Merry Christmas!

This week got so busy so fast! All of a sudden it’s Friday and I haven’t posted at all this week. I didn’t have an opportunity to announce it on my blog yet but we wrapped up our fundraising campaign at work last week and we raised $2,113,387 – $113,000 over our goal! So, so exciting! This past week has been busy as we furiously enter all the data from our campaign before going on Christmas break plus I had my work Christmas party, a volunteer event and other things going on to keep me busy in the evenings! I definitely want to try and blog more in 2013 as it’s really gotten away from me this past year and has been something happening off of the side of my plate, which usually means content that isn’t super great or is rushed. As of today I am officially off work until January 2 for a much-needed break! So I’m sure I’ll pop in a time or two next week :)

Anyways, I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! I probably won’t be back with a post until after Christmas so I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL time celebrating with family, friends and loved ones!

I’ll leave you with this photo of Webster I took the other night in front of the Christmas tree since I never did get around to making Christmas cards this year…

Merry Christmas from our family to yours! XO

    I love that picture :) I try to take pictures of Chloe in front of the tree every year but as soon as she sees the camera she gets all up in my face – “Stay” isn’t in her vocabulary. Merry Christmas – I hope you have a fantastic holiday :D

    Great job on the fundraising! I know what you mean about the blogging from the side of your plate…I have been in a bit of that rut lately as well! I think it’s normal for the holidays, or on days (weeks) when work catches up to you!
