santa's that I can handle for the year. I hope everyone had a good Christmas. Ours was wonderful! I will blog about it later. HAPPY CLEANING!

I am going to get mine down pretty quick, growing up my parents left everything up till new years. I have always taken everthing down the day after too.I'm like you and love to decorate for Christmas, but am ready for it to come down and get back to normal! Oh and nice music! Before I got on your blog I put my reg. music back on and have the same fist 2 songs on mine too...thanks to on stage! HAHA

SCROOGE!!! J/K
That's what I've been trying to do today, but it's not been easy with Layni. Everything I put away she drags out again...she doesn't want the "snowmi's" to go bye, bye!
It is nice to get everything put away and the house back to normal (if that's possible, at my house anyway)haha!!

Good for you! I have been a lazy butt this week and have only put a few things away. Alan wants me to wait until December is over to put up the tree, but that will be here soon enough! Hope you guys enjoy the rest of your Christmas break

I tried so hard to leave it all up, but I couldn't stand it and cleaned it all up too!!!! The only sign left that we had Christmas is my empty bank account!
