A Visit With Santa

We saw Santa today at the Golden Triangle Mall. THERE WAS NO LINE and I was so excited that all of the girls actually participated, the SANTA looked real, and we got pictures with them all looking at the camera and NO ONE WAS CRYING. I normally don't like to do Christmas stuff before Thanksgiving, but this is one activity that I am glad that I did early. Abigail gave Santa her list and made sure that he knew that she was living at Grand Nan and PaPa's house now.

Children's Place

I love Children's Place! Their clothes are cute, affordable, and good quality. Sometimes they have some awesome sales too! They always have a pretty good sale the week before Thanksgiving. Right now, they have alot of items on sale and they also have a 25% off your entire order of $50.00 or more promo code: it is D6C2010. I ordered 23 items and only spent $149.00. That is an average of $6.47 per item. Now I am done with clothes shopping for Christmas for my girls and feel pretty good about the purchase. Oh, and by the way, that total was for Taxes and Shipping too. They always have $5.00 flat rate shipping. I love shopping online cause I don't have to spend the gas or time taking three little ones with me. That $5.00 shipping charge is totally worth it.

Cute Pictures

These are pictures that Elisa (the girls babysitter) took last week. They turned out pretty good, so I thought that I would post them.

Amazing, they are all looking at the camera!

A Fancy Halloween

The girls decided that they wanted to be Fancy this halloween. Abigail wanted to be Fancy Nancy, but didn't want her sisters to be Fancy Nancies too, so we had a Fancy Dancy and a Fancy Clancy. They loved playing dress up in all of the froo froo stuff.

The Big Kids

We have a wonderful babysitter named Elisa. She just moved here from France and is so patient with the kids. Elizabeth has finally warmed up to her and that says something. She helped
the kids get ready for the trunk-or-treat on Friday. She was excited to celebrate Halloween.

What a happy girl!

First Grader

Kindergarten. Oh My!

This is Abigail's First Grade Picture a HUGE improvement from last year's picture, I must say. I can't believe my first born is growing up so fast.

Grandparent's Day

In September, Abigail's school celebrated Grandparent's day by inviting all of the grandparents to a breakfast put on by the PTA. Abigail was so proud to have Grand Nan and Papa there.

Spot Shot

I need to say how much I LOVE this product. So far I have gotten crayon and dried nail polish out of carpet with this stuff and chalk out of upholstery. Both of my twins are quite the artists and they will write on anything and everything if they have pens, pencils, crayons, markers, or paint in their little paws. They seem to not be making the connection that they will have a consequence if they write on anything but paper, so it is best to keep all writing utensils out of sight. It never fails though, they always seem to find something to do their artwork with. This product is not a natural, eco-friendly cleaning product. If it were I would have the twins clean up their own messes, but it has a pretty strong chemical smell. The biggest thing is that it DOES THE JOB, so I still highly recommend it. I am thinking of doing my own little test and taking a permanent marker and writing on a piece of fabric to see if I can get a permanent marker stain out. That would be the ultimate test, I think. I couldn't believe it got nail polish out though, amazing.You can find Spot Shot at Walmart and Walgreens and other stores I am sure, those stores are just the ones that I have seen the stuff at, but if I couldn't find it I would go so far as to ordering it off the Internet, it is that good.

Carson & Barnes Circus

Yesterday, my parents surprised us and took us to the circus in Fort Worth. This was the only decent picture I got of the whole thing because my camera didn't do well inside the arena. We had lots of fun watching all of the acts with the Elephants, Tigers, Ponies, Dogs, Acrobats, Clowns, and much more. Elizabeth of course was a bit nervous about the clowns. It was a really fun treat and the kids are still talking about it today. Abigail even one a free ride on an Elephant.

Rangers 7 - Yankees 2

Darin took me on a date yesterday to the Texas Rangers playoff game. It was a great game. Of course we were in the nose bleed section, but it was really fun anyway. Aren't those Texas flags beautiful. The energy of the crowd was great and WE WON!! It has been a long time coming since the Texas Rangers were in the playoffs

Face Painting

When Darin painted his face for the UNT game (see below) the girls had to have their faces painted too. I will never claim to be an artist, but I think the face paint turned out okay, especially since I was working on moving objects. Unfortunately, Emily had an allergic reaction to the paint and her whole face got red and swollen.

UNT Eagles - Mean Green Fan

My dad loves UNT. He is a very faithful patron of the basetball and football teams. He invited darin to a game about two weeks ago and Darin decided to try to out do my dad as UNT's number 1 fan.

Spa Day with Grand Nan

The other day, Grand Nan let the girls take a bath in her jacuzzi and then they did hair and nails and played with Grand Nan's many colorful accessories. What a great memory!
