Push overs

Yep, it is official... Tommy and I are suckers for a sweet simle, a ton of begging and big baby hugs from all three of our crumb-snatchers. Everyone got to open one present early tonight!

Unfortunately, one little crumbsnatcher peeked this morning and found the one present that was not wrapped, in my closet, covered with a sheet, early this morning, as I slept. (They had been banned from the closet two weeks ago... but what 4 year old would really remember that?) My bad, I should have put it in Tommy's garage.He got another present today and I learned my lesson!

~Early Christmas~

Tommy and I wanted our kids to get away from the millions of little toys that get thrown away after a month, this Christmas. Convincing everyone to go along with us became a group effort.

This year we had all the grammies and grampies go in on a springless trampoline, or "JUMPOLINE" as Pudgie calls it, with us.

It arrived this morning, on schedule, and we figured it was best to put it up, rather than even attempt to hide this baby.

Plus, I just wanted to have it up so the kids could play on it during break!!! (Because let's face it, it really gives me a break to not have them whining inside there is nothing to do!!!)

It was 100% a family effort to get this puppy up. It looks cool and is awesome to play on!

Thank you Grammie and Grampie's Alkire, Jensen, Busia and Dzja Dzja!
