Road Trip

We went to Villisca on Sunday for the Fryer family Christmas (Ray's side). I took these pictures of Parker after we got home. He was eating a lime - he also loves lemons.

It was really sunny as we were driving home and we didn't have any of Chloe's sunglasses in the car so I let her wear mine. She got a pretty good nap in.

Christmas Morning

Family Pictures

This was the picture we used for our Christmas card. If you're thinking, wait a minute, I didn't get a Christmas card... My grand plan was to send electronic cards to everyone that I'm connected to electronically and paper cards to those who I am not. I got the paper cards in the mail but never got around to the e-cards. Maybe next year.

Holiday fun at home

Pictures from the last few days.

Parker is fascinated by the Christmas tree. It looks a little top heavy as we've had to remove most the ornaments from the bottom half of the tree since he likes to run off with them.

This is what Uncle Kim's Christmas present in going in to. Parker enjoyed playing with it first. Thank goodness it held up!

"Go greased lightning you're burnin' up the quarter mile - greased lightning, go greased lightning...."

Not surprisingly, Chloe's favorite nightly activity is opening the Advent Calendar!

School Program

Chloe had her first school program on Monday. Her class performed three songs: The Kwaanza song, We Wish You a Merry Christmas and Jingle Bells (I think). She did great - sang every song and had fun. I'll try to post a video soon.

Berenstain Bears

Our pals the Forals setup the day for us Saturday.  3 tickets to "Berenstain Bears Saves Christmas" at the ROSE (should a play - if you wanna call it that, be underlined?); a babysitter lined up for Parker and chouffer service to the play and dinner afterwards.

I think that we all thought that the play was too long.  The girls like it though and had fun at dinner afterwards.  Although the picutre doesn't show it, we got them colors from the car and they were then happy campers!
We all ended up at the Forals afterwards.  Where the boys decided to sit on my lap.  Hudson did first, then Parker got mad.  I grabbed them both and snapped the pic!
