LITTLE KITTEN FOUND A WARM SPOT

Can you guess where Little Kitten is?

She found a warm spot.

I got the clothes out of the dryer

and went to check to make sure I got them all

and this is what I found.

I always have to check the dryer before I turn it on

because she loves to climb in it...

makes me nervous.

CHRISTMAS TREE AND LIGHTS

We put our Christmas tree up this weekend.

All the animals did a good job helping.

I have pine needles everywhere

(even though it is a fake tree).

Little Kitten thinks it is great fun

to knock out all the ornaments.

I woke up several times last night

to the noise of an ornament dropping to the ground.

We also put the lights on the house.

Our neighborhood goes a bit crazy with the lights

(love it!!)

so we have to at least attempt to keep up.

TWISTER FUN

M had a playdate the other day with one of her friends.

We went to Chuck e cheeses for lunch.

They came home and played some games.

Here they are playing twister.

Of course Little Kitten decided she wanted to play too.

She turned the spinner round and round

but then tried to eat it so I sent her away.

Since I wouldn't let her turn the spinner anymore,

she decided to join the girls.

She decided it was much more fun

going under the twister mat than on top of it.

The girls thought it was hysterical that Kitten wanted to play.

Can you spot Little Kitten

DEAR SANTA

I was cleaning up

the other day and found this

note to Santa.

OK, seriously, is that not the

cUteST

thing on the planet.

MORE BIRTHDAY

M woke us up a little after

6am

to open her birthday presents.

Bleary eyed, me and hubby

sang her happy birthday

and watched her open

her mountain of presents and cards.

I bought her gifts several weeks ago

but the other day we were at the grocery store

when she saw this hat and glove animal thing that she begged for.

I told her no since her birthday and Christmas

was coming up.

However, whenever someone asked her

what she wanted for her birthday she kept mentioning it.

Yes, I know, I am a big push over

cause last night after I put her to bed

I went and bought the hat and glove thing.

Can you see how happy she was when she opened it......

totally worth the money!

We went to Farrells for dinner.

Here she is with a giant present from Monica.

The balloon guy made M an adorable monkey.

We were amazed at how easily he made

whatever the kids requested.

I swear he wasn't even looking at what he was doing

while he made them.

Yeah for ice-cream!!

BIRTHDAY GIRL

Every year I make a photo slide show

of M on her Birthday

so she can see in years to come

how much she has changed.

It is crazy to me that she is 8.

FAST ASLEEP

M is sound asleep.

I can't believe it is her birthday tomorrow.

Time seems to be speeding up.

I wish she could stay my little girl forever.

PRETTY VIEW

Had a lovely breakfast with a dear friend today.

We went for a short walk after

and this was the view...so pretty!

LUNCH AT THE HARBOR

Went to the harbor

for lunch and a walk with my sister and Dad.

Just some pics of the day.

Two cute pelicans.

Lady paddle boarding with her dog!!

Hubby holding my flowers

I liked the pattern of trees.....

round tree and then square tree

We talked to a guy who was sitting on a bench

with is 8 parrots (yes, I did say 8)

They were just hanging out

so M got to meet two of them.

Do you see what is on her head?

As you can tell from her expression,

M wasn't too sure about this.

I love how the little boy in the background is staring.

It was a lovely day!

BEACH TIME

M and I braved the water on Sunday

and went bogie boarding.

The water was

frEEzing!!!!

However, we did have a great time.

We came home and sat in a hot bath

to warm up

then my lovely hubby

made me a cup of tea too.
