Mom's Birthday Trip to St. Augustine

Well, we successfully surprised Mom on thursday for her birthday. She had no clue we were coming and was in shock when she saw us. We went to St Augustine for a girls trip and had a blast. Shopping and good food..what else could a girl want! I made it back safely to Arkansas and found Ft Smith to be covered in ice. Hopefully it will start melting before I have to go out to run errands. The babies are in Georgia being spoiled and having a blast. I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and I'm sure I will have lots of Christmas pics to share!

Caught Red Handed!

My kiddos are constantly making me laugh. Hagan just follows Emma's lead which is a little scary. The other day Jason and I heard the kids making noises in our pantry. We were like "what are they doing in there?". We walked in and they had the bag of Honey Nut Cheerios on the floor and they were steady eating them. Emma would grab a handful and give part of them to Hagan and they were chowing down. We couldn't help but laugh! Today I picked Emma up at school and we were on the way home and she was wanting me to stop and get her something. I told her no we needed to go home and she said "Why cause you don't have any money?" I died laughing and said yes honey that's exactly right! I swear I need to buy a journal and write down every funny thing she says. Our Elf, Powkli, has been steadily reporting to the North Pole each night and I think he is going to have a bad report tonight although I think Emma might have him talked out of telling Santa. She hit Hagan today so I went over to Powkli and told him to go tell Santa that Emma was very ugly today and she doesn't need any presents for Christmas. She started crying and said "I am really sorry for hitting Hagan and I'll be a sweet girl Powkli." I think Powkli is a sucker and might not tell Santa.
