We had a fun day of making cookies. Cayla & Kylie & me really enjoyed decorating the cookies. Kylie really go in to it, along with the water from the frig button! She also tried to read the directions for Mema J! We did not do a lot today, but have them baked to finish decorating another day. Mema J is tired! But want to make memories for Kylie!

When you have a grandchild it makes Christmas fun all over again! They will make you get your halls decked! A few of my favorite things!

Our Church Christmas party was Sunday night after church. Kylie had been at her other families house for the weekend. She got home early today so we thought we would go on to church. When Casey opened the door & she was crying should have been the first indication of what was to come. We got dressed, made some food & headed out. OH boy, she was so exhausted that she was crying about anything and everything!!!! We did attend the party for a short time. When it got time for Santa, she had acted up so bad that we just had to go! That baby was so exhausted. All I can say is that we did try, and tortured ourselves in the process! She is usually so good, but as of late she really needs a nap sometime during the day! I did get a couple of pictures .

Winston and I took off to the golf course around 3:30 and got in a few holes of golf. I had not played in so long, well....it was not pretty, but it was funny!!! We had a great time!

• This is the conversation between Cayla and Kylie a few minutes ago! Cayla did not have class today.

• Kylie: CaCa, Are you going to school today?

• CaCa: No

• Kylie: Why not?

• CaCa: I quit.

• Kylie: You can't quit CaCa.

• CaCa: Why?

• Kylie: Because all those people will be mad at you.

• CaCa: Why?

• Kylie: Cause you can't be stupid.

• CaCa: Laughing!!!!!

• Kylie: CaCa, you can't show them your stupid!

Happy Birthday Winston!

 

Happy Birthday Winston, Papa, Daddy!!! Winston's birthday is Sunday. We celebrated early since we are going to be out of town. We usually are on his birthday. He doesn't like a big production on his special day. But this year Kylie knows all about birthday's & we could not just let it pass without celebrating it. She has been asking about it and wanted to have a cake! Cayla made the birthday supper, salad and up-side-down-pizza, it was so good!!! We were in town most of the day so we did not have much time to prepare, we also had not planned on going to Destin this weekend. Friends of ours offered us their condo for free! Thanks Murphy's!!! So the party was a spur of the moment...like most everything we do!! Check out the spelling on the cake, or is it just me? We also did not have any candles, so I just put one big ole candle in it...Kylie did not know what to think of the candle...nor did her Papa, but it served the purpose!!! We will leave tomorrow for our annual shopping trip if Grandma Wisenbaker is o:k! Be sure & remember her in your prayers!

Well, we had to buy a new mattress. We were not thrilled about this due to--- we had just bought a pillow top a few years ago! It was so comfy...to begin with, we loved it! We did turn the pillow top, 1/4 turn, but it must not have been enough! It does take more than 1 or 2 people to turn it as well! Both of us have a problem with our hip....it comes out of place & you don't know it until it hurts, & is sore! I could not take it any more!!!! I made myself go shopping for one! Winston would not go, of course! (Cayla & I went...I told her I would buy her lunch! She loves to eat out!) I really needed her to go so she could lay on the other side & see if I could tell when she got in & out of the bed!Ha! I am a very light sleeper...light, noise, movement.....not fun, for me or Winston! We laid on a few & narrowed it down to 2. I can not say I really like it...it is very firm! The good thing is.....our hips are supported & we both agree they feel better, I think! Did I say I hate to shop for a mattress, it's as much torture as shopping for a swim suit! Ugh!!!!

Trimming the Tree

 

We got our tree up early this year...probably a record. We must give credit to Cayla, she has really been on the ball. She got the tree & the trimmings down. She also stung lights outside in the trees, but we have so many we kept blowing fuses...need an electrician, a whole other story! Kylie had a good time taking the ornaments on & off the tree!!! We have a ornament with a basketball goal, another just basketball ornament. She took the basketball & set it in the basket of the other ornament and said, yea we win! She is so excited. Cayla wrapped some gifts and when Kylie woke up she thought Santa had come...she also opened one that was in a bag....Aunt CaCa took the presents to the attic...she is no fun!
