Jeff and I started the weekend by taking a "half-shopping-day" on Friday and getting the Christmas shopping for the girls done. I am having a hard time buying for them this year for some reason. Or perhaps I am struggling with the fact that my girls HAVE SO MUCH and I am know there are many people that have so little. I am feeling a little selfish. Saturday I went my way, and the girls had Daddy Daughter Extravaganza Day. I got together my my friends and made my "just-like-DeBrands-but-better" caramel apples, and Jeff took the girls to Storytime with Santa at Dupont Hospital. They got plates, got to sit on Santa's lap and even went secret Christmas shopping for mommy. Unfortunately, Lucy just couldn't keep a secret and told me what she got me. It made Carlie very frustrated. Saturday night we attended the Ringger Christmas, and I am just thankful for my HUGE family. I am not sure how many more years we have with Grandma and Grandpa, and it makes me sad to think about that...but on the other hand our family has experienced so many miracles this year, I am just enjoying this moment. Sunday we went to the mall to finish up more shopping, and then went to a basketball game at Spiece Fieldhouse. Something very different for my girls...and let me tell you...they don't give a cahoot about basketball. They were more into the princess ornaments that I just bought them, oh - and popcorn. Future in sports? I don't think so. Except for running...see the clip below with one of games orchestrating....my girl's did pretty good! Lacey's boys were HILARIOUS! Especially Eli throwing the balls back!

HAHAHAHAH...I am CRACKING up about the video. That is just so typical of our boys. It makes me sad to miss out on all the fun!
I want to be invited to next year's Apple making party. I love that idea!
If you keep getting people interested in your apples, we are going to have to branch out and start a day on our own! Maybe next year I will give it a try with you...just too busy this year!
