Sunday December 20, 2009


This morning showed just how exhausted we were. We all (every single one of us) slept in until 9:30am....which never happens! The kids got ready for church. I unfortunately had to miss it because Tyson needed to stay home. I always love going to church on the Sunday closest to Christmas. There are always lots of musical numbers, and I love hearing them. So Christmassy!!

There is a major event today....KAITLYNS BIRTHDAY!!! She officially turned 11 years old. She was so pleased about this. We had her party earlier with her friends (the spa party) and we had given her our gift early (some Dr. Who books, a comfy blanket and some make up) so we didn't have a gift for her today. I did make some cupcakes while she was at church though. Grant made a delicious dinner (French Onion Soup, Southern Fried Chicken with Milk Gravy and mashed potatoes) and we had invited Meg and Caleb over to enjoy it with us. Kaitlyn got lots of birthday calls from Grandparents and family. She was feeling very special. Maiya came home from church feeling sick and lying around for most of the day in and out of sleep. Oh dear, another sick one :(

Oh, and for our advent calendar today it was.....dart tag! Grant had bought a bunch of nerf guns that come with vests and goggles for the kids. They went downstairs and turned the basement into a good maze. They had barriers set up (using mattresses and gymnastics mats). So fun!
