We woke up this morning to snow! Yay!!! The kids were so excited and by 7:45am Caymus was dressed and out in it. He came back in begging the rest of us to come out too. How could I say no?

Family Time
We had a family night on Friday....went out to dinner at the Great Wall Buffet....a Chinese food buffet place that the kids love. We eat Octopus, crab, shrimp, and so much more. After filling ourselves to the brim, we went home to watch "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" (the original), Frosty the Snowman and Frosty Returns. Then it was off to bed. What a fun Family Night!

Can you say "RED"?
So my favorite color is red. I love it, always have. My hair is naturally red. A dark dingy red. I have always dyed it some shade of red. I have been coloring it since the 7th grade.....This summer was the first time it had more blonde in it than I have ever done. It was just large streaks but a lot of them. I have been needing to re-dye it for months now...so this morning I went for it. It is very red, and in the bleached parts is almost pink! Kinda cool....a little shocking, not at all natural (I am not much of a natural girl).....It will fade a bit.....it is RED!!!!! I am totally in the Christmas spirit here!

Your never to old to have a little fun

Thanks for coming up to visit. We all had a great time.....and some really good laughs!
Lucy's 6th Birthday
Lucy's 6th birthday was on Friday, she went out to breakfast with her Abu and Papa, then opened her gifts from Caymus and Abu and Papa. Caymus picked out her gift all by himself, kept it a secret, wrapped it, made her card and paid for it himself! What a nice brother. She got a guitar, so now I have 2 super guitar players here in our house. They sound good together and some day will be famous! 
On Saturday she had her party at Chuck E. Cheese. Wow, what fun that was. She had some friends from school and our dear friend from McMinnville and her brother there. This was a great idea for a party, they do all the work and clean up and all I had to do was bring a cake! My kind of party!
After the party my parents came into town and took the kids to the coast for the rest of the weekend. They played in the sand and went to the aquarium. It sounds like they had fun, I know we did!
