It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Chrismakkah

I got out all the holiday decorations this morning. What a mess. The kids got out all other holiday decorations, Easter, Halloween, etc. They opened all the Easter eggs and horded all the candy. The kids played with all the decorations, laptops, and trains. Daddy worked most of the day unfortunately. We started My Gym again. Since we are going to miss our normal Monday class, we went to a make up class today. The kids were so excited to be back at My Gym. It was really cute. Now that they are in an older class, they really had to follow directions and pay attention. The kiddos did great. Justin even volunteered to go over to the instructor to show everyone the practice skill. They loved sliding into the ball pit. So cute to watch them play. We came home and had lunch. Then we played outside for a bit, the kids were really into riding their scooters, more so than their bikes. We did a little gardening. We met Alan, Roberta, and Tierney at Aliso Creek Beach so I could take their Christmas photo. My first beach pics, I had fun. The backyard lighting came out a little weird but besides that pretty good pics. The kiddos played in the sand for a while and I got to play with T.

We headed over to the Ritz to see their decorations. Very disappointing but it was still fun. We all went to Knowlwood for dinner. The kids played with the video games and of course there was only one driving machine, so I became a referee. On our way home getting off the freeway, I bumped someone’s car. You can’t even call it an accident as I hit so lightly. Unfortunately I hit a crazy lady. I called Bret to come over and just as Bret came a police officer stopped. What a nice guy. He gave us his card as he would testify she wasn’t acting like she had hurt her back. Thank goodness I had my camera too and I got a picture of her bending over getting something out of her trunk. She may have a scratch on her bumper from me, it is hard to know if it was there previously but I got pictures. The ironic part was her name is Lie. Oh well we are all ok so that is all that matters and no damage to my car. I called the insurance company when we got home. Bret read books and got the kiddos in jammies. They are sleeping.
