Stringing up the lights...
Seriously though...why bother!?! I checked all my lights before I put them up and they all worked. Then I spend over an hour (two hours actually) hanging them up...I know it coulda been longer...but half of my white ones won't light!!! ArGGGHHHHH!! Which means there must be a loose one in there somewhere. Ugh. So now I have to wait till it's a little darker and then go try to figure it out. Ugh.

Our Holiday!
Well, we certainly had a nice Turkey Day. David asked Nathan why it was Thanksgiving and Nathan said it's the day we are thankful for turkeys. So, I just was wondering...why is it turkeys and not turkies? Weird. Anyways...Friday a.m. I got up early (3:30) and went to the PX b/c they were giving away $20 to the first 100 people. Heck yeah, I'll be there for $20! So Maria went with me and we made it in plenty of time and sat there freezing our bums off playing Phase 10 on the sidewalk. It was fun.
Then I came home and we packed up and drove to Atlanta. We visited with Nathan's cousin friday night and then she watched the kids Sat morning for us so we could go to the temple. It was nice. Then Sat afternoon we went downtown to the World of Coke...with the rest of the half million crazies who thought it would be fun to blow a lot of money. It was pretty nice. I can say that it was worth it cause Nathan got in for free. The best parts were the 4-D movie, that David cried through the first 5 minutes of till I would hold him on my lap, and sampling the over 60 sodas from around the world. That was enjoyable. And Sammy even behaved. We got our picture taken with Santa...as you can see, Isaac loves getting his picture taken...But we knew that already...
So that was basically our weekend. We drove back home after World of Coke and spent today decorating for Cmas. We will do the outside lights tomorrow. I am not nearly the Cmas junkie that I am for Halloween so there will just be humble little lights in our yard and that's it! We used our little cmas tree we got for $15 3 years ago as our tree. We decided we didn't really want to spend the moola on a live tree though I would have loved it. I decided to be frugal and go along with Nathan. Oh well. It is up on some boxes and so far Sammy hasn't seemed too interested. I have the feeling my luck will run out though and I should have maybe put it up higher. So, don't be surprised if I post again soon and tell all how the tree got pulled over. We won't be surprised. The lil stinker is crawling all over and even cruising along the sofa! We are in shock at how much he is doing already at only 8 months old!
Anyways...need to put kids to bed...

This may take me time...
I am not the best at self-evaluation...this may take me some time to come up with anything interesting...
I was tagged by Doug with this brand new kind of survey. So here goes.
The rules go like this:
1. List the link to your tagger and also post these following rules.
http://dougandlois.blogspot.com/
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog - some random, some weird, etc.
3. Tag 7 people at the the end of your blog also leaving the links to their blogs.
4. Let them know they are “TAGGED” by leaving a comment on their blog.
Here are my 7 random facts about me:
1. I guess I can just reitterate what I said above...I am not the best at self-evaluation. I like to think that I am not shallow but I sometimes wonder if there's really anything more to me than what's on the surface? I don't necessarily think of myself as quirky, but like to think that I may possibly be unique...? I wonder sometimes. I don't feel terribly original, most of my creative ideas are cast offs from someone else... and I often think I can be quite cynical. :P So I will try my best to accomplish this 'survey'...I may have to come back to it and update later...
2. I have never understood women who say that they just "can't keep up with the laundry." Until this week. I have always prided my self on being able to get the majority of the house cleaned in a day or two. I mean cleaned, you know, deep cleaned, not just surface... I think I am a stellar multi-tasker and can do things quite quickly. But this week I found myself losing my touch! Seems 3 kids is enough to rival me. Well, 4 kids depending on how you look at it. I find there is nothing in the world as satisfying as a clean house. But that satisfaction doesn't last long around here. If I could have one wish for Christmas, I would wish for a house elf...
3. Everytime I see my husband in uniform I wanna say, "Hello, Lutellant" and break out into my own rendition of 'Bali Hi'.
I believe I have done this once before and was given the crazy eye.
4. I love to make cakes. I know this is no surprise but it's just part of me. (and it takes up a spot on this quiz)
5. As a teenager, I used to (Okay....not many people know this...like maybe 2...till now) I used to lock myself in my bedroom and turn on the soundtracks to Phantom of the Opera or Les Mis and get out costumes and act them out, lipsync and all. I spent so many nights on the floor of my bedroom as Eponine, dying in the arms of Marius. Oh yes. Ooohh, to be on Broadway...
Occasionally I would allow this to seep out of the bedroom and Matthew and I would make music videos to certain showtunes. I wonder how Matthew would feel if I uploaded a copy of our 'Hunchback of Notre Dame' video on here....hmmmmm...that's a project for me...
6. I have a terrbile tendency of falling in love...with people who don't actually exist. I love to read, and in so doing I occasionally fall in love with a major character in the book. 3 men I absolutely love, I mean LOVE... 1. Severus Snape...I know..durh! Like that's original.....but I just totally fell for him after Deathly Hallows, such a tragic character. So sad, really. 2. Asher Lev. His story touched me in so many ways. I can't explain it. I just fell in love with him. (I've always had a thing for Jewish boys) 3. Jimmy Tock. I don't expect many people to know this character. He's from the Dean Koontz novel Life Expectancy...go read it now. Hmmm...after reading this paragraph, perhaps I just have a thing for brooding, troubled, or self-deprecating types...
7. I'm just a touch superstitious. I won't walk under ladders, I am dubious about the number 13, cringe if a black cat walks in front of me, hold my breath when I drive past cemetaries, kiss the clock and make a wish on 11:11 (or any other same-number like 5:55, etc.), and sometimes raise my feet when driving over railroad tracks. And I usually roll down my window a touch when driving over tall bridges, but that's mostly out of fear that the bridge is going to crumble at the exact moment that I am driving over it and I am going to fall to my death in the murky waters below and I must have a way of escaping the car so I have to have a little of a window open so that I'll be able to kick it out...
good enough?

Just Because
So yesterday we went to the PowWow. David has been studying Indians at school and this week he made a vest and a headband. He was supposed to get a feather for his headband for everyday he behaved at school. When he brought the headband home on Friday, there were no feathers. :( I felt bad for him but hey, that's how it goes!
Forgive me, but this is for those of you Twilight fans out there. As I was sitting at the PowWow, I was amusing myself by casting some of the Native American roles in the book! :P I am a dork... I know! It wa a little PowWow, nothing like the one in Vernal. But it was still fun for the boys to get to go to.

Awwwright.
So here's the ONLY family shot that we would have even considered. We didn't though cause we are all looking different directions...ridiculous...
Isaac....
Oh SO close!
I gotta admit, I was impressed we even managed this one...If only you knew what myself and the photogrpaher were doing to get even this hint of a smile...ok..I'll tell you...it was something like her holding a sutffed santa on her head and I was blowing it off and then we both screamed....
pictures
Here's a few.
We didn't get any singles of David cause he just had school pictures done. I will post one of those once I get it scanned...
Isaac's Near Death Experience...
How did it happen, you ask? Could it be that Isaac nearly got run over by a car in our street? No. Could it be that Isaac fell from a high place? No. Could it be that Isaac's mother and father nearly strangled the child at the portrait studio this morning because he was throwing the world's worst no-i-wont-take-my-picture-and-you-wont-make-me-and-i-wont-stop-crying-even-though-youve-promised-me-candy-toys-soda-and-mcdonalds tantrum? Yes. Most definitely.
So much for family photo day. We were there for 2...TWO...flipping hours and have NOT ONE family shot to show for it. Not ONE! We have a few shots of the boys but that's it. And Isaac is not even remotely smiling. Ugh. Seriously. It was so stressful. Nathan wanted to blow a fuse and suffice it to say that I did. I guess I will have to edit my list below to say that I most definitely have the worse temper. OOOhhhhh he made me so mad.
Anyways....
On a lighter note...we went to the National Peanut Festival in Dothan on Saturday. Those things are such money traps. David wanted to play carnival games but we wouldn't cause they're ridiculously expensive and you never win anything. But we let the boys ride a few rides and we got some boiled peanuts and shelled nuts, and cinnamon nuts, and pralines and I think I'm nutted out. I would have to say that the highlight was when David said he wanted to ride the "Super Slide" so we gave him his tickets and he climbed to the top with his potato sack and then chickened out at the top. So Nathan paid his two tickets to go up and try to convince him which resulted in a tantrum at the top of the Super Slide where all of creation could see (and many were enjoying actually) and then Nathan eventually plopping David physically down onto one of the potato sacks, sitting next to him on his own and having David claw at him to get him up and him pulling David down the slide next to him. All the while David is screaming and lying on his back. sigh.
I'm pretty tired.

The video is actually much longer but we condensed it to show you the perks. Watch how he hovers then does what we call the "Parallel Park".
Cool stuff...Sorry you have to click on the link. Can't seem to get my videos to embed...
Oh, he's number 52A.
Sammers!!
Wow! Today Sammy decided to crawl!! He has been threatening to crawl for just a few days and today he actually did it! He's not even 8 months old yet!! And he clapped too!!!! :)

Long...
Forgive me...this will be long...I have a lot to catch up on (It's mostly pics)!
Children of the Durned...Heehee!
Ok...so I'll start earlier this week. We found out who won the yard contest...not me. In fact, There were 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places and 2 honorable mentions and I didn't even get that. Not to be... you know...proud or anything, but we went and looked at the ones that won and realized we were robbed. In fact, several people who came to our house all this week said the same thing..."What?? Not even Honorable Mention?" The concensus from all our neighbors was that you must have had to register and I didn't. How dumb is that? :( So much hard work and sweat went into that yard! We were most definitely robbed. The pics just don't do it justice...sorry my rant.
So Halloween, we made a Haunted House between our drivewa and our neighbors! Had our hubbies on the rooves tying up tarps and everything. Very fun and the kids enjoyed it. David and Isaac cleaned up! Filled both their candy buckets and Sammy's half full. I was pushing them around this neighborhood though! They were beat and I wasn't letting up! :) So much fun! David was a vampire and Ike Ike said he was a ghost but wouldn't wear the costume so I just painted his face. :P Sammy was Harry Potter. I only have a pic of David until I get some film developed tomorrow so that'll have to do for now!
Then, yesterday I took down the yard. Not nearly as hard as putting it together.
Today was Family Day for Nathan's class. It's the only time that we as families get to actually see them fly close up during the training period. It was catered and very nice but Nathan has been moved to a different class and was 2 hours late flying in so the boys were having meltdowns by the time he got there. But we got to see him fly and I will be posting video of that soon!!
Anywho...
Mom is here visiting. We're calling it therapy. :) Her 2 friends from Nashville are driving down to see her tonight for the weekend since she's close.
So here's pics of Family Day until I can upload video!!
