Monday December 30

Today I felt very unaccomplished!

Even though I did get lots of stuff done, you look around the house, it doesn't look like it at all.

That always frustrates me!

But I got most of Christmas stuff packed up.

There are a few more lingering things.....

I planned to get a lot of cleaning done today, since we are having visitors (my bro and his family) in a couple days.

But I spent a lot of time on the phone with the dumb satellite people because our TV was doing weird stuff.

Too bad I couldn't throw it out the window!

Anyway, so as I did get cleaning done, another room was getting torn apart by crazy kiddos.

Cassi was gone for a lot of the day at her friend Kata's house.

And Madi spent her day on the sewing machine, which made me smile a lot :)

She made another little doll and she also made herself a scripture bag for church.

It turned out really good.

She did it with no pattern too.

She takes after me.....I am so bad at following patterns!

Anyway, so I didn't make the kids do much today but I had them promise me that they would help me to really get things clean tomorrow.

They both agreed.

So we will see......

Porter and Cassi played with Legos this evening.

I do love Legos'

I love Porters concentration when he builds with them.

And I can never get enough of that kids profile.

So darn cute :)

*****

Dad got to do some ice diving today.

He goes back out tomorrow too.

He does love what he does.

I guess that is a pretty good thing, cause there aren't many people who would love doing that. :)
