Our Weekend

Our Saturday started out by going to Home Depot. Daddy usually takes Katherine and helps make the kid's workshop project. Well this week Daddy was on call and couldn't go. So in Katherine's words... " We'll use Girl Power". So Mom and Katherine made the art easel. We then went home to change clothes and run to the elementary school fundraiser at Mr. Gatti's Pizza. The fundraiser was getting pictures with Santa. Santa was late! Very late! This is the photo we waited forever to get. Katherine wouldn't talk to Santa. When I asked her why she said that's not the real Santa. The real Santa is at Bass Pro Shops. However with this photo I got the photographers release to print however many copies I wanted. We then had to go back home grab some stuff and run over to my parents home to help them get ready for their annual Christmas open house. Here are a couple of photos of our (Katherine and I) contribution... we decorated the 9' Christmas Tree. We had a wonderful time visiting with family and friends. Danny's sister, who was in town from Mississippi, and his mother were able to come. Katherine was so excited. She loved opening the door for the guests and getting to eat whatever she wanted. The marshmallows and pretzels by the chocolate fountain were her favorite. It was a very long day but at the end we were glad we jam packed everything in.
