Happy Birthday Olivia (and more)

Today, has been a bit of a bust. The idea was to get a lot done downstairs now that Mr. White is back home, but that doesn't seem to be the case. We were all a bit slow moving (from lack of sleep) this morning, and by the time we got moving it was time to go to Eielson.

Nick had his first junior varsity high school basketball at Eielson Air Force Base (60 mile round trip) against the Ravens. Here he's taking a shot. (He tried to get my high school #32, but there wasn't one so he took the next closest. Isn't that sweet?!)

This is such a big deal to me because my brothers, nieces, nephews and myself were ball players. None of our kids really have been so to have a high school player is so cool!
Final score: We won! :)

Here was the temperature at the school...


Today, is Olivia's Happy 4th Birthday. Her party has been postponed until next Sunday. With Mr. White gone all week it was more than I had the energy to put together. We let her open her present from Granma Claudia and Papa Doug.



Granma made Olivia and her new baby doll matching ponchos and scarves.
She thought that was pretty cool.

So there you have it. That's all we accomplished today! Pathetic. Elijah's riding his BMX bike at Joel's Place with his friend Nelson, and Dad is about to pick the boys up from Birch Hill where they got in a half-day of snowboarding after the game. I'm on my butt on the computer, and the Wee People are writing Christmas cards and plastering them with stickers. I guess it is good to do nothing once-in-awhile, but I REALLY want my house done! Ah, there is always tomorrow. I hear my Netflix movies calling me! :)
