Baking Buddy

This girl has gotten to be where she wants to help me cook and see what is going on.  It is so cute.  Today I made Chocolate Chip Cookies for FHE and so she helped me.  There wasn't much on this, so I let her lick the beater.  She thought it was pretty good.

School winter concert

The boys had their winter concert on Tuesday.  They did the 1st and 4th grades together, so I only had to go once.  They did a good job. 

I love that they make sweaters this small...I think this is so cute on her.

Senior Center Christmas party

There senior center here in town had a christmas party that was free to the public. We decided to take the kids.  We didn't tell them where we were going, so they were surprised when they got there.  There were lots of LEGO displays that kids had built and entered for a LEGO building contest.  There were LEGOs that kids were able to play with.  Lots of craft things to make, and of course Santa was there.

When we were getting in the car the boys were getting mad because they didn't get to see Santa.  We had asked them earlier and they said they didn't want to.  So we had to go back in so they would get to see Santa.

I just love this outfit.

Proud moment

I was so proud of Malachi when I got a call from the school telling me that he got a wildcat award.  He has really been working hard at school to be respectful of his teachers and to try hard with his reading.  Great job Malachi!

Jocelyn has figured out how to get to the camera on my phone.  I have so many pictures on my phone she has taken.  They all look like this hahah:

Funny

I was downstairs doing some laundry and when I came upstairs and around the corner I saw James wearing my heels!!  It was so funny I had to grab a picture.

Kids

I just thought she was so cute in this dress.

We have started Malachi in counseling with hopes that is will help with his behavior.  As a treat after his first appointment I took him on a date to Baskin Robbins.  This boy loves ice cream.

This girl didn't want to take a nap.  She didn't think she was tired.  I think she was.  What do you think?

The boys love playing with their sister. They find so many things to pull her around with.  I thought this was so cute.

Malachi reading to dad

We got a new pre lit tree.  Malachi kept begging us to put it up so I finally relented.

While these two played video games:

Malachi and I made ornaments
