The kids day in pictures:

An abandoned art project 
(that later, very later, got finished)
The girls picked their own paint color for their room.
Do you allow your kids to pick their colors?
This time around is much better than their last room....
(think pepto bismal)
Since Josh got a haircut on Monday, he seems to have matured right into an almost kindergartner. 
Give me a minute while I grab some tissues....
While we had yummy potatoes and queso for dinner, 
Josh decided to have cereal and I gave in. 
Can you blame me?
Anna paints her nails every other day. 
She says it's cause she doesn't like her nails without it. 
And she'll do it at any time of the day. 
Here she is at 8:00 tonight:
It looks like a pretty good day, right? 

I even made them a delicious dessert to eat 
while we stayed up late watching Santa Claus 2. 
I love that movie but I think Molly Shannon was the very best in it. 
She makes me laugh every.single.time.

A very good day indeed!

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
