Lights

Another busy week in the books here. We returned from our trip to New York and jumped right back into school. The week went swimmingly and was capped on Thursday by our first snow fall and our first delayed opening of school of the year. Lily and Jack had a great time playing in the snow but it was short lived and most of it is already gone.

On Friday night - in the cool temps - we visited a local park & garden that had a light set up. The kids walked through and checked out all the holiday lights and had a good time. We returned home for pizza and movie night - Charlotte's Web. The movie was a big hit, except when [spoiler alert] the spider died at the end. Needless to say, Lily was not too happy.

On Saturday, Lily and Jack spent some quality time with Aunt Kelly while Marcy and I did some shopping and purchased a new family mobile - we replaced Marcy's 2004 Honda Pilot with a 2011 model. Lily also got a fancy new haircut.

Sunday was Lily's last swim lesson session and then we spent the afternoon at Grandma Gail and Grandpa Tom's where everyone took a turn at making holiday cookies.

That is all for now - no posts until the new year so happy holidays to all faithful reader(s).
