All the Madness

Hello all!

We have been busy!!!

Last week we helped a friend out by staying at her place with her Tuesday thru Friday. We would go over in the morning and hang out till around 3:00. We just took our schoolwork with us, but had to put alot of things on hold due to not being at our house.

Then, Friday night RC and the boys went to see Prince Caspian at our church's building. Our church bought and renovated the downtown Movie Theatre and now once a month we host a family movie night. Admission is free so it's a real treat for everyone.

Then on Saturday we had an adults only Christmas party to go to so the kiddos hung out with Solomon. He's in 8th grade, the middle of five children, and so very sweet. The kids had a great time and so did the parent's. At the party we played two games and the winner of each was given a prize. They paired up the couples for the games and RC and I WON BOTH GAMES!!! I'm not even kidding! It was a really fun night filled with lots of laughter. I am already looking forward to next year's party.

Then Sunday night was our church's Christmas dinner. It was held at the Community Center and was very nice. One thing I love about our church is how we have been able to build relationships with many people outside of Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights so when we do things like a Christmas Dinner it is very comfortable and enjoyable. I do so love our church family.

So, suffice it to say, I was very happy when Monday got here and we had nothing but the usual planned!!! While RC was at band practice the kids and I decorated a gingerbread house. Bear did some of the video recording and it is pretty funny so I'll work on getting it edited and on here. Until then you will have to be satisfied with a little video of the kids after the decorating is done.

This video is courtesy of my parents who decided to get us a Samsung digital camcorder for Christmas AND give it to us early so we could actually use it during the holidays. Thanks mom and dad! We love you!
