Thurs Dec 17th

 

Link and I did the dishes this morning. Well I did the dishes and Link got them out of the dish washer for me...and out of the draws and then got himself in them instead. Silly billy. 

My other silly billy. I couldn't quite capture the face, but Lisey makes the best faces! She is so good at making us all laugh!!

The car battery is dead. I went out to take Lisey to preschool and the car wouldn't start. I borrowed Sian's to drop Lisey off then worked on chipping away the 2-3 feet of snow on Nicks car. I was late for Ella's Jingle Jam and I did not have time to shovel snow off a car. After 15 mins of scrapping and brushing I got the car clear enough to drive, but at the sacrifice of my hands. Unthawing them hurt SO bad! I had to focus hard not to cry. Those poor pioneers that crossed the plains in the snow! I had no idea how painful it was to defrost your hands! 

I finally made it to the Jingle Jam. Sian was kind enough to watch Lincoln so I could just enjoy the music. Ella did a super good job. 

Then I checked her out of school and went to the dentist. It took forever! But at least Sian had Link and Lisey was at Bonnie's so I just read my book. Ella had to get a mini root canal poor baby. She seemed ok though, just watching tv and inhaling laughing gas. 

After the dentist we dropped off the rest of the Christmas goodies and then went to Grandma Great's Christmas party. The traffic was horrendous! But we made it alive. 

The kids did a Nativity play. The girls played Angels, which fits their personalities perfectly. Then we played the white elephant game. I ended up with some candy and a $10 iTunes gift card. Then I sent the girls home with Sian and Link and I went to pick up Nick from the airport.
