What's Happening

What's happening right now at our house is definitely Christmas. You're probably thinking "Christmas? What about Halloween and Thanksgiving?" and you're absolutely right. But someone added cinnamon smell to our car via Stater Bros. pinecones and so the Christmas season has officially begun at our house. Also, all the magazines we love to peruse for toys have been arriving in our mailbox, so the result is a daily update of cut and paste lists for Santa. So that's what we've been up to. Christmas is the favorite holiday around here by far and we can't wait to get started!

Summer's Over Already?

I can't believe it! This summer went by so fast! We are halfway through the Half-Blood Prince, kept up with chores pretty well, but didn't get to the lemonade stand. Well, that's okay. It was a great summer and school starts tomorrow. Already!
