Two weeks

I'm sitting here realizing tomorrow is our last day of Christmas break and was starting to feel like we'd wasted 16 days of opportunity to "get things done" but I think as I wrote this post and see all we did accomplish, that I'll feel a little better. I may still whine about not getting to the linen closet organizing but....

In two weeks we:

1.Saw the Monet exhibit at MFAH

2. Were in a Christmas pageant

3.Saw the new Annie movie

4. Went to see the Nutcracker at the Houston Ballet 

5. Made a Gingerbread house

6. Christmas Eve day tradition at the Museum of Natural Science

7. Christmas Eve Candlelight Service and traditions dinner of F Soup, ham sandwiches and yummy salad (and the new traditon of wearing PJs to dinner)

8. Christmas: Santa's surprise: a trampoline! Raclette for dinner and chocolate fountain for dessert

9. A hike near Nana's house

10. New Years Eve silly string fight

And things not recorded on camera:

*pantry clean out

*play dates

*shopping to spend gift cards

*closet clean out (girls)

*figuring out why our shower has been lukewarm for 2 years (and remedying it...hot shower...huzzah)

*figuing out why our washer shimmies and shakes (and remedying it)

*Date Night to see a comic at the Improv

*lots and lots of movie nights and family time
