Winter wonderland......

On Friday Aragorn's class had a winter wonderland reading day, In order to celebrate the importance of reading.  All of the kids got to wear their PJ's and we all got to hang out and read.  Aragorn and his buddy chose the library, so we took our blankets and pillows and we read aloud.  We got about 3 books done before it was time to go.  This was a lot of fun for us, especially Rohan who is SO excited about school! He loves anything that involves going to Aragorn's school.  My only complaint was i wish the reading time were a little longer.  Just when we were starting to have a really good time it was over.  It was a lot of fun though, and i am glad i was able to go to it with the boys.

Join us for Christmas eve services......

2011 Gingerbread House.....

Thank you to Grandma Spillman for givng Rohan this years Gingerbread house.  He did it tonight, and i think we totally nailed the look on the box.

The Haircut.....

I am not disappointed, in that it looks cute, but it’s nothing special.  Eric can do that at home for free.  I was more hopeful for something different, but I’m not sure what.  And then she spiked it, which although cute, he hates.  

Stress......

This is how we relieve it in the Spillman home......Well, it's how I decided to do it anyway......

The perfect storm.....

He refused to go to sleep last night, so today he had the perfect combo for a great nap, heater on, toasty warm and the car was moving....how can you resist that?
