We had a great Christmas. We went to SLC for a few days after and had a really great break. The kids got the pony for Christmas. He is not broke but is pretty gentle. J has had fun working with him. We will get him going and rideable soon. We are doing a meal sharing with three other families. It is so nice. We were quite apprehensive at first but the meals have been great. I cook for our family and three others on Wed and deliver it ready to eat by 5. Someone brings us supper Mon, Tues, and Thurs. I have found I have time to clean rooms and places that normally see me about every other year. I have time to blog, exercise, and I don't have to cook, clean, plan, prepare, shop for every night of the week. Its great. Some funny things M is on a princess kick, I told her to pick up toys and she said princesses don't pickup toys, I said do princesses play with toys, Yes she said then princesses pickup toys. Ok I will. I asked her if she wanted to lick the spoon from making brownies. "Mom princesses don't lick spoons." SHe did lick it. We had a reaaly cold week when the daytime high was single digits and I was taking the pickup and all the kids to piano. P didn't have a coat on, D had on a jacket so I gave them the "be prepared to walk a mile what if we got a flat tire whaqt if we slid off the road" speech P says under his breath "mom its a chevy don't worry." He is such a boy. one more thing. The fedex man came back (parked on the road this time). I had been downstairs picking up and had found some kabob skewers. Well I wasn't headed up stiars so what does a home mom do with things like that? Of course stick them in your hair. Well the door bell rings and I sign for the overly happy fedex stuff. A few minutes later I bent over to pickup B oops out falls my skewers. What is the deal with the fedex guy. Anyway always something to laugh at around here quite often its myself. Have a good day.
