a day in review...

we had a great christmas here

and hope everyone else did as well!

here are a few highlights!

as mentioned earlier

the kiddos opened new jammies on the eve

here they are in their tired glory!

and here is a cute pic of daddy helping them

spread the reindeer food

onto the big morning

the kids anxiously awaiting to see what santa left!

as you can see, they got pretty lucky!

after playng for a good long time

we ventured out to the movies

to see bedtime stories

very cute and funny

and of course ate popcorn and candy,

too much of it

we headed home and feasted on dinner

and played games

then tucked the kids into their sleeping bags

for a good night's sleep

much needed!

not to be outdone by his sister's culinary creation of toast

earlier in the week

the little big guy asked if he could make toast

i operated the toaster

and then left him at the table

with the butter and cinnamon

what was i thinking?

i gave him no direction about the butter

so is it any wonder that half the stick

was on the bread when i came back in?

my arteries clogged and a hearty chuckle escaped

when i saw this...

and now...we are venturing into the world of

the easy bake oven.

wish us luck

it cannot come out worse than the moon sand i twittered about!
