We haven't been up to a whole lot this week, due to coming down with sicknesses AGAIN! Will this sick season ever end? Bri is on medication for an ear/sinus infection and the rest of us are just dealing with congestion and runny noses, nothing unbearable. We did manage to make gingerbread men yesterday, which was fun. We also had Jeremy's district Christmas party last night; it was at The View near Lake Calhoun and the food was amazing (I think -- I couldn't taste it too great but what I could taste was wonderful.) Thanks Bernie and Heidi!
If you need a Christmas craft idea for toddlers (Bri is still high-maintenance with crafts but Emily is getting to be a better age for this), here was an idea in our MOMS newsletter this past week. Take a grocery sack and let the kids decorate it with wrapping paper scraps, ribbon, old Christmas cards, whatever. They can use it on Christmas morning to put small gifts in as they open them, so they don't get lost in the shuffle. We did this the other night and the girls had a ball.
One more picture for grandma Susanne -- here are the girls with their "Mistletoe" cats. They love them and Bri is always wanting to sleep with hers. Thanks!

What's the deal with all the funny faces? I laughed really hard when I saw Emily had the open mouth face in 3 of her pictures!
I agree with Jessie. . .What is up with Emily's goofy face. Hilarious. I love Bri's expression in that last photo. Lily is on my lap right now. She says, "Hi Emily and Bri." I asked her is she wanted to say anything else. She said, "Excuse me." Don't ask me!
