10 on Tuesday

Today I have 3 guests contributors- Maya, Max and Madi

1.  Maya is so excited for tomorrow - they have been growing winter grass at school for science and she gets to bring hers home tomorrow.

2.  We are eating spaghetti for dinner tonight and my kids are putting the noodles on their faces like Po in Kung Fu Panda.

3.  Madi - she learned a funny dance for the winter sing that she will be performing on Thursday.

4.  Max - has jumped on the tramp a lot these past few days - he has been banned from electronic things due to a progress report that was sent home on Friday - hopefully he will do better before the Christmas break so that he can do the fun stuff that he likes.

5 Thursday was a crazy day.  We had 3 activities - First Max and I had Webelos.

6.  Then we had Bryant's work party.  It was at a Sergeant's house in Chanlder  He has horses, turtles, chickens, ducks, turkeys and 2 crazy dogs.  The kids all went horse back riding, played with the days and held baby turtles.  They also saw some scropions in a case that they thought it was so cool to look at them with a black light.

7.  After that party, we had our ward party.  It was at our Bishop's home and was a lot of fun.  They had delicious mexican food, hot chocolate and lots of fun things for the kids to do.  At the end of the night, we were partied out but happy!

8.  Each nght we have been doing an advent calendar.  It is a calendar of Scriptures of Christ.  I sent out an email to my family and they all sent back their favorite scriptures of Christ.  It has been a great thing to add to our Christmas Traditions.

9.  We have fnally hit cooler weather.  I actually had to turn the heat on Monday morning and this morning it was 37 degrees outside.  It is making it feel more like Christmas.

10.  Random Fact - If I could have either a maid or a personal chef, today I would choose both!  I have been struggling in coming up with stuff to eat for dinner but then I need someone to come into my home and clean bathrooms, wash walls and everything else.

Bonus thing - Today at work was a great day!  I love to wrap boxes in christmas wrapping paper and I got to wrap 47 boxes to go out as gifts for some of our clients.  The  wrapping was neat and I loved the way that each box looked.  Too bad they won't last very long that way!  I just love taking an plain box and neatly covering it with beautiful paper!
