Life sure gets crazy around the holidays,but this is what we have been up to.



Our tree has been decorated since Thanksgiving and the kids love it. Their little eyes light up at all the bulbs and sparkle,and it makes the holidays that much more fun.
In our first year of marriage,we bought as a cheapy tree at Walmart,$25, it is a 6 footer,so on the small side. I thought maybe later we would get a bigger tree, well later has come and gone and I still have a 6 footer. I have made do though and have made a box with a shelf in the middle of the box, for the tree to stand on. It raises the tree at least a foot and I got to decorate the box, like a present. I love it! I had it made 2 years ago, and this is my first year actually using,because of moving and whatever else.

Last night was the ward party, Rocco threw up there, so we quickly left. He looked so miserable,I feel so bad. On the way home he told me" I throw up on my sweater, in my mouth, and on my sweater, mama."

This is Prelsey the day of her surgry. She did really well. The Dr. put 2 tubes in each ear and then removed her adnoids. Ever since the surgery she has done great. This morning she woke up with green bugers, so I will cross my fingers that all goes well.

I put her little hair in piggytails. I thought it looked so cute with some little blue bows, however we went out to eat and the server asked, what do the boys want for dinner, for real people!,does she look like a boy with hoops in her ears, and when they took her back for surgery, they said oh he'll be just fine. She had pink on a and a kitty on her jammies. Here bows are what give her , her gender I guess. Both times she was mistaken for a boy she didn't have a bow. I can't wait for her hair to grow in.
