Christmas 2007

Wo, how can it really be over? Amazing!

Some memories:

Justin and Sarah got Magnastixs last night. Justin was so upset b/c "They aren't safe for Sarah!" He was fine once we explained that it is the small magnetix that we don't like. But that was so great that he was so concerned.

Justin gave Sarah the pony "Skywishes." He had kept seeing the commercials and telling me that I had to put it on Sarah's list. Well, a week and a half ago, he yelled for me and was so excited "Mommy! Sarah needs Skywishes. She will love it. That is what I want to give her!" How could I resist? So, that night I looked for it since I was going to the mall to return something else anyway. They had 2 on the bottom shelf. Cool, right? Nope - AWESOME! When I got to the register the cashier was shocked that I found one. He told me that everyone is looking for them and that they are so hard to get ahold of. Go me!! So this morning Justin gave it to Sarah and she loved it! So cute. But the best part was really how happy it made Justin!

Sarah gave Justin the Care Bear dvd "Journey to Joke-a-lot." Both kids are Care Bear junkies right now and Justin keeps seeing the commercials for it on the old videos. He was so happy to get it. And tonight when I was talking to Sarah about it, she said "Mommy, he likes the song so much!" And she's right. That was the part he liked!

Too many presents. Too much paper! Too much cardboard!

They both got dress up clothes but didn't really get into that until around 5:30 pm. We finally gave them the dress up trunks from Grammy. OMG! So much fun. They played dress up for the next hour. They were so cute! Justin loved being a fireman, a policeman and a pirate. Loved it! And Sarah was a fairy and then a pirate. lol And they rode their new ride-on toys the whole time. I hope my pictures came out good.

Disney made a lot of money from me again this year with Sarah getting every Mickey Mouse Clubhouse toy and Justin being a Cars junkie!

Justin was so excited to see that the Reindeers had eaten his reindeer food and his carrots. And they messed up the snow and got some on the driveway!!!!!!

I thought they were lying...

Mick took Justin to see Nemo on ice today. We didn't tell him, we just surprised him. Mick called me during intermission and Justin wanted to talk to me. He got on the phone and was so excited! "We're seeing Nemo mommy! It's on ice. I saw commercials on tv, but I thought they were lying!" So, so funny!

I wanna go Boat!

I totally forgot about this, but definitely want to remember this!

Justin loves to go and Vote on Election day. We vote at the Rescue squad right near our house, so we just walk down the street. Usually my parents drive to our house and walk with us. This year they were in Florida though.

So, Justin was all excited. Sarah too. We went down the street. Justin took a snack, of course. Sarah couldn't have one b/c everything was chocolate.

Mick brought Justin into the booth with him and lt Justin pull all the levers. We live in a small town. Everything was uncontested. lol

Sarah went into the booth with me.

Then we left. That is when the tears started. Sarah was besides herself b/c she though we were going to go on Grampy's boat, not to vote. I can see how she made the mistake, but OMG, there was no consouling her! Poor girl.
