Christmas Eve

My mother in law went to Israel in November and bought us all scarves.Nana sent me the Hello Kitty blanket and I like my niece's Straight Pride shirt..... :)

Funny Faces

My Amelia. :)

Ice Skating

I took the girls,my nephew and Greg ice skating today for Christmas break :) (Clint wouldn't let me skate due to me being accident prone)

Christmas Shopping at the Beach

Destiny's friend Greg(the one with the red hat) loves the beach almost as much as I do so when I went Christmas shopping 2 weeks ago I dropped his friend and him off at the beach while I shopped and then we had lunch together and hung out on the beach some more.Please be praying.Greg and Destiny like each other but he is a very new Christian so they aren't dating yet......

Oh my...

She's only 7. For now, right?

And here's a new healthy-eating idea that my friend told me. It's the "S plan": you eat no Sweets, Seconds, or Snacks, EXCEPT on days that start with an S. I'll let you know how it goes. (I tried on a pair of pants I'd not worn in since May...and I could not button them. So...."S Plan" here we come.)

Thanksgiving

I've missed blogging here! This pic is from the day after Thanksgiving. I took my in-laws and my parents (all history lovers) on a personalized historic tour of Baltimore with Zippy Larson--she's 79 and is her own fascinating tour guide company! We had a blast--and learned SO much!
