Wow! I've heard that we're supposed to have one heck of a winter with colder temperatures & more snowfall than we've had in a long time. This week seems to be right in line with that prediction! It has snowed almost every day I think! The kids are loving it & every time they see more snow, they ask "NOW is it Christmas???" They seem to think that once there's a good blanket down, that's all we need to proceed with the festivities, the actual dates be damned! LOL
We actually went shopping today for a present for Uncle Dale. I got them advent calendars & they've had fun getting caught up on the days we've missed so far. Murray thinks the chocolate in there is pretty crappy but they don't seem put off by the low quality confectionary!
After lunch we geared up and went outside where they imagined up all sorts of stuff! Their scenarios, characters & dialogue is getting pretty complex these days. We were surrounded by hot lava (which is filled with "gooey" in case you didn't know). We also had to be very quiet when climbing the volcano because the lion was sleeping (what the heck's he doing taking a nap on an active volcano anyway? furthermore what are WE doing up here???????)
Yesterday they each got a Christmas card in the mail from Bonny (Early Intervention) and were pretty thrilled with having their own letter. Honey's been carrying hers around all day & even took it shopping with us. I made her leave it in the car because I'm terrified the thing is going to get lost! Today when I suggested going to the mailbox, it was like a stampeding herd, they were so anxious to get there & check it out. So thank you to all those sending Christmas cards, you're making 3 little girls very happy! (and a couple of other people here too!) I'm really enjoying getting news from friends & seeing some pictures. I've been working on our cards & hope to get them out soon.
I'd better sign off & get ready for bed, I have a photoshoot tomorrow. Gotta get rested up you know! LOL
