Santa, Spaghetti, and A Cup Castle



This morning we got up and got ready to go see Santa. The Santa at Brookwood is my favorite, he takes so much time with the kids and really makes them light up. The boys were so excited and we even brought Jake, Owen, and Aubie along for the ride. I always buy their picture and a snow globe, I love my little collection. I also always take my own pictures, this year however I left my camera at home. I had my small one with me, but it just is not the same. Maybe we will make it back, I doubt it but maybe.



While we were at the mall we had lunch. The boys love food courts so that was a great treat for them. John Michael chose Chick-Fil-A and Danny chose Charlie's subs.



We came home and I made spaghetti. It was the first time to make it on the new stove and I am definitely patting my own back. It was yummy. I also made Jim-N-Nicks' cheese biscuits. While they were not quite as good as they would have been from Jim N Nick's they were a close second. Chris came over for dinner, a little thank you for his help installing the stove Saturday.



We have almost gotten the kitchen and dining room back in working order which is great.


The boys were able to open a Christmas gift tonight. It was from Aunt E. They both got watches and were super excited.




After dinner John Michael and Danny, and then Brandon helped to finish it up, made a HUGE cup castle. It was quite funny, but definitely something that they love to do. Maybe Red Solo Cups are our friends for years before we even know how great they can be! Maybe Santa should bring them each a pack of them. I wonder if it is too late to add them to the list.



Well, I am off to bed, I almost made it before 12, but not so much. Almost though. I will try again. There always seems to be so much happening. Everyone stay weather aware as the weather looks kind of nasty for tomorrow. Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
