Silly Reindeers Celebrating Christmas -- Wordless Wednesday

Eljah, mid-craft, notices his hand looks like a reindeer.

Desiree, mid-meal, notices her fries and meatball make her look like a reindeer.

Christmas Eve -- opening pajamas. 

 Desiree and her new cd player.  She loves listening to Adventures in Odyssey or music at night.

Elijah is ecstatic about his Toy Story lego city and can't wait for Desiree to get the box opened for him.

The Gingerbread House pre-decorating and pre-gravity.

The Cow, Mary and Baby Button Baby Jesus -- Wordless Wednesday

Elijah (4) felt "Joy to the World" wasn't being sung joyfully enough and so he leaned in towards the mic and sang "Let every heart prepare him ROOM" ... and then they moved the mic away from him.  Sufficient joyfulness had been reached.

Desiree (7) did great as Mary.  She had been worried about memorizing lines, but I told her all she had to do was look lovingly at the baby.

And then ... her comedic timing alarm "rang".  At the end of the pageant, Desiree stood to bow and made sure that Baby Button Baby Jesus took a few bows too.

Wishing for Cake -- Wordless Wednesday

-at our school's fall fair

My kiddos were so expectant and hopeful before the start of the cake walk.  Unfortunately we did not win the cake and a valuable lesson about gambling was learned.  We went on to play other games with guaranteed prizes.  lol...
