Addie's Time

See comments at the end. . . Sorry did things out of order today.














This picture has nothing to do with snow or a lateover. . . I just thought it was adorable. We didn't have a lot on our agenda last night and the boys REALLY wanted to do play-doh. Now, I have serious issues and a hard time letting go enough to really have fun with that stuff. The color mixing, the mess it makes, yuck. But, last night was the perfect time because the kitchen floor needed both vacuuming (According to Line that is how you spell that word) and mopping. So I let them have at it. It was actually really fun. The best part was a tie between Daddy getting involved and making his own elaborate Christmas tree and the boys discovering that one of their toy things made the brown play-doh look like poop. Perfect.













So - Addie is home from school for Christmas break . . . we started her time here with a bang- wrestling in the snow with her brothers and having a late-over with her oldest 2 Maile cousins. . . She is loving life. The girls were adorable to have over here. I can't remember the last time someone asked me - can we do a project? It's usually - will you throw the football? Can you raise the basketball hoop? or something like that. So great to have some girls around for a while. . . .The time in the snow was hilarious. The boys just assumed that Addie would play like they do - blocks in the back, tackling and white washes. Just what a girl likes to do in the snow right? They did manage to jump all of the snow off of the tramp which was on my to-do list. Thanks guys!

It sucks that I'm never down there. But that will soon change, I hope. And, Merry Christmas. Love, Tim/Uncle Tim

Snow off the trampoline...I guess I never thought of that as a problem but it makes sense...funny to think of them bouncing and snow flying. How lucky for the girls to grow up around each other...with wonderful "aunties" to visit! Love, mom/gma
