A great Saturday!

This last Saturday we decided to take Ella to see Santa!

and invited Grandma to come along!

The daughter brought me flowers from outside!

(( actually a stick with dried leaves, but who cares, she is so nice ))

she's asking for a swing set!
Although it was a little cold.. there was no line and FREE!
and they let you take your own pictures!

yes... I'm always trying to take a picture!

ohh and Santa gave her a candy cane!

After Santa, we head to the

mall for a little shopping!

another great night with Phaeton!

We were lucky enough to have another sleep over with

Phaeton!

Mr Phaeton!

My Kobee!

Kobee won a school contest and I was so proud of him.

He is growing up so fast.. some days I cant get enough of him

and other days

I want to spank him and put him in the corner for hours!

He wont kiss me in public.

so I felt pretty lucky to have gotten this picture with him!

His ribbon...
