And, we're back!

Sorry for the absence. Migraines having been kicking my trash. Anyway, here is our favorite things of the past 6 weeks:

CHRISTMAS--My mom and dad were able to come up for Christmas. Carl had to work every day until the new year, so we were thrilled to be around family. It took us all day to open presents. The kids could have taken more time. They would open a gift, and be done. They wouldn't want to open any more. They would just want to play with the one they opened.

CJ's FAVORITE GIFT: His Tool Set-

He went right to work. Apparently, the chair needed some work and just about everything else in the house.
EMMA JANE'S FAVORITE GIFT: Her ZU ZU Pet: She loves to mother everything, so CJ was excited about about not having two mothers for a little bit.
SEEING FUN UNCLE BRANDON-- The kids had so much fun seeing uncle Brandon. They keep asking me why he had to go back to school. They had so much fun playing with him while we were down in Dothan.

FIREWORKS: While we were down in Dothan for New Year's Eve, Nana and Papa introduced the kids to the wonderful world of fireworks. CJ, who was already obsessed with fire, is now even more obsessed. Thanks? Emma Jane had so much fun picking out the fireworks. This is the kids all decked out in our firework wear-pjs.
GOING TO VISIT THE JENSENS: We went to visit Carl's sister Amber this Monday-Wednesday, and we had a blast! Ryan is now the coolest person in CJ's eye's because he started a fire in their fireplace with one match. CJ was just in awe! We are so sad that they are moving to New Hampshire soon! It is always so much fun to hang out with you guys.

Well, that covers it! I promise to be a better blogger in 2010. :) I know you guys were just in such suspense waiting to hear from us.

really like cj tool kit, and who doesn't like fire, back when i was younger we would just buy a gallon of gas in ozark and light things on fire, i think robbie and brandon got mad at me one time burning some rope or something : ) although not suggesting the gallon of gas for ceej
