Santa






Ryan went to see Santa at the Harley Davidson store with Grandma and Grandpa this morning. He had been looking forward to meetinig Santa and I think the experience really met up with his expectations. So will it be next year that he cries, or is he going to skip this phase? I sure hope so, it's fun to see him excited about Santa.


He has learned that baby Jesus was born on Christmas day. He loves to look at all of our Nativity scenes and pick up the baby Jesus.

You are so lucky! Parker was really excited about Santa until we made him sit on his lap. Ryan is adorable. I'm sure he's excited for his little brother!

Ryan's little locks are so darling! I doubt he'll be afraid ever if he's not now. Cam doesn't really care. He does like our Nativity scenes as well. If you can find it, there is a book Cam loves! The Christmas Star. I think it's by Christine Potter. We read it every night now. "Jofeb, Mary and wonderful baby Jesus." I bet Ryan would really like it too if he's into the nativity sets and all.

Spode Dish Factory

I went with a few friends on a mommy-field trip to the Spode Dish factory in Malaysia.  We had the best time and it was an experience I won't soon forget.  We met at Becky's in the morning and got our three car caravan ready to go.  We said a prayer, did a cheer and were off at about 9 am.  We crossed the border without any issues (except for toll top-up cards) and hit the road.  In about an hour we arrived at this little side-of-the-road pottery market.  It was typical of a third-world place. True Outlet shopping.  There was a nice aluminum roof and some big fans to keep us cool.  The plates were very dusty from being outside so long but there were so many lovely treasures.  We all had a good time just wandering around searching for new dishes. I was looking for a set of every-day dishes and anything else was a bonus in my mind.  Spode is a European brand that outsources production to Malaysia.  Their retail cost is pretty high...

Skiing

This winter has been AWFUL so far.  I just KNEW it would be too!  We've had two very mild winters back to back and I knew that meant we would have to pay for it this year.   The inversion has been so bad this year that since Christmas it's been above 30 degrees like 3 or 4 times!!! Most days, it's been in the teens or lower.  I've been substituting for a teacher who was on maternity leave since December 10th.  So many inside recess days, I thought I was going to lose my mind.   My long-term job ended on Friday and with Martin Luther King Junior day on Monday, I just really wanted to get out of the inversion.  I tried to convince Colin to go to Las Vegas with me but we decided that wasn't very realistic, still cold there too.   Then I proposed skiing and we both decided it would be really fun to take the boys!  I was really pretty nervous about teaching both of the boys but the day was so amazing I couldn't even believe it.  ...
