Can you believe it’s already the first Friday of 2014?!? 2014! It’s crazy.
Here are a few of the pictures I’ve snapped with my phone over the last week.

Can I tell you how much I love Famous Footwear? I loooove Famous Footwear. Like I want to sit in a tree with them.
The Man-Child needed/wanted some new shoes. The boy is seriously the roughest person on shoes ever. So he and I headed over to Famous Footwear to find some shoes for him. It wasn’t difficult since he already knew what he wanted. I pulled out my trusty little Famous Footwear app and realized I had a $20 reward certificate and they had a $10 coupon on their app. I can handle saving $30 on a $50 pair of Vans.
If you don’t have their app…get it!
And no they don’t pay me to say that…but they should!
Well I guess they kind of do with all the money they save me on shoes!

The girlies wanted sparkly finger nails and I gave them very sparkly finger and toe nails!

We have enjoyed some pretty amazing sunsets lately.

We spent Sunday evening watching movies. I love, love, love that Hammie will still climb up on my lap and cuddle.
Such a sweet boy.

And speaking of Hammie…
He finally had his last physical therapy appointment. It has been a really long 5 months and it’s nice to be done with all the mess with his leg.
He still has a little bit of a limpy run with that leg, but it hasn’t slowed him down in the slightest.
To get the full impact of this broken leg saga you have to go back to the beginning of the Chaos story. The leg he broke was the same one that had so many issues when he was little and had so many years of therapy already. The limpy is just another bump in the road that will be overcome in time. This boy is a serious miracle child!

New Years Eve was spent with my Family. We had a great spread of food so it wasn’t a problem to stay awake and welcome in the New Year.
All the drinks from QT might have helped also…

Well not all of us were together for New Years Eve. The Man-Child and Einstein went to the New Year Eve Dance with Cousin Emma. Aubrey stayed home with the rest of us and played games.
It’s nice to finally have cousins that are the same age as the kids living so close to us.

On January 1st Christmas was cleaned up. I am usually ready to take the Christmas tree down the day after Christmas, but this year it took a little while longer to get the job done.
Plus my Christmas decorations had outgrown our totes and we had to add a new one this year. It drives me crazy that it’s red with a green lid and not green with a red lid… OCD much?

By the time Christmas was cleaned up it was time for dinner and thankfully crappy pizzas hit the spot.

I was pretty pathetic on my reading last year and this year I vow to get my reading mojo back.
This is the first book of the year…with a goal of reading 50.
I better get busy reading.

Rainbow Loom…
Need I say more?
The girlies are getting really good and fast at cranking these bracelets out. I’m not quite sure I need 7 rubber band bracelets…and how long do they really expect me to keep wearing them?!?

It looks like a very exciting New Years Eve. Now could you come and take down my tree. I loathe that part of decorating. It's seriously depressing.
ReplyDeleteLooks like all your kids had a good time.
Oh and the bracelets? I think you could handle a few more.
