Happy New Year!

Tonight we celebrated our New Year with goodies, Wii games, and movies. And remember that guy that wouldn't open his Christmas presents until he was dressed? He was already in his pajamas and went and got dressed before he could celebrate. It was so cute. Appleseed eating goodies.Then when "midnight" hit we went outside with our noise makers and yelled "Happy New Year." Butterball had to go see his favorite Aunt M and tell her family Happy New Year. It was so cute. He adores her.We want to wish you all a Happy New Year and hope that this year we can all try to find the positive in these trying times. And look to the Lord in all we do. We love you all!

Christmas Day

We had a wonderful Christmas. And Santa was very very good to us. Butterbean had opened 4 presents before anyone else could do anything. So she wasn't happy when I made her stop. Butterball then opened two presents that belonged to Butterbean before we noticed. So he was upset when I made him stop.And this is how Appleseed spent most of the time. It sounded so familiar. I wish I could find a picture from to show you. he heModeling our new sweaters. I could not get a picture of all of them together for nothing.And remember that reindeer food? The reindeer left something in return......poop.....complete with specks of glitter from the food. Butterbean was appalled and was positive that it was because she was naughty and it was their way of punishing her. Butterball wanted me to call Santa and talk to him about how his reindeer should not poop in our yard. Thank you so much "reindeer".

Christmas Eve!

Our sweet neighbor made my kids some reindeer food. We loved it. Appleseed got mad that I wouldn't let him eat it. Here they are feeding the deer.Butterball has been sick and so instantly changed his mind that he didn't want to do it. Then after I had thrown his all out for the reindeer decided he did want to. He was not happy that it was gone. Luckily his sister shared a handful. Then Mom made the mistake of making a big deal about it which set us off again. Argh tonsils and diarrhea!We got letters from Santa on the computer so I read them to the kids. Butterball was sooooo excited. His face lit up and it was so cute.Butterbean was so excited tonight she could barely listen to hers without interrupting.Then we checked out where Santa was and watched videos of where he had been. It was so fun and they loved it.Daddy wanted to start a new tradition of letting them open one present on Christmas Eve. They chose a present that one of the other had bought for them.Appleseed of course was so excited to eat the packaging.The same neat family that made the reindeer food gave us this adorable plate and cup. With the yummy cookie mix. Only problem was I lost my head and left the cookie dough out on the counter for 24 hours before realizing that hmmmmm.....it NEEDS TO BE REFRIGERATED. Wish me luck. I have already sampled them. he he. Oops.
