Cold + rainy = pj's and crockpots

It was awful out so we spent 3 full days in our pj's! We watched tons of movies, got the house ready for Christmas and ate and ate and ate! It was heaven, and the calm before the storm of Thanksgiving week. :)

The last games

Pics from the last soccer game, as you can see he's very excited its over. But he did score a goal this game and I have it on video!

Addy has loved this season of softball and will be going back in the spring.

1st grade musical

Way late, but still cute. :)

Cookies

"Mommy, can we have milk and cookies? It IS the season, you know" said Addison.

Scotty's birthday

Well thank goodness we started celebrating him on Friday at the PJ concert cause having a birthday on a Monday stinks.  Scott spent most of his birthday with a client (not what he was expecting to do on his birthday) but that night we had dinner at Uchiko, finally.  And he got the new xbox so he should be one happy camper.  :)

Celebrating at his mom's house.  I made him a Reese's peanut butter and chocolate pie.  Pretty yummy. 

Yummy soup in this chilly weather

It's cold and the only thing that gets me over that is a hearty yummy soup.  I have used the crockpot so much already this year, that I had to run to Bed Bath and Beyond in a hurry because I thought it went out on me.  But of course as soon as I came home with a new one, it worked again.  I already had the food in there so that was good.  And I should post that recipe, as it was chicken dumplings and it was gooooooodddd!

My winnings from the DS farmers market.  A lady from my MOPS makes this jam and it is delightful.   Lavender berry, yum.

Field trip!

3rd time was a charm!  Half of the 1st graders finally got to take their field trip to the Wildflower center.
