Would someone please tell me why you clean the house BEFORE your family and guest's arrive.????
When you know between the gift exchange,The booze and the food there is gonna be one whopping big mess to clean up after!!!.
I mopped my kitchen floor and there still is a stickey spot i'm gonna have to go back over.

HA! HA! But my little four year old niece and her 3 year old sister didnt bring down the christmas tree this year like they did last year pulling the candy canes off.Mr Howler bolted that tree in. LOL! But they happile stripped it completely bare of candy canes as far up as their little arms could reach.

I do. I really love this time of year! I do. I really hate this time of year.
LMAO!!!
All in all I'm glad its over and Mr Howler and I can rest and rejuvenate
