Our Break

I decided to save up enough of my time off from work to be home with my kids during the Christmas break, and I'm so glad that I did it.  They had a list of things that they wanted to accomplish during out time together including:

• Alvin and the Chipmunks
• Ice cream at Baskin & Robbins
• Baking Cookies
• Building a snowman
• Playing games
• Watching movies at home
• Sledding

All of this was to be accomplished between the regular holiday parties, sleeping in, and playing with the presents they received.  It was a tough job, but someone had to do it!  I am proud to say that we accomplished all of the things on their wish list.  I even got in a few things that actually needed to be done around the house.  We enjoyed ourselves so much.  I can truly say that this is one of the best holidays I have had and our real focus was on one another and making the most of our time together.  Here are a few glimpses of our time.  

We went to visit my brother Mickey, and he let little Doop hold his musket.  He was in heaven, but it was a little heavy!



Oh yeah, we had a good time.  I can't wait until the next chunk of it that we get together!
