Meet the newest member of our family. Blaine and I are behind this huge conspiracy right now. While the kids went to Grandma and Grandpa's for the night we picked up our new addition and are planning this huge surprise for Christmas morning. Our other dog Boo loves her already.

Chocolate frenzie!

Last week in anticipation for Christmas, Malakai refused to accept the one chocolate per day portion from his advent calendar. Instead, he proceeded to hide under the kitchen table and shovel all the days of chocolate (up until new years eve) in his mouth. Then with celebration in his voice he announces. "Mommy, look at my calendar!"

Who knew????

School starts I have all the kids winter gear ready and wouldn't you know, the first snow fall Ginny complains that her coat isn't warm enough. Still on a very low income I search high and low for a warm winter coat under $40.00. Too my luck (or so I thought) I found one at army and navy for (can you believe) $29.00. It was warm, it was her size and best of all, it was pink. Three weeks later .... The zipper breaks. Now, apparently we are already into spring wear and there are no decent winter coats left to be found of course unless I want to pay closer to $100.00. Back to the old cold coat we go. Finally in desperation I thought either I fork out the bucks to get it fixed or I fix it myself. I googled how to fix a jacket zipper. I know! I am so cheap. Wouldn't you know, I found a site that explained that as long as the zipper is not missing teeth it is not broken. Who knew? All I had to do was pinch the latch closed more so that it was tight enough to close the zipper. I Love Google. They don't call me the google Queen for nothing. :)

Ginny performance
Ginny did her first dance recital today and we were so proud of her.
The set before Ginny was ballet and Blaine saw a girl chewing gum. Blaine leans over and says "if that was my daughter I would not be impressed." I lean over and whisper "well you better go get Ginny to spit hers out." Needless to say, as you can tell the gum stayed in the mouth. :) Daddy was still just as proud of his baby girl.
