I am pretty sad that the my much anticipated holiday break is coming to an end. It has been a wonderful break filled with family, friends, relaxation, and not-so-relaxing moments. Since I haven't posted in ages (with the exception of their holiday/birthday photos), I will do a medley of posts that covers all of December...here we go!
We painted our house. After 3 years and 1 month of living in our home, we finally got tired of the white walls. Thanks to Terry's wonderful basketball team full of able bodied young men, we were able to get 5 rooms painted in preparation for some new furniture...aka our Christmas present to each other.
The kids "helped" as well...
Olivia was particularly interested in "masking" the corners.
With the family room painted, we were finally able to put up our Christmas tree. It was especially fun this year because the kids "helped" decorate. My best decorated tree to date:)
As you can see, all of the ornaments were 3 feet and below:)
So out went our old furniture...
...and in with the new! The kids love their new "bench"!
My sister was also able to come and spend the week with us and keep the kids while Terry and I worked. (Ahhhh, the joys of having school teachers in the family who don't have to work the week of Christmas.) The kids loved "Johnson Montessori", as she calls it. They got to spend quality time with their Ti-Ti...playing, reading and even perfecting their golf swing.
Next up...Christmas!!!!!
