It's a bird

McKenzie looks a little like she is doing karate or something. These jammies are finally in the wash! She wore them EVERY SINGLE NIGHT for a week and a half! I finally remembered to grab them when she went to school and wash them.

OUCH!

This is the end of the balloon they were kicking. Brian would hold it up and they would try to kick it. It looks like it would really, really hurt! Only Alexandra and McKenzie were doing it. Alyssa said no way! So did I! :)
Oh to be that flexable again!

December

Papa came down to exchange Christmas gifts and he got to play with the girls for a little while. They kicked a HUGE balloon that Alexandra had in her magic kit. They got wore out! Lots of fun and they slept well! :)

Christmas is coming...

Are you ready? Christmas Eve is one week from TODAY!! That means Christmas Day is one week from tomorrow! 8 days! One week and one day! I can't figure out the hours or minutes...I will ask Alexandra when she gets home! :)

I have my home made items left. I think the girls and I will have a Santa's workshop area in our house next week! Set it up and create, create, create!

Tonight we are going to bake and finish homework. I work tomorrow and Saturday.

Have a restful, relaxing, peaceful Thursday!
*Remember: If you don't get it done, you are the only one that will know! :)

School is on time...

It feels like a heat wave out there at 45 degrees! Last night when we left for AWANA, it was 33 degrees, when we drove home a couple hours later, it was 45! Almost all of our snow is gone. We still have some in the yard, but most of it is all gone....just a memory :)

My girls are a little tired because they actually have to get up and get ready for shcool on time! Hopefully my day will go a little better now that we are back to a regular routine. Even if it is only for today and tomorrow! I will take what I can get!

Here is another picture from Disneyland. I really have to order prints so the girls and I can make our Disneyland Scrapbook. That is going to be our main Christmas gift, if I get my tushie in gear and order the prints! :) I have my 40% off for Michael's so I can get the scrapbook. I happen to have lots of paper :) So all I need is to get the prints made. Then we are all going to work on the Scrapbook together. We can each make pages of our favorite memories there. Together time and a gift! :)

The natives are getting restless.....I have to go get the duct tape :)

Have a great Wednesday!

Again!!

Two hours late....again! You would think I would get so much done with having school two hours late. Not so....I think it works the other way. I still have my girls at home, plus all the daycare kids, and it seems the morning just goes so slow. Then before I know it, I have to take kids to school, fix lunch (McKenzie has lunch 20 min after school starts!) for the daycare kids, take kids to preschool, naptime (my favorite!), then pick up and my day is almost over!

I hope the rain comes pretty quickly to wash this snow away. I also hope it stays warm and does not freeze. The freezing rain we had last night was not fun! I was able to drive ok. I didn't slip and slide tooo much, but it was NOT fun to drive in it. I did have lots of fun shopping though! I was able to get most of my list checked off. I just have stocking stuffers and Santa to finish up. And then all of the homemade stuff. Since nobody knows about the homemade stuff, they won't know if I got it done or not. They may be getting gift certificates for their homemade item in January!

Have a great Tuesday!

Can you tell what McKenzie's favorite animal is?

Did you guess elephant?
She bought this outfit at the Rainforest Cafe in Downtown Disney. I bought her the little elephant in her hand. This is Tuki the elephant. She loves this outfit and she LOVES elephants! She is always on the lookout for elephants. Elephant books, toys, stuffed animals (she would get a real one if I let her!), clothes, and anything else she can find.
She is just too cute!
