Posted on September 5, 2014 Leave a Comment
Sennet earned his very first allowance for helping at the duplex. HE worked really hard and raked, clipped bushes, swept the sidewalks and even pulled huge branches into a pile. He really earned this cash and for now likes to help- so we let him when we can. and a transformer, because why not?

Christmas was pretty laid back at our house- just the way we like it. Before Sennet, Kevin and I went to a movie on Christmas day and usually even on Christmas eve. Thanksgiving seems to be the holiday that I make the huge spread and have friends over, etc. Christmas has never been a big […]

When we got our Elf on the Shelf last year, we had been watching The Incredibles non-stop and Sennet was only three, so Mr. Incredible Elf was an obvious name choice. This year, now that Sennet is all grown, he thinks that Mr. Incredible Elf is a stupid name. You can look at the last […]

There were lots of favorites this year, a basketball hoop for his bedroom, legos, puzzles, etc and the pilot suit was right up there as a huge hit.

We started The Elf on the Shelf tradition this year and Sennet loves it. We love it too because we can remind him that Mr Incredible Elf (that is the name Sennet gave him because he is obsessed with The Incredibles) is watching him and he better not be naughty or Mr Incredible will tell […]

It is hard to not realize what a special gift it is to be able to take your child to visit Santa when so many innocent children were shot to death while they were at school today. I was wondering how many of those children had not visited Santa yet- maybe their families had plans […]
