I Know…

It’s time to be shocked – I’m actually posting something of worth (at least I think it’s worthy:)  Here’s a quick picture log of our Holidays.  Hope yours were great too!

Emery as Mary in the Nativity at my parents’  house.  It was amazing how still she sat for the whole time…she loved it!

You’re probably wondering why her hair is wet…and why Jane is naked in the next picture…  We found all three of the cousins playing in the toilet upstairs so we stuck them all in the bathtub.  They had a great time and played hard.  I got Jane out and put her in her new Christmas Eve jammies, got Emery out and in hers, unplugged the tub water, turned around to pick up the towels and SPLASH!  There went Jane in the 1 inch of remaining bath water.  UGH – no new jammies on Christmas morning this year for her!:)

The girls and Santa – (I think Kevin secretly wanted to sit on his lap too:)

Me and the girls with clothes from their Grandma Klea

This is Emery on Christmas morning after she opened a new book of Princess stories from Santa…notice all the presents still to open?  It took 5 minutes before we could get her to stop reading and open some more…

AND for NEW YEAR’S EVE we decided to insulate the living room along with the attic.  I’m sure the Christmas tree will be so warm and cozy now…

We had a little accident with the insulation blower machine. The pipe came apart in the Living Room and blew pink fiber glass insulation all over!  It was a fast and easy way to get a flocked tree:)  We spent a few hours cleaning and vacuuming every ornament and stem of the tree.  041

The happy part: We have a more insulated attic (tax rebates and lower heat bill will more than pay for our efforts) and we got In-n-Out to reward our hard work:)

 

 

 

 

 

 

This was our Lundgreen Family How to Host a Murder Party for New Year’s Eve.  Everyone got all into costume and we had a blast!  Darn that John Silver --- he did it!!:)

Wow-looks like your holidays were lots of fun. I especially love the flocked tree! We are going to insulate our attic ourselves as well. Any tips? Where did you rent the machine? We were thinking of going through Lowe's...

I have been waiting for the pictures of the flocked tree - I heard the story and could only imagine what it looked like. It does look like something that was really fun to clean up! Glad you had a wonderful holiday!
