We are still here.

Life gets so busy this time of year.  I have so many things I want to do but just don't have time to get to them.  So I have to choose what I would like to do most and be grateful for it.  We got a real Christmas tree on Tuesday but didn't get around to decorating it until Friday. 

We planed a small play date this week. The kids wanted to host a ginger bread house making party.  Lilly designed the invitations. She was so proud.  I 'm sad that I deleted the file. You will have to take my word for it that they were cute. They all had a good time and ate too much candy. (Mandy, we are still planing on having you over for candy houses. The kids wanted to do it twice)

I found a really cool site yesterday http://www.portablenorthpole.tv/home.  You can make a message from Santa to your child that is pretty believable in my opinion.  I made one for Max saying that he was on the naughty list. He bought it and now is trying really hard to get on the nice list again. Let's hope this improves his behavior.  Lilly keeps asking me if she got an email form Santa yet.  I will have to make her one tonight.  Although she is pretty sure that she is on the nice list and maybe that is why I didn't get an email for her. 

One more thing the weather her has been cold.  We have to bundle up every morning.  It's fun to be cold for awhile but I'm really for some perfect days of 70 degrees.
