Mary Found, Rides Home From School, Dead Man, Carolyn, and Playing with Food

This Christmas Nativity set is a favorite at our house. On the first day of having it out we lost Mary. It was devastating. We looked everywhere. We thought Linc got ahold of her and threw her in the garbage. (He throws lots of stuff in the trash...thinking he's helping). Hallelujah! She is found...under a couch in a room she "was never in". Hhhmmmmm. Amazing. Christmas can happen now!
Chloe loves when Grandpa T. picks her up on his motorcycle. She beams from ear to ear!

This is a favorite game at our house. Linc plays dead while Lily runs over him. Non-stop giggling. It's hilarious.



Carolyn came to visit us again!
So...we had a little pizza party for her (our) other friends that live here too.














While Carolyn was here we decided to go to the chocolate factory. It was pretty cool...but somewhat disappointing. However, this particular sign spoke to me.

On our walk Linc was enamored with the Christmas balls everywhere. Notice his frizz on the back of his head. No matter what I do....this always happens.



Carolyn is training for a marathon. She was supposed to run 8 miles this particular morning. But Lily insisted on going along on her scooter for the warm-up. Let's just say Lily didn't make it very far. Carolyn caved.


Occasionally I will let my children play with their food. We were all sitting around eating dinner when all of a sudden it got really quiet. I looked over at Linc. He had stopped eating and decided that sour cream and baked potato would be better in his hair. So I decided to play along and create some fun hair styles.


The mo-hawk is by far the best!

Our Nativity is a favorite here too! So glad Mary was found! We love the "playing dead" game on our trampoline too!! The girls play it all the time! And the playing with the food--priceless!! :)
