Jessica is just too cute!!!!

She loves Jordin Sparks' song Tattoo. I taped her singing it tonight. I need to figure out how to post it here, the size is too big. I will upload it as soon as I can.

It finally stopped raining. The weather is much colder and gloaming but at least it is not raining. Eleanore has her Christmas program tomorrow night. Than Friday she is having a sleepover, followed by us going to Grinch on ice exhibit Saturday night with the scouts. I am just looking forward to relaxing this weekend. Got Eleanore's room cleaned today and bed moved form in front of the windows. Andy got to play the star wars game on the wii for a little bit tonight and Jessica had to play.
I think I might need a boat to get home. It has rained all day yesterday and driving to work last night was not fun. Andy got his gift card Monday at scouts and had to go spend it at Walmart after school Tuesday. He got a star wars Wii game and a helicopter. Eleanore begged him to get her something the entire time we were in Walmart. She seems to forget that she gets things in Jan for cookies. I am counting down to Christmas and being able to stay home a couple days after my surgery to recover and relax. Starting to plan vacations here and thinking about where to go and what to do. Right now thinking that we might take a quick trip in March for a long weekend and August to Chicago to see the sites. Until later.

It's Monday again. Boy were does the weekend go. I did some layouts for a crop this past weekend. I finished up shopping and wrapping today. Andy had scouts and got to throw a pie in the Kernel's face tonight. Boy did he have fun. The girls had dance tonight and afterwards Jessica talked daddy into getting a toy afterwards. The weather is changing and it is very winding and getting ready to rain.

Well, just noticed that its been a couple days since my last post. This week the kids made ornaments for the Kids can scrap challenge. I need to upload them and post them here as well. I have finished shopping but still to finish wrapping up. I have been working on a couple challenges today. Early today i took Andy and Jessica to Micheal's for the Santa's workshop. Wow for 5.00 the kids made a cup, 4 ornaments, a bag, and a canvas. How cool was that. I will be putting picture of them up as well. I am still trying to get the kids to clean their rooms. Will write later.

Hi everyone, Well what a big weekend with visits, travels and shopping. The kids went back to school Monday (yeah!!!!!). Found out that Jessica won a little prize package from Kids can scrap website for the first challenge. The girl who runs the site is actually going to send everyone who did the challenge a little something but Jessica was really excited to see her prize package and name on the site as a winner. Way to go, Jessica... The next challenge for them is to make an ornament by December 15th. The kids are sending their pen pals in Canada letters tomorrow. Hopefully we will be able to go to the mall and see Santa after school tomorrow and have pictures taken. I got my new cricut expression today and played with it for a little bit tonight. I am excited about being able to use it this weekend for some scrapping. Well got to go.
