Christmas Parade

waiting in the car

Ready to watch!

Santa's float.


 
Tonight we took the kids to the Christmas Parade.  Even though we had two ball games at school, and a birthday party to attend tonight we decided it was just time to spend time out with just our family. I love spending time with our school friends, but sometimes I just need some time away.  I guess I'm just like the kids, ready for Christmas Break!!   We went to eat, then to the parade.  We saw all the normal stuff: police cars, Christmas floats, the firetruck, and Santa.  Trey was very disappointed because there were no tractors...not even one!  Some boys in the FFA were driving those racing lawn mowers and he really liked that, but he couldn't understand why there were no tractors.  They all got lots of candy, which is why Carlie is carrying a bad in the above picture.  After the parade we went to Wal-Mart!!  I'm really not excited about that.  They showed us all the toys they wanted, which we have already gotten most of it and it looks like we did a pretty good job :)  Carl and I didn't finish our shopping yesterday, but I only have a few things now.  I've wrapped a lot, but I've still got a lot more and there is hardly ANY room left under our tree!
This is an off weekend for us, so we are going to try and enjoy our time at home doing nothing :)

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
