High School, Early Release, and Bubble Wrap!
Thursday the high school kids got out of school at 10:20. I took them over to our grade school to help me pass out the cookie dough from the fund raiser. There was a giant pile of bubble wrap left from the packaging when we were done! SWEET! Imagine the fun we could have with that! We took it home with us and they took turns wrapping their self in it and playing bumper people! It was so funny! They were wrapped so tight that they couldn't bend, so they would just fall straight down, and have to be lifted up! It got really hot being wrapped up so they then went outside and played in the rain!

3 Years of Happiness!
Three years ago Amanda was looking online at puppies and was determined that we were going to get one. She convinced me to take her to the mall pet store to just see what "real" puppies looked like. So off to the mall Amanda and I went. We spent an hour or so just looking at and holding $2400 puppies. (Way over priced!) We then left the mall and while driving the outer loop of Arrowhead mall, we saw her! We saw a lady selling these cute little fluffy puppies. Amanda begged me to stop. I finally gave into her pleads, but told her I was not getting out of the car, and I was NOT buying a puppy! Amanda went and picked up the cutest puppy I had ever seen and brought her over to the car. She again pleaded with me, this time to P L E A S E buy this puppy! My heart was melting, and I think I secretly wanted her just as bad! The lady told Amanda that she was selling the puppies for $250, way cheaper than the $2400 puppies we had just been looking at. Between the two of us, and the cash we had in our purses,
we had exactly $250! We knew it was meant to be! We named her Kiwi Cute King!
This picture was taken the day we bought her, she was the same height as our base boards!
Amanda and Addy had a little 3rd Birthday celebration with Kiwi yesterday!

Friends and Family Home Evening
I have a childhood memory of going Christmas Caroling with friends from church and having hot chocolate and donuts after. So, last night for Family Home Evening we invited a few other families to join us for a decorated trailer ride to sing carols, and drive around looking at Christmas light displays. Then of course we enjoyed hot chocolate and donuts! We had a great time, and were happy in the end that no one fell off the trailer!
