Counting Cars

Trying to work on counting and sorting with Ethan. (He doesn't like 14 or 15 and prefers just skipping over them when counting)  He decided instead of sorting by color like I suggested, we would sort by vehicle type, then count the lines.  However.... counting is counting.

Best Toy Ever

“A child has no trouble believing the unbelievable, nor does the genius or the madman. It’s only you and I, with our big brains and our tiny hearts, who doubt and overthink and hesitate.”

Winter on the Pitch

Finally!

It was a nonstop start to December.  Every night, something.  Brandon at soccer, Cassidy's birthday, Cassidy at gymnastics, Brandon at soccer again, Cassidy's party, Jeff working.... we just weren't going to catch a free night.  So after a 4 hour soccer practice (yes, 4 hours!), Brandon and I got home around 9:15.  I had asked Jeff to keep the other 2 up, so we could get this tree decorated!  They finished by 10:30, then happily trotted off to bed.

 Late or not, we MUST get the annual, "just decorated" pictures.

Our pretty, pretty little tree

Party Girl

 Cassidy had a great time at her party.  You can check out the action here.

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!

I braved the very high climb onto the roof to hang the lights up this year.

 I still remember fighting with my brother and sister every day in December about who got to put up the ornament.  I am happy to report that my children are carrying on the tradition. 

 The lights are up and lit.  Still adding the finishing touches, but it's all coming together!

Getting Colder.... But Not Too Cold For Soccer

 It's December.... and we are still hanging out on the side of the soccer field.
