The Baby's Cute............

But the real reason I'm posting this is so you can hear my husband's beautiful voice (Evil laugh by me :)

Someone's yard ornament

Help! I've fallen down and can't get up.

Missed opportunities ie: Didn't have my camera

Two girls eating together at McDonald's only they weren't talking to each other-they were talking on their cell phones. And the point of eating together is????????

College Friends

Met up with some college friends today at Chic-Fil-A. Had to have somewhere for the kids to play:)

Are they allowed to do that?

The other night the restaraunt we usually eat at on Sunday nights was practically empty. The manager that night decided that the kids would like to be pushed around in the rolling high chair. I think they about knocked down the Christmas tree in the process. I'm not sure what
t0 the other customers thought.

Tea Party!

Last night Zach went out with his grandparents, and Brittany was really bored. Finally, she decided we needed to have a tea party. I wasn't really in the mood, but to make her happy, I consented. She and Sierra dressed up in their Princess clothes, hats, and church shoes. Sierra's outfit was quite interesting as you can see in the picture. Brittany made me dress up in church clothes. I tried to stay in my socks instead of wearing church shoes but quickly found out that I did not pass inspection. So back to my room I went to get the appropriate shoe wear. After everyone was properly outfitted, we had sausage, cheese, and crackers, and just a tad of sweet tea.

Family Fun--Sorta

We took Zach and Brittany with us to see a play put on by the city Arts Council and youth of our town called "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever." If you've ever read the book you'll know what I'm talking about. My sister Sarah and one of her best friends Sarah were in the play-which is another story in itself. We let the baby and Sierra stay with Papa and Mema while were out. Zach was very upset that we made him go with us, but in the end he really had a great time. He started feeling better as soon as he got some food in his stomach at Chic-Fil-A, and it only got better from there. After the play we ran to Wal-Greens and ran into one of Zach's friends. As you can see in the video that he was totally enjoying himself by the end of the night.

Kids Are So Cute

My mother-in-law and I teach PeeWee Patch at our church on Wednesday nights. Our latest dilemma has been how to teach the little ones (2 & 3 year olds) who Jesus is, and why we celebrate Christmas. Since Jesus came to save us from our sins, we started out explaining that sin is the bad things we do and giving examples of sin. When the little boy in the above picture was asked if he sins, he said, "No." Then he looked up with that cute little grin that he has in the picture and said, "Oh, yes, yes. I climb up on the counter and get blue chewing gum."

I'm assuming that's without permission. :)

Taped

At our Christmas banquet this last Saturday evening, four ladies raced to see who could make their husband the best snowman in five minutes. My in-laws are in the first part of the video. Notice he gets what could almost be classified as a punch in the stomach, but the funniest part is the other couple. I think she really enjoyed taping her husband's face!



And is that tall guy supposed to be helping his wife by unrolling the toilet paper for her?! That was nice of him wasn't it?

Our Cutie-two months old

Kid number four and we're still proud parents.

Around Town II

I've been trying to remember to take my camera with me when I leave the house. Friday evening, it paid off when we followed a fire truck to a house fire. I know that's not what you're supposed to do, but when you have a 6 year old in the back wanting to go where the fire engine is going, how can you resist! It happened to be a big enough fire to be written about in our local paper. When we got there, I saw flames coming out the front window and coming out of the eaves around back. However, I wasn't quick enough to get a picture of that as Spencer drove past.

Saturday, I forgot to take my camera with me and really regretted it. At the stop light facing us was an old time fire truck with the fire captain sitting up high driving it. He was on his way to the local Christmas parade.
