Yesterday was a bit stressful. We found out that Eric is having to change his work schedule a bit and will be out of town most of time for the next 4 weeks. He will return on weekends though thankfully! This hit me a little hard as I'm still trying to re-settle in our house, get ready for Christmas and all the other stresses of this time of the year. I'm usually always decorated by Thanksgiving weekend however, with us moving, that didn't happen. So now with this news of Eric going away I'm a bit freaking out how everything is going to get done!
Last night I did my best to put all that aside as I had the first night of our annual women's banquet. My good friend Melissa is in charge of coordinating the event. She of course inlisted several of her friends to help her and I was one of them. So off I went to the banquet, which by the way was great and I really had a great time helping behind the scenes!
As I returned home around 11pm, I pulled in the driveway and found that Eric had put the outside decorations up. I thought that was really nice of him to think about that because with him going away I wasn't sure how I was going to do that portion alone. Then I walked in the house only to find the biggest surprise! Eric and the kids decorated the entire house for Christmas minus the tree while I was out! What a great surprise! I think that we will turn this into our new family tradition, I go out some night right after Thanksgiving and come home to a decorated house! :o)
