So, I've forgotten to post about the previous week! It all started last Thursday - our women's volleyball team won the stake tournament! Yeah US!!!! Then we were clobbered in Regionals the next day. (Andy's team plays in the Men's Regionals tonight - they also were 1st place in the stake.)
Monday I french-braided Annie's hair for the first time, and it was simply precious! UNTIL I couldn't find either of my children after putting Emily down for a nap. I found them in the laundry room with Ben hiding a pair of scissors behind his back. That boy is SOOO lucky he just made a few snips on Annie's sweet head! It's not completely noticable unless you know where to look and pulling it into pigtails hides the worst. whew! I kind of lost it and still have the pieces Ben picked up from the floor in a bag. I must admit to crying just a little bit.
Emily has been sick for a week and is finally on the mend. Poor little girl was raw under her nose from all that wiping! I'm exhausted from the lack of sleeping.
Speaking of - this whole Daylight Savings thing is not such a great idea! Our schedule has shifted a bit wherer kids are ASLEEP by 6:30 at night and up at 5 the next morning. I actually kind of like this schedule though - surprisingly enough. I still think they aren't getting enough sleep and since they don't sleep in, we'll need to adjust bedtime or have a nap day to throw everyone off!
Then I had a holiday open house where several of my favorite consulatants showed their wares. It was a great 5 hour party! And, we've enjoyed the open space in the house so much that we've left the furniture in the garage and just play! Since we are typically sitting on the floor anyway - it's been fun!
Yesterday we drove a little ways past Tyler, Texas to see one of my favorite people in the whole wide world - and her family! We'll do pics of that when I have more time!
So - I've decided my favorite image of Annie is in this cute little nightgown. She has about 2 inches of feet showing and the gown flows behind her when she runs.

YEAH! We won our tournament! Too bad we lost so bad the next night.
I meant to come to your open house, but completely forgot. It has been a crazy week.
I love these jammies. They remind me of Christmas morning when I was little. You kids are adorable! They have changed so much since I last saw them. Over a year ago, wow time flies by.
Remind me of the time and place we are meeting this Saturday for breakfast. Also, don't forget to bring the books I ordered! :-)
