Meghan and the mall Santa

Meghan visited Santa at the mall and said she wanted a pink pony doll. Phew... Sean didn't want to go. He felt his letter was enough.

Letter from Santa

Sean received a letter from Santa today. Unfortunately, the girl's letter was not immediately found in the mailbox and she is upset. But apparently, all the mail didn't make it out of the mailbox and a second inspection revealed a letter from Santa to Meghan. Phew. That was a close one.

The Girl's Christmas Program

Meghan had her Christmas program last week. Here are the pics.

Painting and stuff...

So I am rushing to get mom's room painted and ready to put the new floor in on Tues. New doors, door casings, painting, and baseboards. We haven't painted it since we bought the house. Wilson wasn't much help, but likes his picture taken.


The boy demonstrated his literacy skills today. Unfortunately, it was targeted at a 4 year old who can't read yet.

The girl likes pink. Santa asked what she wanted for Christmas..."Pink Toys", she says.

Grass! It was like magic.

Sod is awesome. I should have thought of it earlier... It is like magic front yard. Just keep watering it. Sprinklers are done and working. Getting the control wires from the garage was a bit a challenge as I had to feed them through the old part of the house and then the new part of the house. I had to go under the house 3 times and drill through the sub-floor. Thank god for cordless drill motors.
