  • Dad was in Charleston for his uncle’s funeral this morning so he spent the night in Clarksville with Uncle Les last night.  When the kids went to bed, they really didn’t understand why Dad wasn’t here and then Anderson got it and was pretty ticked that he wasn’t staying in a hotel too.
  • Belle barked quite a bit last night and while everyone was trying to get ready this morning, Mom realized that Belle had spent the night on the back deck in the playhouse.  She had also eaten a diaper some time during the night.  Mom cleaned up the mess and put her back in her yard and ran back in to finished getting everyone ready.
  • Graham was the first one up and he didn’t mind at all getting his clothes on before getting back in Mom’s bed for his milk.  Campbell was next and Mom dressed that squirmy thing pretty quickly.  Next was Anderson who woke up in a good mood followed by Reagan.  We were dressed and ready in time to have breakfast downstairs-Mom couldn’t believe she did it all by herself.
  • Nonna came by to pick up Anderson and Reagan to take them to school.  Reagan walked right in and signed in and then Nonna walked into the hall and couldn’t find Anderson.  Ms Stacy said that maybe he went to class and Nonna then had to ask where his class was.  He was in there working a puzzle. 
  • Mom on the other side of town was dropping of Graham and Campbell.  Campbell didn’t seem to mind Mom leaving but you could probably hear Graham outside of the building.  Mom became worried that they are going to kick him out of school!  Thought when she picked him up, she asked if he was good.  His teacher said “Graham, he is always great.”  Mom replied with “Graham Dennie?”
  • Nonna had picked up Reagan and Anderson and by the time Mom picked up Graham and Campbell, Dad was home and glad to see everyone.  He unpacked and then we went to Nonna’s house to look at Pops new computer.
  • When we came home, even though it was dark and freezing, we decided to put up our Santa and Christmas Thomas the Train.  It probably would have been easy in the daylight but not tonight!  The kids helped some and then they became bored and went inside to play.
  • Reagan did get so cold that she got her pants a tiny bit wet.  Dad told her to go in and change-he just meant her pants.  But she came back out in new pants, shirts, boots, even a different jacket and head band.  What a princess!
  • Finally, we did get the inflatables blown up and we are now the most decorated house on the block (some may say tackiest!)….just wait to we get the lights up!
