Work Christmas Party



We had a great Christmas party this year! It is becoming our family tradition to have one of our children scream bloody murder when he meets Santa. This year it was Mr. William...the last two years it was James. It is a toss up for next year!

Eclipse


And the winner is...Eclipse!!! Twilight...good; New Moon...better; Eclipse...BEST!! I could not put this one down and really loved it. I am sad that it is all over now. If you haven't read them yet, you need to start!

Piano Recital



I just had my first piano recital as a teacher last weekend. (These guys didn't get to participate in it just yet). I have 5 students right now and think that keeps me busy enough. They all did so well. I held it at the piano gallery, which allowed them to play on grand pianos on a stage. It was pretty fun for me!

The Parenting Breakthrough



Okay, I'm on a little reading kick right now. I go through one about twice a year. This book had some great suggestions on how to teach your kids how to work. It includes ideas for how to manage allowances, chores, and teach kids to be more independent. I would recommend it if you have a 5 yr old or older. I'll reread it in a few years.

New Moon



I decided to post some books that I have been reading as I finish them. I just finished New Moon and liked it better than Twilight. If you can tap into your dramatic, adolescent side then you will love them!

Weeyam's Yummy Yunch!



William is so much fun! He is so happy and sweet. We've nicknamed him Mr. Sunshine because he is happy most of the time and smiles a lot. He is just about walking and loves chasing after James. He'll love it more when he can keep up!
