Merry Christmas!

As usual, we are off to my Mom's for a few days, but wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! It's been rather hectic around here lately, but yesterday Katey and I spent about 6 hours making about 5 different kinds of cookies. Then, after Greg read Katey several books and she was in bed, and had heard Santa's bells (thanks "Santa!"), the wrapping began. It's funny how you wrap and wrap and it's ripped apart in a matter of minutes. We're having a great day so far.......hope you are too! Merry Christmas!!

Christmas Program, Party and the Virgin Mary

We had the annual Christmas program at Katey's school last night, followed by the class party this morning. Katey was ALL excited that her program was at night, since she's one of the "big" kids now! Her part (besides singing.......and boy, did she sing this time around!), was to be one of the "Frosty" kids. We had them bundled up in hats, mittens, etc. and it was 80 outside! So much for a chilly Christmas.......not this year. We'll find a way to muddle through. If you were wondering, the first picture is Katey dressed as the Virgin Mary........pajama bottoms and a blanket double as the head wear and her kitten as Jesus, I guess. :)

Ho Ho Ho!

Stopped by the mall after school this afternoon to pick up a few things, and there he was! Had I given it a bit of thought ahead of time, I would have brought something a little more festive for Katey to wear. Don't get me wrong, we LOVE our Seminole attire......especially when the mall was swarming with Virginia Tech and Boston College fans who are in town playing for the ACC Championship game that WE should be in........but, that's a different story! Last year Katey asked Santa for a Princess coloring book, today she told him she wanted the Kung Fu Panda movie (done!) and some tape and envelopes so she doesn't have to use mine! :) Such an EASY child to buy for. As was the case last year, I have gotten her a few more goodies! Ho Ho Ho.......have a great weekend and GOOOOOOOOOOOO Bama! (yes, I am bitter!)

4/4

Okay Lesa, here is my 4th picture from my 4th file.......I think I got that right. Remember the spiky hair? .....the outfit? Didn't you get a similar one in China? I can't believe it was 4 years ago.....seems so long ago, yet just like yesterday.
