A Pleasant Surprise

It was a very very cold Friday, and so I suggested we have lunch at George's, so that I could have some hot soupiness ( Duck Noodle Soupiness, to be exact ).  Cindy was glad to have her #6 Beef Stew Soupiness as well :)

We hadn't been there in a while, but the food was as good as we remembered, but the best surprise of all was when Kareena walked in the door!

We were sure that she was at the Donut shop and wouldn't be there till evening, so it was great that you got to hang out with her a little ( and her cousin Ya-Ya ) before we had to leave.

The Day AFTER Christmas is STILL part of Christmas :)

We had one more present for you, which wasn't exactly fully charged... so we said that if you were really good, and put your stocking up on Christmas night, maybe Santa might have yet another surprise for you.

So first thing the next morning you begged us to go over to the RV where the stocking was hanging. 

When you saw that there WAS a surprise, and that it was a NABI 2 that you had been eyeing, you shouted...

"HOW DID SANTA KNOW I WANTED THAT???????"

*grin*

Oh, and yes, those are playdoh angry birds figurines that momma made you.. :)

Holiday Activities

We are taking it a little slower over the holidays as far as "work" goes, but we still had time to do some activities - Christmas-related or otherwise.

A perpetual favorite, Angry Birds

Learning about money

"Fuel Tide Greetings!"

Holiday Sun Catchers that eventually ended up as ornaments on the Christmas Tree

You had a lot of fun with this one..

"Stick the nose on the reindeer"

Photo Journalism

Last week, we ( read : Cindy ) managed to snag us the very coveted couch area at Starbucks :)

I was trying to take some photos of US, since I'm almost always the one taking photos and never having many photographic memories of the two of US.

You decided to read for us,

 

and then, of course, the ham in you started to take over.

Until of course, you decided that you wanted a shot at taking pictures, and hey, we had Cindy and Daddy as willing models  :)

A Current Favorite Pastime

Even though we haven't gotten the different "parts" quite together to depart for anywhere just as yet, you have been quite besotted with the RV* and have insisted on spending time in there every day, especially to watch the videos that we borrow from the library....

and to play a little bit of "Angry Birds" while we are there. :)
