January 18

Today was nota  good photo day.  Didn't get a lot and those I got were some pretty ugly ones.  I'm blaming the weather for that even if it makes no sense.  Anyway, here are the kiddos before school showing off their paper chains.

 COld and windy at the bus stop.  Then a rather uneventful day at school.  I have been talking to them almost everyday when they get home.  Today was do nothing day.  They were supposed to go to Tae Kwon Do, but they realized that I had the sparring gear.  Oh well.  I was in a meeting all afternoon so even though they called early enough that I could have gotten it to them, it was too late.  My first truly sweetlish moment.  I had thought if it a couple days ago and then forgot.  I was just glad I remembered it was trash night tonight. :)

When I got home, they said they wanted to eat at Ron's unprovoked.  So, who am I to disagree?  Back to Ron's we go.  I had an oval.  JEremy had his burgler and Amelia had her pizza.  It was only about a 3 minute wait.  Here they are working on their owl colorings.

  

When I got home Amelia showed me her new rainbow fairy book.  It is approximately 31820398X better than the novels she has been bringing home.  It is a reasonable size with big words and colored pictures.  She told me that this one came from the classroom though and not the library.

I see they are still looking for $ for the Silent Auction.  Not sure if they counted the check I sent for both A&J or not.  Also not sure why they spent $230 on AG and $71 on legos, but what do I know.  I saw the list of sponsors for the Silent Auction and it's very, very long.

On our way back from Ron's I picked up milk and got gas.  A&J both got swedish fish.  They ate 6 of them and then played with 1 of them for a while.  Amelia was dressed in her Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique hair accessories today, too.

When we got home, we did some clothes picking and a little packing for WDW.  I also got out the cleaning supplies and cleaning $ because I really don't want to have to remember that later.  We will need more crappy paper towels which I put on the list on Our Groceries.  I started typing "crap" and it immediately gave it to me as a choice, which amused me.

Well, I hope you get a chance to get some WiFi again before you get home to read this.  Did they have it on the plane or not?  All international flights should have it.

Anyway...enjoy your last few days and we'll see you soon.  We love you and miss you!!!!!!!
