Is it Real?


Have your kids ever asked if something is 'REAL'?
Have you had to deal with this yet? And what did you do???

Debany has begun to ask if certain things are real... like fairies, santa claus, tooth fairy, etc. She's trying to get a grasp on reality lately. Myanna still believes -- and we're trying to figure out how to go about helping one get a grasp on reality and let the other keep on believing until they're ready. The magic of childhood, ya know.

I've been planning on pulling Debany aside and reading the history of Santa Claus. What do you think?!

Lil' Momma D

We invited some friends over for dinner, and they had a little kid.
Debany decided to help take care of him, 'the baby', while the adults chatted.

So, here's our lil' momma:

Our Lil' Homie 'P'

It's Homie 'P'!
We were driving to go look at houses, and it was cold!
He he hee, I turned around and saw Porter and had to take a picture.
Too funny!

Fun at Lowe's!

Lately, Dane and I have taken to dreaming in Lowe's and Home Depot!

The kids, well, they tolerate it -- as long as they have some fun 'toys' like these:

Date Night at the Rink

So Dane & I went out to dinner at a local Mexican restaurant,
and then went ice skating!
Jenn in figure skates...
Dane honoring his hockey team in hockey skates!

What a nice surprise! And the price for skating was perfect... Free!
Let's go again!
