A morning spent at home getting ready for the cleaners. The kids pretended to be dogs, so in\u00a0 between writing thank you notes I would walk them. Then I would write a note and let them play at the dog park. After the house was all cleaned up I let the kiddos watch TV. They chose Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas DVD. They hadn’t watched that in a long time. The kids have been wanting to go to a fast food place that has a play structure, so I took the kiddos to McDonalds. They had a\u00a0 great time playing. Nikki thought it was a miracle that people were getting their food so fast. They played so well with the other kids in the play area that we were there for a while. I was a geek and worked on my lap top and edited some pics. It was kind of nice even though I was feeding my kids crap. So fun to watch the kiddos all play so nicely. We came home for a short bit and played out front. The kids played with bubbles, rode bikes, and just had fun outside. Then we headed to soccer for Justin. I took the boy’s team picture. I had a small problem with my camera so I am not sure how everything came out-I am afraid to look. Nikki and Justin had fun playing with another set of twins after soccer. They were running around, scootering around, playing….no toys involved just fun. We ended up staying for a while, well at least until we got too cold. We came home and had dinner. Dad played games with the kiddos. I went for a walk with a friend. When I got home Nikki made me a picture of her and I-it was so sweet. She missed me so much for some reason. Therefore, I played doll house a little bit then read some books. We tried to get the kids to bed a little early, we are all tired.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
