Yeah, yeah....I know it is a month late! I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. As usual, we ate our body weight in junk and now that junk is in my trunk (if you know what I mean)! We had a very calm Christmas this year, everyone was very excited for the new toys and treasures they would get from Santa. Averi is especially funny because this is what/who she actually thought Santa was/is:
This cracks me up so much!!! Poor little door hanger Santa has been drug around so much that his beard is all but a few strands now. He looks more like homeless drunk Santa now! Luckily a blind kid won't judge him that way. I laugh at the fact that she thinks this little guy brings her toys. I wonder what that picture looks like in Averi's brain?! Funny! I think we set her straight when we went to a braille club party and she got to sit on the "real" Santa's lap. That was such a treat.
Thankfully Christian and Taylor still "believe" in Santa. I don't know what I will do when I can't use the "spy elves" as motivation for them to be nice to each other. I love the things we get to tell our kids and call it tradition!
This year is starting out pretty good. James just got a very busy E.Q. President church calling, so we will be pretty much even more crazy than usual. I am still an under cover member who is callingless...he he! The kids are lovin' school and so am I! I love my free mommy time, but now it is time to actually be productive, so I have to work my "trunk" off by using our new WII Fit thingy. It is way more fun than other form of exercise I guess.
Oh yeah, here is something random: Our dogs literally ate our cell phone. They are tiny wiener dogs, so you wouldn't suppose they could do so much damage but they did! James wanted me to post this. Here is exhibit A:
Oh yeah, and here are some random pictures that I love.
Blind kid at bat! Averi was a witch for Halloween, isn't she so cute?!!

My new diet plan: tie food to strings and don't use hands...do you think it will work? Just kidding!!!
