OH Christmas Tree

It has been about four years since we have had to put up a tree, so we went and bought a artificial one this year. The girls loved to decorate it, and Micah kept saying ooohhhh!

The classic picture in front of the tree~ Micah wanted nothing to do with it.



Micah and Mackenzie

Mackenzie walks to the beat of a different drummer~ she got dressed for Church and then decided she needed a baseball hat and sunglasses to go with her Church dress. She wore it in the car, but Mommy insisted that it stay in the car for Church.
Micah has an extremely long torso and his pants never fit him because of his short legs no matter how much we roll them up- often he walks right out of his pants.
Trying to do a summersault.

All I want for Christmas is.....

My front tooth! Maddy lost her tooth on Friday and the other front tooth will soon be out too. She cracks us up with her new smile and is quite proud to show everyone her missing tooth.

An Early Christmas present

While I was away for the morning, Ron took the girls shopping and he bought them a 10-in-1 game table that is kid size. It has everything from pool, checkers, bowling, ping-pong, and my favorite Foosball. Mackenzie couldn't quite get the hang of it, and ended up getting hit in the face with the stick.

Funny Things the kids have said......

Madeline is learning Ephesians 6:1-4 for school and she was reciting them for us. Here's how she thought it went......Honour thy Father and Mother which is the worst commandment with promise!

And Mackenzie has a "boyfriend" in school. Now we don't condone this or talk about it, but it is so funny because she is such a tomboy. Now she throws a fit about what she is wearing because she doesn't want the boys to laugh at her, I have also caught her putting on my makeup before school. I guess she will be a prissy tomboy!

Mackenzie plays soccer

Mackenzie and her best friend Trista are on the same team, and for the most part run around holding hands and seeing who can be the fastest runner. Kenzie enjoyed the first game, but was disappointed that she didn't make a goal. She is extremely competitive for such a little thing. But for now I think the water breaks were her favorite part!

Maddy plays soccer

Maddy really enjoyed her first game, much more than we thought she would. She was nervous about all the people watching, but quickly got into the game. She and her friend Shanae are the only girls on the 1st and 2nd grade team.

The Game

After the game the game the girls were very hot, and sweaty!
Yum- snack time after the game!

Maddy's team tied and Mackenzie's team won- though Mackenzie doesn't think they won because she didn't make a goal- she doesn't quite get the "team" sport idea.

Soccer Uniforms

Today was the first soccer game. Madeline is #5 on the Hurricanes, and Mackenzie is #5 on the Tigers.


This and That

Micah has discovered that the cabinets open and make a great place to eat your snack. He also likes to take the plug to the blender and uses it as a telephone.
Friday was no uniform day, so the girls wore there school t-shirts.

Micah learns to feed himself

Micah is very interested in feeding himself, but since I hate the mess I usually don't let him. Yesterday he did a pretty good job of eating his yogurt all by himself.


The finally product -- yum, yum!

The Circus

On Monday a friend and I took our four girls, who are all the same age, and Micah to see the Circus. It was definitely no Ringling Brother's Circus! It was set at a racetrack in a dirt field and everything was behind wire fencing so the pictures did not turn out. Not that I could take many pictures as everyone was so indecently dressed. Most of them had little costumes that left little to the imagination- way to many g-stings for a circus! Anyway the kids had fun, and Micah liked the elephants alot.
