How Fun!

This weekend was a blast! Friday night was Amber's "Christmahanakwanzakah" concert at school. She did wonderful! She sang her little heart out for all of her grade's songs. I was so proud!
Jade was a boogerhead, but what can ya do?After the concert, we went out to The Cracker Barrel for dinner to celebrate my pregnancy and also how great Amber did in her concert. Amber's old enough that she looks at her menu and orders what she wants. When did she get so big, anyways?? We then took the girls to Walmart to spend some Christmas money they got from their Great-Grandparents. They both chose some Littlest PetShop toys.
On Saturday, Tai and kids graced us with their presence. (Love ya, Tai!) We had so much fun making Christmas cookies, opening presents (for the kiddos), and enjoying each other's company.

Then we went and picked out a live tree for my family room. It smells WONDERFUL!!! I love it!
We had a bit of a hiccup in our great day when we got home. Everyone forgot we had a tree on top of the car, and David tried to drive into the garage like we always do. Well, as you can imagine, it dented the door and threw it off the track. David then spent the next 3 hours fixing it. He took the door completely apart (all the sections) so it was in 4 pieces. Then he put it all back together after making sure they were all straight. And after tightening the tension cords, it works! It's a Christmas Miracle! I'm very glad he was able to fix it as garage doors are Not cheap. Especially if you have to save for a crib. It was so sweet cause Amber said the dinner prayer and she prayed that Daddy would have help fixing the garage. So full of faith. And her prayer was answered. Tonight we're decorating the wonderful smelling tree and watching a Christmas movie. Maybe we'll have homemade ice cream and hot chocolate, too. =)
