Happy New Year

Just wanted to say Happy New Year.

If you are out and about, watch the roads. The warm weather was nice this afternoon, but it has all frozen and turned to ice. Watch those steps, roads, and sidewalks.

Stay safe and wishing you all the best.

Today

Husband, son (Justin), and I played Wii today. It was fun. Husband and I need some time for ourselves though. I can't remember the last time we had the cash and the time both together where we could go out on a date. Ah Date Night. The memories. It is a needed thing for us and soon.

Hubby is putting oldest to bed. I am going to take youngest soon. If I can stay awake, maybe hubby and I can have some cuddle time later. Usually, one of us falls asleep.

Gonna finish Ghost Hunters and go to bed. Nighty night.

Spongebob and My Family

Okay, so I think Spongebob is funny sometimes. However, my family loves this show. They even quote Spongebob when they feel the time is right. I guess I just don't understand or maybe it is because "I'm a girl." Whatever it is I can't believe that this is the show of choice for my children.

Hunting with Max

Hubby and Max are out hunting rabbits. Carry, Justin, and I went to see Dave; then, we went to the store. Carry and I looked at scrapbooking items. Nothing exciting to see there. We need to leave Coldwater and go to a bigger town to find better stuff. Oh well, we are all broke anyway.

Snow, snow, and more snow

Kalamazoo, Michigan was hit today by the snow. Unfortunately, it was too cold to play outside in it. My son, Justin, wants to rebuild our snowman. He melted in the rain on Christmas day. However, we played inside today. Daddy helped him build a race car and paint it. Mom helped with the stickers. Well, I just sat and watched that is about as much help as he would allow me.
Here is a picture of the car:

He Listened...

Christmas morning we woke our 4 yr old up to open presents at 7:30 am. Grandma was here and we were all excited. Apparently, we were more excited than he was. He would not wake up. We put presents on his lap, told him Santa came, and even sang Christmas carols. Nothing worked. Finally at around 8 am, I played his Mickey Christmas toy, which plays Deck The Halls (his favorite), and he woke up.

The first present he grabbed was the one he specifically asked Santa for. When he opened it, he looked at grandma, mom, and dad and exclaimed, "he listened. Santa really listened to me!" We heard this for the rest of the morning. It was the cutest thing I have ever heard. My son is great.

Perpetual Calendar

Yeah! I finally found a blank perpetual calendar. I ordered it from Etsy.com ( http://www.etsy.com ); there was only one left, but if you are looking, keep checking the site. That is what I had to do. Now, if it comes on time, I can make one for my mom for the holiday. I will post pictures as soon as I have them.

cricut files

Mom wants cut files for some picture mats for Christmas. I plan to do, but how do you not let the person know when you don't know the size of the frames or the pictures? I guess I will be asking her. Not much of a surprise gift, but she'll like them anyway.
