Spirit week

Last week was homecoming so the kids dressed up each day for school.  Thursday was superhero/Disney day,  so of course, we had Elsa and the hulk.

Paper mache

Last week I had art class at school and we made paper mache bowls.  It was fun, the kids liked it, and it wasn't near the mess I thought it might be.

New years, sledding and donuts

For new years eve we had Kerns, Keetons and Kishpaughs over for steaks. It was a nice evening. Kerns left around 10 (baby Stanley needed attention) but everyone else stayed until after midnight.  The kids played and watched movies downstairs.  About a quarter till midnight Truman crawled up with Luke and fell asleep.  It was so sweet.

New years day we went sledding and had donuts at Ray and Pat's house. It was a lot of fun (and tasty. )

33

Another year done. It was a great birthday. A friend bought me coffee in the morning,  another friend took me to lunch, flowers from Travis and the kids,  cake with Helen,  Marge and Maddie,  and a nice evening and home snuggling on the bed watching tv with the family. Not too shabby.

Christmas

Yesterday, we spent Christmas Eve at Mom and Dad's house. We had a great lunch to celebrate Ashley's birthday, then opened Christmas presents later in the afternoon.

Jaide loved the puzzle. She kept screaming in delight when she put the pieces in.

 Then we spent Christmas day at Ray and Pat's house. We had a great steak lunch, presents, and I had a nap on the couch.

Pat got Amelia a doll that looks alot like her complete with some matching outfits and other clothes that Aunt Sandy made for her. Amelia named her Mirabelle Mouse Barnes.
