Hard to Fit

The girls seem to have as much trouble finding clothes to wear as I do. We managed to find some today at Justice. Yipee! Thanks to Aunt Weeda saying they might have some on clearance. We didn't find any regular denim but did find some sparkly pink pants, black, brown, and cream. 4 pants and $60 dollars later...not too bad. We just might have to go back for more tomorrow so the girls can match.

As for the rest of our day, we went to the gym this morning for a couple of hours and this evening, the girls had basketball practice. It's been a pretty packed day. So, I'm off to bed again. Seems like bedtime is the only chance I get to work on this blog, and by then, I'm BEAT!

Maybe next time

I'm so frustrated! I've been trying to add more pictures to the previous post. It's just not working for me. Urgg! I'm off to bed, maybe some more pictures will be added and can be viewed later this week when the "user" is with it! Good Night to All.

The Day After

I just read my email for the first time since Sat. I usually check it at least once daily. Anyway, I found out that a lady who is part of our Home School co-op died unexpectly from an aneurysm in the brain on Dec. 23. She has a son who is in Jr. High (I think)and another son who is a bit older and was home for the Christmas break. Her husband had gone out of town to visit a friend who was about to have surgery. My heart is so heavy for this family. Please keep them in your prayers.

Well, here we are, Dec. 26, 2007. What a week it's been! On Christmas Eve, we had Michael's family over around noon. We enjoyed a sweet time together~~We don't get together enough! We went out to my parents around noon on Christmas Day. Mom and Dad cooked up a wonderful brisket. Both places this year we had deserts in excess. Just too much to take it all in. I'm considering a different kind of Christmas next year. I think it would be wonderful if we gave more to others who truely don't have their needs met instead of trying to figure out what we could possibly buy for those who have more than they need. God has blessed us so richly.

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! Here's a few of our pictures...
