Christmas Decor

I really love Christmas, the baking, parties, and decorating. That being said I really don't like spending a fortune on decorating our house, but Shawn convinced me that it would be perfectly fine to spend a little bit of money to have more decorations. So I looked on pinterest found a wreath I liked and one other thing and headed over to Michael's to get my supplies. I love that I can make what I want and for at least half as much as buying it. Someday I'll but things just not now. Anyways I really like how they turned out and our house is much more festive this year, its great.

Here's the wreath. I love projects that only require a little bit of hot glue.

And no I didn't make the stockings just the JOY letters above but I love them just the same.

Funky Sayings

When I asked Graham who was in charge today he raised his hand and said, "me"
As I was putting Graham down for a nap he looked up and said, "Me not tired EVER." Nice try.
On the way home from a mother/son activity I was asking Devin a few questions and I guess he had enough because he finally said, "Mommy can you not talk to me right now?"
When Shawn walked passed the kids coloring today he overheard Devin say, "I"m coloring a machine and it poops, and poops." Boys will be boys I guess.
Caroline says to me today, "How about we go shopping just the two of us while dad is on vegitation." Me, "You mean vacation?" Caroline, "Oops, yeah."
Yesterday Caroline asked if Graham was made of plastic. In response Devin said, "No he's made of boy."
As we were sitting down to enjoy some chocolate chips Devin said, "I like chocolate chips, they make me feel good."
Devin was in his room for a time out. When I opened the door to talk to him he ran over slammed the door in my face and said, "I'm not ready to talk yet." He's good at expressing his feelings.
A few days ago when I called Devin by his full name (Devin Michael) he looked at me and said, "No me Michael, me Devin." He's funny.
When I told Devin he needed to share his toy with Caroline he replied, "But I love it." Apparently he thought that meant he didn't have to share it. Sorry kid.
