Getting Ready for Christmas

Sam and I finished the shopping yesterday and everything is wrapped and under the tree awaiting Christmas morning. Now I just have to get the kids to decide on what they want for Christmas dinner. There is a difference of opinion at the moment between ham and turkey.

The boys finish school on Thursday and on Friday we'll all go down to the VNU offices in Santa Monica for the annual family holiday potluck. Sam volunteered us to bring stuffed Korean dumplings so Thursday night we'll all pitch in and make a big batch. We still need to make our gingerbread house and decorate it, one of my favorite holiday traditions, but slowly but surely everything is coming together.
