I'm taking the Pinterest Photo a Day Challenge.  Today's Photo is "MY VIEW".. I thought maybe I'd take a view from our front porch… then I thought maybe I'd just take a view of what I can see where I am sitting.  The view from my front porch is better than this..

Here's what's in front of me.  My laptop, sunglasses, scissors, birthday card, iced tea (not much ice in it), Star Wars light up candy light sabers, #4's MP# player, USB Cord, back scratcher, and my Chumby (that needs a new plug)

To the right of me is this kid #5.  He woke up last night not feeling so good.

To the left of me is this kid.. #2.. He's working.  Please ignore the mess behind him AND that we have not taken all of our Christmas junk down.  Most of it is down.. we just have a few stragglers here and there. 

I can't hardly believe this little muffin is 11 months old today.

He didn't care so much about his Christmas presents.  He really liked

the paper and the boxes.

Happy Birthday #6!

I love Seinfeld. I never watched it much when it was on regular TV… but we watch it every night now. If you are a Seinfeld fan, you'll know that yesterday December 23.. was Festivus….

Festivus starts with a non-holiday comfort food.

We chose pizza. I made 4 different pizzas. We had Canadian bacon,

a thin all meat, pepperoni.. and a deep dish all meat with sweet

onions on top. After or during the meal there is the "airing of

grievances". This is where each person tells everyone else

all the ways they have disappointed them over the past year.

After the non-traditional meal, there is the "Feats of Strength". This is where

people challenge the head of household in a wrestling match. It ends when

the head of the household is pinned. You can get out of challenging the

head of household ..if you have something better to do.

The only people that would challenge the head of household

this year was #4 and #5. It didn't go so well for them. The

head of household was not pinned… It was a FESTIVUS MIRACLE!

Monday evening #3 and #4 were in a Christmas Dance Pageant.

Here's #5.. he wasn't in the dance, but thought he should wear

his "Link" (Legend of Zelda) Costume and his "Woody" hat.

Here's the FULL effect of the costume. I know what you are saying..

"How could she let her kid out of the house in that outfit?" All I can

say is.. "It was a weak moment."

#4 auditioned for his part as a cow. He's a pretty cute cow huh?

Here's #3 as an angel. She is signing to "O' Little Town of Bethlehem".

I love this photo of #4.. He's such a cute angel!

Hark the Herald Angels Sing!

#3 was an Angel too..

Here she is as a wise man. Bringing her gift to baby Jesus.

#4 was a dancing shepherd.

A whole mess of shepherds!

#3 did an AWESOME tap dance to Little Drummer Boy…

my photos aren't very good.. of her dance.
