Dennie Kids: December 18, 2009

Highlights from today: (click here for pictures)

• Anderson waking up ready to help Dad with their project for the day: putting our new train around the Christmas tree.  Everyone was lots of help and gave Dad lots of advice.  Mom spent her time trying to distract all of Dad's help
  
• Grandpa and Grannymom dropping by with some candy for us to eat while Grandpa played with the train too
• But the train never really worked right so we will have to send it back.  The kids really didn't care though Anderson keeps saying "I wish, I wish the coaches would have worked" or "Maybe, maybe we can get another one"-but I think Santa bought a kid friendly battery operated Thomas for their train tracks this afternoon
• Running a few errands and having lunch at McDonalds-Reagan picked out our booth (in the sun) but she was very proud of her choice.  Graham falling asleep during our errands but Mom woke him up to take him inside of one place just so he could nap with everyone else
• Long afternoon naps and then supper out with Nonna and Pops (Dad was at another Christmas party-he is a social butterfly)
• Coming back home and playing hide-n-seek with Nonna and then watching a movie with Pops before bedtime-they even stayed long enough to tuck us in
• Graham trying to convince Pops to get him some candy or milk but Mom wouldn't let Pops-Graham was pulling on Pops' hand while smiling a mischievous smile at Mom
  
• Dad coming home and getting Anderson and Reagan out of bed to give them a cookie (last night, he got them out of bed to give them another drink)
