Christmas Decorations

The girl and her Browne troop decorated a tree in a downtown park today. They made the ornaments last week. They had sequined balls and colored bells. I would have taken a picture of the finished tree, but my battery died. It was really cute.

Next week, her troop walks in a local Christmas parade.

Play Offs

The boy played his flag football play off games last Sunday. It was pouring down rain. The kids were troopers. They played for over three hours in the rain. Though, if I am being honest I think the parents and siblings were a lot more miserable than the players. They had fun. Luckily, we had a brought a beach umbrella for them to huddle under between plays. I didn't get any action shots, as I didn't want the camera to get wet.

This is the boy a little after 7:00 that night. He was wiped out! Though, even in his sleep he doesn't let go of his favorite book series. We just picked the last books in the series up today from the library. We will have to find a new series soon. Maybe he will revisit the 'Magic Tree House' series. I really like those books.

Advent Wreath

It has been busy and I have been lax in my blog posts. So, in my normal style I am going to inundate you with a bunch of random things that have been going on lately. If your lucky, I might even throw in a comma or two in my run on sentences!

The girl and I went to the advent wreath making class at church with some friends. It was fun and the girls made the wreaths for their families. I think the girl did a pretty good job. Note to self, put away the Thanksgiving decorations.
