Christmas Countdown

"It's Kissmiss Time Duckin!" That's what I heard Kendall say the other day when a Christmas program came on TV! So so sweet! Savannah sang in front of the church Sunday morning with the Kids' Choir. It was so sweet. It always made me cry when I heard my students sing during the programs when I was a teacher. Now I'm the crybaby mom in the audience! Seriously, I just wanted to grab Savannah and squeeze her to death and burst into loud, obnoxious, joyous tears when the song was over. I refrained. She was glad. But y'all God is so good and so faithful! I have witnessed Christmas blessings this past week, so Sunday was just even more beautiful to hear. NOW, the funniest thing is that really it's not like she's belting it out or anything. She's hardly singing at all...but still I was proud. (This is a pic of the kids before they sang, I tried to load the video and it was taking WAY too long and my computer technician..aka..Troy, is in bed now...maybe I can try again tomorrow!)

We also made our annual gingerbread house, fresh from the kit we bought! Those things are awesome! Worth every penny. The house (the ginger bread house that is) smells so good. Duncan even put the cardboard it came on in his room because it smelled so good. Guess I need to get that outta there, come to think of it! Anyway, the kids loved decorating it and even little Miss Kendall got into it. She doesn't know she's only two you know! I need to video her saying "gingerbread" it's so funny and sounds nothing like the word. I know she ate more candy than she put on the house, no doubt. They all did!Notice the little house to the left of the big one? That's one Duncan made @ PreK. He said it was the jail. Hmm...what might a gingerbread do to get put into the jail? Duncan continues to dress up and it's just so funny. Here he is about to go to the "Carrot Festival"! He has the best and funniest imagination. And here he is ready for duck hunting. I found him dressed ready to hunt after being home with Troy while I was out running errands. Troy got all his "gear" out to look through. He had earlier in the day explained to me how to walk in the woods so "they" don't hear ya. He walked all around the house that way. It was so cute. I think Troy has definitely got himself a hunting partner! (Uhh... ok, after further observation of this photo I'm left wondering HOW do you shoot a duck with a bow? Juuusst wondrin....)Savannah's into her 2ND game of UPWARD cheer leading. It's a great sports program through area churches. It's low key, positive and not too overly competitive. Which is good, since we do live in the state of Texas! She's loving it, we're loving it and she's so cute out there! She's cheering for basketball, so it's hard to get a good picture inside the building.

That's all for now...

God Bless you everyONE!

Those pictures are so sweet. Duncan is cracking me up. I can't believe Savannah is a cheerleader. That sounds like a neat program. I love hearing how Kendall talks. Too sweet. Miss you girl!
