Journaling my Journey

He told me: Mom, the sun is burning out my eyes! I need your sunglasses!" How can I say no to that?

I love hitting Hobby Lobby after Christmas to see what good stuff they have left so I can stock up for next year. I took Keller with me this year. I think I shopped him out!

Christmas was busy for us this year. Because of a Christmas day snow storm plans had to be rearranged at the last minute so Christmas around here ended up lasting almost an entire week! Usually we go to Paul's Valley on Christmas Eve and spend the evening with Jed's family, but because of the threat of inclement weather and several family members being ill we postponed our celebration until the next weekend. It was t fun to have to postpone but it was nice to be able to spend Christmas Eve with my family -which I hadn't done in 7 years. Keller had a grand ole time and made out like a bandit with his ninja turtle stuff. Ninja Turtles were all he wanted from Santa this year - it didn't matter that he already had all 4 of them, he needed all the new ones that came out too! Well, Santa was good to Keller and he got his ninja turtles plus a new bike and awesome bike helmet!  Too bad we got a wicked snow storm on Christmas morning. He couldn't even take his new bike out...

Kyndra was home in December for Christmas break after her first semester at college. Keller was so thrilled to see her and even more excited to beat her up with his new Hulk hands.

Keller got stamps at school one day and boy did he have fun!
