Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve
my Dad comes to my our home
we eat BBQ
exchange gifts
bowl on the Wii
laugh and have a swell time

then

we take care of last minute Christmas errands
and find some dinner

then

we open our gifts to each other.....just the 3 of us

then

Chloe and I bake cookies for Santa and
place them on a dish with milk and a napkin

then

Chloe and G sprinkle reindeer food on the lawn

then

To bed with the little one

then

before the real fun begins HO HO HO

I watch A Christmas Story
its the best
with ALL that goes on Christmas Eve day
I always look forward to sitting down with Ralphie.
I hope you all have a happy happy Christmas !!!!!

Let's rewindThe resident cat at my grandfather's shop.....we re-named her
she is now Moon Pie seeing as she took up
permanent residence in this empty Moon Pie box
I don't like cats....but.....cute !!

Crazy hair day at preschool
Little darling

we made bird seed hearts

for valentine's for our friends the birds.

Chloe has a Summer birthday

so at preschool they celebrated her

special me day.....never without a Cheeto

scenes....oh the scenes

If Chloe was naughty before going to bed

she would create, what she called scenes for me at the top of the stairs

so I would see them when I came to bed

she is still making them

and now that she is writing

she makes me small messages on

her little dry erase board.....hahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa......silly and cute !!

more to come
