Well, it's over. The hours of planning, shopping, wrapping, cleaning, cooking. But boy, was it fun!
Now, I have to go dust off that eliptical.

Oh, I love this picture! Your eldest looks a lot like you. Birthday girl looks happy. They are all beautiful kids, Susanne. But you just had to make that elliptical remark, didn't you?!!

Laura said...

LOL, it's crazy isn't it! Looks like your kids are exhausted after all their hard work...he he.

Faith said...

Love the pic...where's your floor??! LOL
It's funny but right before I sat down here in our basement "office" to read blogs, email, etc. I said to my oldest: "I really should do my power walking and burn off that fudge I ate for the last 3 days!" of course now it is starting to sleet so....I will probably put off working out until it stops....

Ugh...eliptical.

Glad you had such a great Christmas!

Thanks for being such a faithful reader and commenter this past year. I know I don't say it enough ever, but I do appreciate you! You've lifted my spirits more than once by a well-placed word.

God bless you this coming year!

Glad you had lots of Christmas fun with your family - but Susanne, you really should celebrate the 12 days of Christmas - then you don't have to start working out until Jan 6th!

Looks like our house! I tried to get my husband to take a picture but he didn't...suffice it to say, our floor was hidden as well!

Rochelle said...

I love the "after" shots!! Fun stuf!

Tammy said...

Looks a lot like our floor STILL does! LOL
By the way, a belated Happy Birthday to your sweet girl, Susanne!

You know, I think just dusting off a work out machine should count as a work out at this point, don't you? ;)

Sandra said...

That looked like my living room covered in wrapping paper LOL

I'm with you, I don't even want to get on the scale though for fear I may be traumatized.

Happy New Year :)
