Where Did This Month Go?
Since I got a complaint today about my slacking on the blog I thought I'd better post a few updates on what we've been up to! Tim has been teaching the kids how to play Texas Hold 'Em.
Kennedy and the boys have been busy with lots of hockey practices and games. Tonight Kennedy played at the Sports Center and the boys played at the Youth Arena at the same time. Mom went to one game, and dad went to the other. Next weekend we will have to switch because they have games at the same time again. Seems like we have a lot of that in our future.
The kids have a new "check system" behavior plan. Each check carries a consequence .jpg)
and if your checks total more than five by the end of the day.... let's just say it's not a good situation. It seems to be working all right; except for our Thanksgiving trip to the cities when they fought almost constantly. We were treated to Thanksgiving dinner at my mom's and Ryan, Ann and the girls came. Baby # 3 should be here in a few weeks! This weekend we decorated for Christmas and the kids hung up all their ornaments. This year's choices were a Wild hockey puck for Carter, a sparkly guitar for Cooper, a school bus for Kennedy and a watermelon slice for Katelyn. The kids have also been working on their Christmas lists, but I am not going to post them this year since last year they got duplicates of everything. I have done a little Christmas shopping, but am hoping to get a good start on it this week...in addition to hockey practices on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, church activities on Wednesday and a Spud hockey game on Thursday.

Hey, NOTHING was said about the outdoor light "situation".... that was huge in your house Fri/Sat... when we left back for Mpls., there were strings of red and white lights everywhere in the living room... did your design ever make it to the rooftop ? ? G'ma S.
They are up...but coming down soon as about 40 lights have already burnt out in the two days we have had them up. UUGGHHHH!
Way to go Ria! See I told you that there was lots of information to share...
We will see you soon! Bonnie
Good to hear more Ria. The boys last night said they didnt know an OLD woman could put up Christmas lights when they seen mine. Also when they were leaving asked if I could come over and do yours as Dad couldnt seem to fix them. What great grandsons I have. GGMa B
