This week was another whirlwind! Yesterday we had our family Christmas and my husband and I woke up to our three year old yelling, “Mama! Pirates! Look! Mama! Presents! Hurry!” 😆 Needless to say we had a wonderful day! Liam played all day long and crashed about 8:30 last night (shhh…my husband did too 😉 )
I have the world’s best husband by the way 😀 I have been dying to read The Mortal Instruments for a few years now but I’ve put it off for several reasons. Now I have no excuse. You see my sweet husband surprised me for Christmas by reading my blog, in particular my Top Ten Tuesday posts, to find the perfect present. And he did 😀 He gave me the complete TMI set in hardback!!! It’s gorgeous and I can’t wait to delve into it.
What do you want for Christmas this year? Any special plans? As you read this we are in a car on our way to spend Christmas with the rest of our family. Hope you have a blessed week and happy reading!

I can tell this Christmas will stay with you. How awesome your husband did that to find you the perfect gift!
I’m spending the holiday at home with my son. Caught a nasty cold and don’t want to spread it around. Plus I’m really dragging from it and still have to work right up to Christmas Day. It will be nice to stay in my pajamas, nice and cozy.
Have a joyous Christmas!
