School Concert

Friday the girls had a Christmas concert at their school and did a wonderful job singing some festive songs. Macy's class actually sang one song entirely in Spanish and as beautiful as it sounded, I have no clue what was being said.

You did a wonderful job Abby and Macy!

GNO Par-tay

Thursday night was a GNO (Girls Night Out) with my cousins and aunts, and can I just say I have the absolute funnest cousins and aunts there are! We had so much fun. All of us were laughing so hard that most of us were in tears by the end of the night.

We played dirty Santa with white elephant gifts and while some people brought actual white elephant gifts, others were very generous. My favorite Aunt Linda brought one of her old wigs as her gift and her daughter Laura opened it up. We had a good laugh! Check her out with her new do. Love it Laura!

Happy Birthday Abby

Our little princess turned six today. Wow! I can't believe how grown up our kids are getting. I remember Abby being born, at 2:00 in the morning. She just wouldn't let me get any rest and had to come right smack in the middle of the night!

We had a little party for her today and she invited 4 of her little friends from school. All the girls showed up in their dresses and we had a wonderful princess party. For the first 15 minutes all they wanted to do was twirl in their dresses and dance to music. Too cute. It was a party filled with princess games and instead of pin the tail on the donkey, we played pin the kiss on the frog.

Happy Birthday Abby. We love the sweet little girl you are.

Our Thanksgiving Weekend

Just to fill you in, late, on our Thanksgiving weekend. We had a wonderful time in Idaho with Grandma and Grandpa Udy. The kids ran around like crazy outside with their cousins and it was nice to be in the country and to be able to let them run free.

We first stopped by Pocatello to visit our good friends, the Abercrombie's, and then it was off to see the Udy's. Clint's sister Kathy and I made our annual after Thanksgiving shopping spree and left to get to the stores at 4:00 in the morning. That made for a very long day but we did get some nice deals.

While we were out spending shopping, the guys took the kids into the mountains to get Christmas trees. They loved it! I have to say, Clint did a nice job picking out trees this year and we strapped a real beauty on the top of our van and brought her home. Clark Griswald would be proud!
