Green is Gone!

Finally, that "all green" room is gone! Now we have a delicious mocha chocolate living room! I love it!

I'm Impatient.....

(I borrowed this from my friend's blog...it also describes me so well, I just had to share...)
~W~

I don't know who originally wrote this, so I can't really give the proper credit to the right person, but whoever you are, we could be friends, because you get me - thanks for putting this down into words I can share. (my own commentary added just because!!)
**********************************************************
I'm impatient (oh yes, yes I am)
and a little insecure (especially under my brave outer shell)
I make mistakes (oh so many mistakes, I have stopped trying to count)
I'm out of control (if you knew what really goes through my head sometimes, you might think i was a little crazy)
and sometimes a little hard to handle (especially if you mess with someone I love and care about)

But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you absolutely don't deserve me at my best.
(the last statement is truth, pure truth!)

The School Play...

In the Christmas musical, Sienna was the best Mrs. Santa Clause ever!

It was so fun to watch her perform!

Christmas Village Lights!

He's got the whole world in his hands!

FINALLY CHRISTMAS EVE!!
Gunnar got to sit on Santa's lap!

"Have you been a good boy?"

Then it was Sienna's turn.

"Have you Been a good girl?"

WOO HOO! Christmas Morning finally arrived!!

"Soooooo....Do you like my scarf???"

Cute Girl!

Sweet kids!

Hey! Nice Helmet!

"Here's a present for you mommy!"

What is that hanging upside down on the tree?!?!

"Is that what I think it is?!?!"

A little "Wii Tennis" is always fun!

The aftermath!

In all the excitement, we actually forgot about the beautiful plant Sienna picked out for Nolan. He wanted a plant for his desk at work, and Sienna picked this one out. Because it needed sunlight and water, we couldn't wrap it. So we put it on top of the fridge, and then forgot it was there until late in the evening Christmas night. Oops!
Oh well...better late than never, right?
