This past week

The littlest Ohio State fan with the biggest Ohio State fan, who is momentarily fighting a cold, in Mississippi.

Newest sister and brother picture.

Smiling a little

Wondering why he is always having his picture taken.

This past week has been rather busy for our family. Guy had to administer his semester exams. Mabry had her last week of school until January. Mabry's last week included a party where all the kids exchange presents in a white elephant fashion. Tuesday, Mabry's Daisy Scout troop went caroling around the Holly Springs square. They were so adorable and out of tune!! When they got back to the office, they inhaled the snacks and collapsed from exhaustion on the floor. On Friday, I had to run to Oxford to take care of some errands. Mabry opted to go visit her favorite sitter, Ms. Karita, who also had a Christmas party with the kids. Gabe will start seeing Ms. Karita every day beginning January 7th when I have to unfortunately return to work. Yesterday, I decided to channel my mother again. I made a batch of peanut brittle and a few dozen chocolate truffles. Today, I have already made another batch of peanut brittle and a loaf of banana bread. I plan to also bake some chocolate chip cookies and another batch of sugar cookies. Thank goodness that these goodies will not be in the house for long since they are definitely not good for my diet!!
