Spent the entire day yesterday shopping for our Christmas Angels. We have 4 total. Danny and Colby shopped for a bike, while Chelsey and I went for clothes and a few toys. Got home last night with sacks everywhere, put each kids gifts together and Danny said "Is that all they are going to get Christmas morning?" So....... 9:00pm last night, Danny and I are at WalMart. I believe that 4 needy kiddos are going to be very happy with Santa.
Chelsey had a blast shopping for a 6 year old girl. She kept saying "Ohhh, Mom, she's so little" while looking at size 6 clothes and shoes.
We had a lot of fun putting it all together and I'll definately smile Christmas morning because we made it happen for someone who wouldn't have had much otherwise....

Christmas Tree update....
Well..... Lily has managed to RUIN our Christmas Tree. She chewed the cord in to pieces. Not a big deal, except the tree is wired with lights. Today, I bought more lights to put on it. We'll see if it's able to stand with all that weight. Grrrrr....
Thanksgiving 2009
For the first time in many years, we went East for Thanksgiving... A great time was had by all. Food and Bingo were the main attractions. A few photos (thanks Cord) of the occassion.....

Christmas Tree...(s)
Spent most of the day on Sunday putting all our Christmas decorations up. This would include our 9 foot pre-light tree. Monday, our precious (not) Schnauzer, tore into three boxes under the tree. She hid when I arrived home from work. TODAY, I get home and look over at the tree, and of the total 9 foot, lights are working on the very bottom only. Upon closer inspection, I find the end chewed off the cord..... SOOOOOOOOOO, my "pre-wired lit" tree is now RUINED. And yes, Lily was hiding! GRRRRRRRRRRR, she may have to go to school soon, to learn how to act when she's home alone and bored!
Next, today was a BIG day with the kids. Both went for their driving permits. One passed and one didn't. Let's just say that Colby is gloating over his permit. Chelsey on the other hand, will have to try again tomorrow, much to her dismay!
Updates on Xmas decor and permit to follow.....

Angels
Received our Salvation Army Angels today. It warms my heart to know that we can provide something special to a couple of kids that are less fortunate. Alexis is a 9 year old boy that NEEDS shoes and WISHES for a portable cd/radio. His sister Ariadna is 6 and NEEDS shoes and WISHES for a Barbie doll. I'd bet they get both. Colby and Chelsey shall be challenged to get what they can for both on a budget. Should be fun! Details to follow.
