Oreo and Sandy

Aunt Esther suprised the kids with mice for a Christmas gift yesterday. Poor mice, they were better off being snake food. In the last 24 hours these poor vermin have been tortured. They've been taken everywhere the kids have gone, including jumping on the tramp, a bike ride, in fact right now they are at the movies with the kids. I'll keep you updated on how long these new additions are still around.

Christmas Card Photo Shoot

We went up to Felton to try and take a picture for our Christmas card. Here are some that didnt make the cut.

Holiday Music Show

Jax's class put on a holiday music show. It was so cute. The kids sang a medly of songs from each culture and did a few dance numbers. They also each had a little solo line. These kids were too cute. Afterward there was a class potluck. It was a great night.

The Neighborhood Babysitter

When we lived up in Felton we purchased one of those huge trampolines. We got it to entertain the kids since we lived on a street with no other children to play with. The kids played with it for a few days, but after that it just sat there unused. Well, a few weeks ago we set it up down here in our front yard. From the moment we were finished putting it together the thing has been in use. Our yard is the hotspot. It is great. Of course the inevitable already happened. While Jax was being babysat, the local group of pretweens dared him to jump off the roof to the tramp. I swear that kid takes years off my life. When I told Luke about what happened his response was "I guess we should move the trampoline closer to the house." I cant win. Oh well.
