Merry and Bright!

The first day of December marked our first Christmas party of the season! Our Ladies Bible Study group (plus a few friends) met at Shannon's house and had a fun night of fellowship, food, and a good old game of Dirty Santa!  There are always a few items that are most wanted.  This night is was a set of Pioneer Woman items.  Personally, I am not a huge PW fan.  Some of the things are cute, but I just don't have room for all of that junk.  Still working on that minimalist mentality, even though you probably wouldn't guess it by looking at my kids' rooms.  There was also a blanket that was a most wanted item...and my niece Ellie Kate ended up with it.  Our pastor's wife did a devotion and we all drew names of a sister to pray for throughout the year.  Carl, Trey, my dad, Noah, and Eli went bowling. Carl took some pictures and it looked like they had a lot of fun.

On Monday Carl had to go have two wisdom teeth pulled.  Bless him, he was in pain all night Sunday night and neither of us got much sleep.  I am thankful that we have a good dentist (he is also the kids orthodontist) who pulls them instead of sending you to an oral surgeon. He got them pulled but is extremely sore.  We ended up going to the Christmas Parade that night.  We sat in the car and watched the whole thing. Carlie helped her boss Carol with her little girl's hair for the parade, so she stayed down with her and watched (after she went to eat with her friend-boy).

Makena and Trey. They only got out of the car to buy cotton candy!

All festive in our red and green!

Much Love,

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
