CHRISTMAS PICTURES
McKenna is in her uniform for University Childrens Choral and well the one with Marielle shows her crying. Up to the actual point of sitting on Santa lap she was excited and wondering when can we see him and dancing around. So we took the picture with me standing by her.
We are in the new house
Well we are officially in the new house. Pictures will have to wait until after a certain date later this month. Mommy can't wait.
The other house is rented and hopefully this will work out. Girls and Daddy LOVE the new house. Mommy is more sentimental and LOVES the new house but really miss the old one to. Lots of memories since that is where many happy times occurred. Heck Daddy says mommy is the biggest pac rat cause since the old house did not sell we still own it. LOL Mommy gets teary because Cinderella wall gets painted over. But Daddy says he will do something here. But we took pictures and when grandpa sends them to us we will have to post them here.
THe girls saw Santa and guess who was excited up to the point of actually sitting on his lap. But we had them take the picture anyway. She wants elmo and cinderlla vanity for christmas.
The girls are excited to start new their new class at church. School stays the same for big sister.
We hope to have lots of family visitors between Christmas and NEW YEARS. (hint hint)
A BIG THANK YOU TO GRANDPA and GRANDMA Rowley for help with the move we could not have done it without them.
Big news in the house a little one is almost potty trained. YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
McKenna started basketball practices, hopefully she has fun this year. This year is the first year they separate the boys and girls when making teams. She also was given the honor of being Junior Chef this month, they made chocolate covered preztels. She is doing well in school. We are counting down the days until next friday when we are out for Christmas break.
Mommy is working hard to get the house in order. We still have boxes to go through but more and more gets done every day.

THE HOUSE IS DONE(except for appliances)
Well we went and peaked in the house. THe grout is in and drying and all it needs is us and the appliances. We tried to take pictures but the glare/screens made them not turn out. So we will have to take some on walk through day.
As for the moving, I am lazy and not a good packer. SO we are going to go room by room, take what we want and JUNK the rest. Yes, you read tht right JUNK the rest. Any workable things we don't like will go to good will. Then will do major cleaning to the old house the 9-12th and it will be ready for renters of the 15th.
THe girls are really excited.
NOW for the sticker shock of heating the air conditioning and things are going smoothly.
We sign on TUESDAY unless we hear something before then.
We did get a dining room table set which was on sale (YES WE PAID CASH) for it. It will be delivered in January. YES JANURARY but it will be coming. That gives us time to get a rug for Christmas.
OH Santa IS bringing me a new camera YEAH. Can't wait for christmas then I can add pictures of the girls again to the blog. Until walk through day. Have a great weekend.

Happy Thanksgiving
Hope everyone has a great thanksgiving. This year we are thankful for our family. We are also thankful that even in the midst of the economy we are able to get a new home. We should have some new pictures soon, although if MOMMY"S camera still worked you would see them more often.
We are thankful also to live in America. We are thankful for God's blessing on our family and our country. We are thankful for those who are serving so we can stay free and also pray for their families. We continue to pray thats hearts will be softened so that our men and women serving in the military can finally come home.
The girls are excited to put up Christmas usually we put in the tree the day after THanksgiving but this year so close to the house closing we have to wait a few weeks to put it up.
