Preparation-wise nothing! We go to my mom's and she INSISTS on doing all the cooking. However I am a little stressed this year b/c I am trying to lose weight, which I am having a hard enough time doing, and I know I will gain about 15 pounds this holiday season starting with T-giving!!
Preparation wise this year: trying to figure out how to fit all my kids in my house so no one is staying somewhere else. ARGH!!! I KNOW we all used to fit in here, but Ben was in a toddler bed in the living room. I guess that is my stress too. LOL
I've always been spoiled. This year I am making green beans and rolls. It's the most I have ever done. Thank you Mom and Jean! I'll sure miss y'all this year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not doing much at all to prepare really, we are going to my sister-in-laws and she said to bring something if I want to. I hate that. That stresses me out. I don't know what she is cooking, therefore I don't know what to bring. I like to be told, "You bring such-and-such." I have been taught it is impolite to go to someone's house without bringing something so, I must figure out what to bring. Ugh, the stress.
I am married to Andy Dietz, a retired pastor. We've been in the ministry for over 49 years. We have four grown children and 12 beautiful grandchildren and 3 adorable great-granddaughters! I write to share what God is teaching me (it's a continual work in progress!) and to open the window to my life and allow you to look in.
