The Carlton Chronicles: Tis the Season

Tis the season for warm beverages, cute scarves, and a continuous to do list. I sure do love this time of year. I can't believe November has passed with only one post--but November flew and it was Thanksgiving! Time to travel with family and begin getting ready for one of the biggiest holidays of the year. Although at times it has seemed I don't have time to think about what comes next, I continue to still enjoy the decorations, family time, and giving to the ones I love the most. Since Thanksgiving in North Carolina with family, my life hasn't slowed down even though my body wants to. From shopping to Christmas parties--it always seems to be something.

The Carlton's have lead an exciting December and have enjoyed getting ready for the holidays. Christmas decorating, shopping, and weekend day vacations have kept us exhausted. We have decided to enjoy this week of relaxing and well..doing NOTHING. (Besides a little online shopping, of course!)

School continues to keep me on my toes. Twenty-two kindergartens always have something in mind for me. I can't believe the second nine weeks is half way over and we're already sending out progress reports. I continue to lose track of time. As for Craig, he is still out of work with his wrist and at times wants to go crazy sitting at home. He heads back to the doctor on the 22nd of December so let's keep our fingers crossed he'll be released for work again!

Well, it's off to watch a few ABC Family Christmas movies and enjoy myself a cup of hot choocolate.
I will leave you with a few photos of the crazy life we live.
