lunch with santa

the holiday festivities continue around here! yesterday we had lunch with santa at a local church. it was so cute. my favorite part was when my kiddies got their faces painted.


gracie got a snowflake and noah, a snowman.

they also had games which were a big hit, especially when they won:).


noah is not ready to get within 20 yards of santa but gracie is a pro when it comes to letting santa know what she would like for christmas.

vino

lately i have been totally into wine. i don't know to much about it except i love pinot noir, its yummy.

this is sam.



he is quickly becoming my favorite drinking buddy. this is why....

1. he doesn't hog the wine.
2. he doesn't judge me when i go for my third glass.
3. he doesn't make me watch espn or a sporting event while we drink.

do you drink wine? have any suggestions for something delicious to try?

the best of delhi

this morning we went to our neighborhood christmas parade. it wasn't anything fancy, mostly just highschool bands, local cub scout troops and the fire department but it was cute and sweet and my kiddos loved it! i think its hard not to be happy though when every five seconds someone is giving you a candy cane. jeeze louise, talk about sugar overload! my pockets where overflowing by the time we walked to the car.

morning routine

i am so very lucky to be a stay at home mom. the perks of the job are endless but one of my favorite things about being a s.a.h.m is that we don't have to kill ourselves to get anywhere every morning. we can take our time and snuggle, drink an extra cup of coffee and watch an extra mickey mouse club house.



i know this wont last forever, especially with kindergarten right around the corner {eekkk!}. so i am going to suck every last drop of goodness from our easy mornings because before i know it they will be just a memory.
