Out of the mouth of babes...

comes some very unusual stuff.  Heard in our house this evening:
(about Cinderella's fairy godmother) "She disappeared." "Yeah, because she's magic, like the tooth fairy!"

"I want to be Cinderella because she doesn't have to go potty!"

Christmas 2010 - The Beginning

We started our Christmas season off with a trip to see the Apex Christmas Parade last night.  We like attending this even when we didn't live in Apex and we especially wanted to go now that we live here.  The downside of the parade is that it is the only parade that I know of in our area that is at night and it can be COLD.  Last night, by some crazy fluke, it was actually SNOWING.  It doesn't generally snow here until January and February.  Here we are all bundled up to watch.

 

In keeping with the Christmas spirit for the weekend, we decked the halls today.  Our traditional family trip to pick out a Christmas tree lasted exactly 2 minutes as the wind had started up and it was maybe 40 degrees at 12:30.  Overall, I think we did a nice job this year.

Merry Christmas!
