Tanner...what can I say?

One of these days he's totally going to embarrass me - in the grocery store, or church, or school - but for now, when it's at home - it's just down right funny:

Tanner and Dad are sitting on the couch, each at opposite ends.

Tanner: Dad, do you smell any gas?
Dad: No.
Tanner: I do.
Tanner moves right next to Dad.
Tanner: Dad, do you smell gas now?
Dad: Yes.....(gross look on his face)
Tanner: I farted (evil grin and laugh)

I blame his father.

Ringing in 2009...

...ok, more like whispering in 2009. Our New Year's Eve proved quite uneventful and very quiet! We didn't even watch the ball drop! I was actually in bed reading (an awesome book, btw!) when 2008 became 2009. Jeremy was at the kitchen table working on his laptop and said, Happy New Year, to which I replied, Happy New Year. We didn't even kiss. LOL We're so old. Or maybe we're just boring.

We usually do up New Years here in our home - and this year, while maybe more subdued, we still had a good time! Yesterday, we munched on Rice Krispie treats shaped into flowers, butterflies, circles, teddy bears, stars and hearts. We also had quesadillas...mmmmm...
The kids each received two shirts/sweaters this year. Hunter got a Star Wars Clone Wars long sleeve tee and zip hoodie. Tanner got a Star Wars Clone Wars long sleeve tee and Alvin & the Chipmunks long sleeve tee (Tanner LOVES Alvin & the Chipmunks movie!). Lizzie got a sparkly pink sweater w/ hood and a Tinkerbell long sleeve tee. (can you tell I love long sleeve tees?) Today, Daddy surprised us by getting Hunter a Remote Control monster truck, Lizzie an Easy Bake Oven and Tanner a giant mac truck with hot wheels type cars and a new Indiana Jones sword! It's been fun!! We also surprised the kids with movie tickets to Disney's Bedtime Stories. A fun, CLEAN movie!

All in all - a great start to the New Year!!!
Happy New Year to all!!
