piano recital and christmas time fun :)

Sunday night fun at our house...kids were running around with Devin, and then towel flicking started..Grandmas fault! :)
We went over to help Grandma Beebe put up her tree. She broke her elbow (another fall :( so the kids brought all the boxes up.
Elf...reading Christmas stories by the tree with hot chocolate :) the voted favorite!
Taylor's first real piano recital. She was so mad at me! :) She did really great! I'm so happy I sent her to Debbie. 1. we don't have to fight about piano anymore. 2. When there's a recital, you HAVE to practice (and I don't even have to bug her). Kids are not happy. But I am :)
Sad times...Zacky caught a nasty bug..after 2 weeks, the doctor said it was most likely influenza that then turned into bronchitus. He missed almost 2 weeks of school, puked purple smoothie up all over the couch and carpet, coughed and coughed and coughed...not a fun December :(...he then passed it to Taylor and Daddy who both had it for 2 weeks as well....so over coughing and staying home due to sickness! Ruins Elf time!
Daddy's finally home for Christmas! Yay! He brought a treasure hunt home for the kids...24 style! They loved it :) We miss Daddy!
Running for the clues all over the house...24 is Taylor and Daddy's new bonding obsession. He brought another season home and they both finished it!
At the end of the grandma beebe decorating night, we sung to Devin since we missed his birthday. We had brought Dan birthday cookies, but he and Kara didn't make it (at Dan's house for the night). We didn't have any matches, so Zacky made a flashlight candle that he flickered when Devin blew it out :)
