Slumber Party!


Bro Night usually = Cousin Sleepover! The kids have such a blast! Here is the wake up committee waking Mike the morning after the guys played video games into the wee hours of the morning...We let them sleep in, but the kids were itching to see them mid morning...Upon waking Mike said, "I don't want to go out there do I?" ...He knows the cousins have been hard at work all morning and our Fam Room looks like this... :)

Fort Central...

The kids have so much fun together and A and T really take good care of our little ones...

Story break...notice the little balls of hail on the back deck...they came down on our way home from eating ice cream and they were still there in the am...it is way to cold these days in my opinion! brr!

And an aerial view...Mal's Christmas tree is the last decoration out...we undecorated a little early this yr (4 days after Christmas...we usually do it Jan. 1st) Always so sad! But I'm glad we had it done and could enjoy the rest of the break without it looming over us...We get a good month in, so I'm happy! We let the kids stay up the night we took down the decorations and let them watch one last Christmas movie as they helped us...M was like, "What's happening? Is Christmas over? Why?" She had fun helping us take the ornaments down and looking at them as we put them away...Then we stopped for bedtime and then Mike and I spent the next 2 hrs finishing and cleaning...it was the most enjoyable undecorating yet...might have started a new tradition...

We had our black eyed peas for lunch yesterday...and Carter was a huge fan and tried to lick his bowl when they were all gone...M said, "Mom made us cool beans" which we thought was funny! Think I only really eat them on New Years...but they're good...maybe we will have them more often in 2010! And Carter got his second hair cut in the morning before lunch...he was more aware this time and didn't stay still...they had to work harder to cut it! But we got it done! Aunt Susan is our witness! Thanks for coming along! :)
