Yesterday we all overslept, all 6 of us...until 8:00 am!! It was so NICE!! Since the kids were to start school in 5 min, so we just decided to keep them home. Yeah, I know, not the best theory for kids, but sometimes they need a day off too!!!
We decided to take the kids to the Macy's display downtown. The kids loved it, as did mom and dad since there were NO crowds, NO crabby kids, NO crying kids and NO kids complaining saying "I'm tired of waiting" or "I'm hot"!! The display this year is A Day in the Lives of an Elf. It was a good display!
Even though they look crabby, they were in a GREAT mood!!
After the display we took the kids picture with Santa. Marissa was all talk the whole time about how she was going to see Santa and tell him what she wanted. As soon as we got past the curtain, she froze! She wouldn't go near him! lol
She sat on the very edge waiting to get away!The other day we ended up breaking down and buying a kids ATV. A neighbor was selling his, it really came down to 'too good of a deal to pass up'. The kids LOVE it, as do mommy and daddy....yes it can handle our weight.
I do have more posts to make. Our lives are so busy these days, and I'm told it only gets busier the older the kids get!
