Busy Saturday!

Micah had his last Drama Club meeting for 2008. They performed monologues for us and he did very well. He always "gets into character" and really puts enthusiasm and excitement into it. He has really enjoyed the Drama Club and he will be joining again next semester.

After the monologues, they had a Christmas party and the kids got to eat a bunch of junk food for lunch:-)

We then headed to Hobby Lobby to purchase our annual Christmas ornaments. Each child chooses whatever they want and someday when they move out on their own, they will already have a collection of ornaments for their tree. Hopefully they'll get a kick out of the Blue's Clues and Princess ones and realize that it represented a time in their life. It always takes forever as Micah tends to be very indecisive over everything. He finally settled on one and we grabbed it a left the ornament aisle so he wouldn't second guess himself again!

The kids and I are now home for the day, while Jamie headed over to the church. He has to judge a chili contest and then the youth Christmas Party is tonight. I'm glad to be in the warm house and away from the cold cold temperatures! Chloe is asleep and the big kids are listening to a book on CD from the library as they draw. It is sooooooo nice and peaceful, which doesn't happen much around here.
