We've been busy enjoying the Christmas season. We have been finishing up last minute shopping, spending lots of time together enjoying a little slow down in the schedule, and doing lots of driving around looking at Christmas lights. One poor family in particular with a Micky Mouse inflatable dressed as Santa is probably very concerned I am plotting some sort of home invasion the way we have been stalking their lawn decorations. John Clay asked me last night what we were going to do when Christmas was over and everyone took their lights down. I'm not real sure but Drew and Anna Kate are sure going to be disappointed and our car rides are going to be quite boring.
We have had several small things that need repairing around our house so Wednesday afternoon Hubert and John Clay set out to fix them. One issue was a leak in our master bathroom sink. Of course, Drew needed to help. He was so funny. He held the flashlight (until he got distracted) and speculated on what he thought was going on. He kept saying, "it's bent" and would stick his little hand under there to see if it was leaking. It was pretty precious!
On Saturday, Aunt Ashley decided Anna Kate needed her toes painted. She was so proud of her "beautiful" toes (she also called them her new toes)! She wanted everyone to know about them. We talked to Mamaw Katherine on the phone Saturday night and she tore off her socks and put her feet on the phone to show her her beautiful toes. And my poor, sweet boy, he wanted beautiful toes too. His daddy drew the line and wouldn't let him have them. Poor baby! And by the way, she is still surprised every time we take her socks off and her toes are still beautiful.
Helping DotDot decorate Santa cookies. Or maybe just eating icing. Either way, it was fun.
Drew needed to get in on the chocolate fun too!
John Clay got his Christmas present early from my Dad. A new shop vac! (You know you are getting old when you ask for cleaning supplies for Christmas. I asked for a vacuum last year.)
And now, the best for last.....
We had a dance party the other night before bed. These kids have some skills!
