First time for everything

Yesterday the boys and I went to visit my parents. The girls decided that we would all go shopping. I had planned on taking my boys with us but my dad insisted that they stay and hang out with him. No worries right? My dad seems like a responsible adult. He has watched my kids before. So we girls left.

We returned a few hours later with this conversation when we walked in the door.

Me: Dad how did it go?
Dad: Good. I took the boys sledding.
Me: Wow. I bet they loved it.
Dad: Um, yeah...
Me: What did Luke think? He has never been before.
Dad: He liked it until he crashed.
Me:What??

Then he let me see Luke...

Me: What happened?
Luke: A bush hit me!
Dad: He can't really steer a sled yet I guess.
Me: Why didn't you ride with him Dad?
Dad: Are you kidding, that hill was way to steep for me!

Let Christmas Break Begin...

These two had no idea what was coming for them today. It started out with smiles but didn't end that way! But my house is pretty darn clean!! Thanks for being my personal slaves today boys.

Life

• We sold our house, then just a few days before we were suppose to pack up and move out the buyers decided to back out...good thing their earnest money was there to cushion the blow!
• Luke has decided that he will only wear pajamas now. But not just any, they have to be the full zip feet kind. So everyday we have a huge blow up trying to get him dressed for the day. And to make matters worse he will only take a nap if I put him back in the pj's. So if you see us out and about and he is not dressed don't judge me!
• Poor Chad thinks he is now a house wife. He has done nothing but cook, do the laundry, cleans the house, run the errands, and go to work all day. I am such a slacker.
• Blake has been on my case everyday to get our house ready for Christmas. He thinks we are the only people out there that don't have anything up yet...maybe we are. First, I hate putting up the tree. Putting the lights on frustrates me more then anything! Then it's just a lot of stuff and my house is already small. So after about 2 days of Christmas up I am ready to take it down.
