the family room couch….

calvin and ty… 2008

it’s a homeschool thing!

just before the Christmas school break…. i came into the room and this was the scene I found…. calvin doing a reading assignment and Ty sleeping close by!

one of our family traditions…

every year we sit down and decorate a ton of roll out sugar cookies… then we eat them one after another, until we are sick and they are all gone! a few “titles”, jim is the ‘redhot king’, you can tell a cookie he made when they are covered with redhots… calvin is the ‘frosting king’ it’s piled on and he likes to make faces on the cookies… me, well lets just say, I’m the ‘baking queen’!  another wonderful Christmas has come and gone… guess it’s time for me to start making those, “next year I’m going to be on the ball” statements that I’m sure to not follow up on! hey, guess that’s sort of a family tradition too!

again, Merry CHRISTmas everyone!
