Caleb and I spent a day with friends visiting the fire station. Our timing was perfect, because as soon as we finished with our tour, they got a call and we got to see them leave.
Andy and I are in charge of the couple's ministry at our church. We coordinated a trip to New York City. It was absolutely tiring but SOOO much fun! The city is amazing all decked out for the holidays. The boys spent a wonderful weekend with their Mimi and Papa, so Andy and I had a great time to ourselves.
Both boys had Christmas programs at their schools. Unfortunately at Alex's, we were sitting too far away from where he was to get any good pictures, and Caleb's preschool asked parents not to take any pictures so the kids wouldn't get stage fright in front of 300 cameras. How devastating for a mom! :) I was able to get a few pictures of Caleb when Santa visited his preschool.
Today is Alex's birthday. Andy was going to take off work for it, but Alex said he would rather go to work with Andy instead. He LOVES going to the golf course. So, I got up at 5 a.m. with the 2 of them (I'm still recuperating) so we could give Alex his skateboard before they left. He has been begging for one for several years, and Andy decided that age 7 was finally old enough. We're not talking about a kiddie one either. He's got the real thing and he's proud of it. Of course I'm worried senseless. They grow up way too fast, don't they?
