My tree is up, my tree is up. I'm as excited as my kids. They keep asking is it Christmas now moma? Is it Christmas.LOL It's small and certainly won't win any awards, but I'm happy as can be with it. I've got ornaments from my grandmother on it and from her grandmother, as well as ones my kids have made and special ones from friends and so on. Makes me smile just to look at it. I do so love Christmas!!!

hugs to you all. Now to go put up my mom's I'll post pics of her tree later on.

hugs,

Family pics

Well here we are. Or at least some of us. We are missing a few, but here are a few of us. In the picture with the 5 of us, 2 are missing. I'd love to get a family picture of us all since the last one was done when we were kids. And one with us with our kids and spouses. Maybe one of these days I'll get it. This is me with my cousins, but I don't see them as "cousins". We were raised to be like brothers and sisters. So I'll forever see them as my brothers and sister. I miss seeing them almost everyday. I miss the closeness we had as kids. I miss the feeling of knowing that if I needed ANYTHING I could call any of them and they'd come.

I just wanted to share this beautiful family I have.

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth...

Well on Wednesday my son had to go have 4 teeth pulled. We went to have one pulled or so I thought. Since he had a tooth that had wiggled but then the new tooth came in and he wouldn't let us pull the baby tooth. He lost one on the bottom, somewhere, a few days prior. I think he ate it. But this one just wouldn't come out and I was a bit concerned. So I called the dentist and took him in. They did x-rays and decided he needed 4 teeth pulled! They used gas to sedate him some and pulled four baby teeth so his permanent teeth could come in right. Apparently the new teeth were basically eating the roots of the baby teeth and rather than them coming out they were just being eaten.LOL One of his permanent teeth had started to twist so there was concern that if we didn't pull the 4 he'd need more work later on. So he lost 4 teeth, but honestly with the one that had already come in, it looks like he only lost 1/2. Later on, he'll probably have to have more pulled. Since his permanent teeth appear to be a LOT bigger than his baby teeth. He was so excited the tooth fairy left him $5 in rolled change(hey it was all I had in cash).LOL

So now we'll see if I can get him to sing that song, All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth...LOL

I've been really sick the last few days but I'll post again soon.

hugs to everyone,

Sadness...

We found out today that my great uncle Warren passed away this morning. My great Aunt Norma isn't taking it well. But then I think they'd been together for about 70 years. So I may be a bit before I go back to posting. I hope to do a post on my great Uncle with pictures of him.

Halloween 2008

Well for this Halloween we went to the beach. For the first time my kids actually got to go door to door for trick or treating. They had a ball and so did I. I think I was excited as they were.LOL

In case you can't tell my baby girl is Sleeping Beauty and my dear son is a race car driver.

They had a lot of fun and I look forward to doing it again soon. Now it's time to prepare for celebrating Christmas and making sure we keep Christ in all our plans.

Have a great week.
