Silly Post but ....

This seems like such a silly post but yet I have a little girl who is upset because it left so it must be important to someone.  Thinking hard about it, I am probably a little sad too.  Today we sold our suburban that we have had since I was pregnant with AD (which is why she is sad).

While weren't driving it as a main vehicle anymore, it is the one thing we still have had the longest.  I can see why she would be sad.  Many trips were made with this rig when we lived further north and the youngest two came home in this from the hospital, I believe.  We had a lot of good memories from it.  Good Bye old blue!

Enjoy your day!

2011/2012

2011 wrapped up with a Christmas program at the church.  AD was an angel and AT was a cow.  AJ helped corral the little ones :-)

After school let out, we headed for my folks for Christmas.  We enjoyed spending time with everyone.

The kids were so excited for Christmas morning.  AT had talked and talked about Santa bringing him a Dragon World Fortress and Santa didn't disappoint.  He was so excited that he didn't want to play with anything else.  AD got her microphone stand (a play one) and a new MP3 player.  She has spent her entire time in her room jamming out. AJ wanted anything UW and an iPod.  She wasn't disappointed either.

T & I got a new camera (although all these pictures were still taken with the old one)

And then just like that, Christmas Break was over and it was back to work :-(  AD had her 3rd grade spelling bee today.  

She placed 5th in her classroom and continued on to compete against the other 14 3rd graders (from the other classrooms).  She didn't make it past the second round :-(  She got out on the word "wheat."  And we live in wheat country!  She had had trouble with that word last night so I wondered how she would do.  She was sad she got out but by the end was cheering on her friends that made it to the district competition.  She starts tap next week and is very excited!

AJ & T started basketball this week.  T will be coaching her so this should be interesting (although probably better than me coaching her!).  She is really sore, but she'll get over it ;-)

We cleaned up AT's room over the Christmas Break and his latest thing has to be to keep it cleaned up.  He has been so proud to have it clean each day.  I am loving it, but am not holding my breath on how long this lasts!

Enjoy your day!
