This week's pics...

Christmas cookies... tasted much better than they looked in this picture and lasted all of three days!! Looks like we'll have to make another batch next week if we want to have any to leave out for Santa...

We've been busy making Christmas crafts. Parker's adorn the front door

(all except the red bow & bell - not sure where we got that).

Making forts in Brandon's room has become an afternoon routine now... I'm running out of ways to top myself! Hard to see the extreme size of it in this picture, but it extends quite a bit further to the right. The kids love it, and they are really good about helping me clean it up every afternoon (you know, so that we can have the sofa cushions back and so that Brandon has a path to his bed that doesn't involve crawling)

The bottom three pictures are from Parker's "Holiday Sing" concert at school today. He was so adorable up there! Brandon told him a few days ago, "You know, Parker, I was really nervous before my first concert. But once I got up there, it was great!" What a good big brother. Parker looked like he was having a blast.


No time to actually write anything right now, but hopefully, soon!
