Random

 After our dear friends left, we had the rest of the weekend to recover as a family and prepare for the Christmas season.  I did not take any of our Christmas stuff from back home, so this year we had to decorate with crafts, candy, and ornaments from Target's dollar section.
The kids did a spectacular job!

 Carter and Taylor have been participating in their first basketball camp at the local YMCA.
Carter is super excited and takes it very seriously.  Taylor does very well, but is embarrassed because she is the only girl in the class.
 It is hilarious to watch a bunch of 4-6 year old dribble....there are balls everywhere!




 The kids have been working on completing a bed time chart for several months now.  The kids had been having some big issues:  coming down after we say good-night, talking too much at bedtime, and coming into our bed during the night.  So in effort to use positive reinforcement, we started a chart.  
Taylor and Hailey completed theirs last week and chose to each get a bean bag from a local place called "Yoggibo"  and poor Carter has a ways to go because he continues to sneak in our bed sometime in the early morning hours.
