Santa & the Easter Bunny

Parker hasn't sat on Santa's lap in a couple of years. Santa still has this unknown feeling of being with a "stranger", and Parker was okay to go up to him and talk but, not really sit on his lap and linger awhile like a lot of children.

However, this year was different. A gentle Santa coaxed him to sit awhile and chat.
They talked about the reindeer's, toys and gifts and whether or not he had been a good boy.

Parker told Santa that he and the Easter Bunny were the Best!

Darn Weiner!

We recently did a Gingerbread house with a friend of mine and her daughter, Molly. We purchased extra candies to create our Gingerbread House and decor! The kids had so much fun creating, and our "house" is complete with a garden and a football field.

Our dog also liked the Gingerbread house too!!!!!!!!! Yes, we "allowed" our weiner dog, Chuck, to stay loose in the house while we were at church. (one Hour max) and when we got home....there were some pieces missing on the Gingerbread house.....both footballs were missing!! Parker's favorite thing is the footballs!

I just could not figure out where they would have gone!!!! I was seriously thinking we had a major critter in the house!!!! But NO! Later, we saw the culprit in action! Chuckles, can jump up on a chair, if that chair isn't fully pushed in up to the table, and then he jumps from the chair to the table. Yep, helped himself to a little Scooby Snack! Thank God! I was seriously thinking Rat!! What will I do with this dog?? :) Our dog, Charlie.
