Merry Christmas!

If you didn’t get a Christmas Card is was probably because I didn’t have your address. So to all of you whom I love but don’t know you well enough to have you in the address book (or the few of you who move constantly) here’s what it looked like.

Turbulent Times

Well for like the tenth time in a row the house I wanted got a bid put on it seconds before I was ready to place a bid myself. Then the boys decided to take turns waking me up every hour for the past two nights. I woke up this morning to the sound of Vlad peeing what had to be a liter in his crate. Micah tried to replace a leaking bathtub faucet last night and it ended up being so corroded that if busted all the pipes behind the wall and he had to pull out the vanity in the opposite bath and cut away the walls to replace. We have now been without running water for 19 hrs. I had to take the kids over to the neighbors for a family shower…awkward! We are leaving tomorrow to go to Penn. and then Maine and we have no clean cloths, I can’t do dishes, and my bathroom vanity is in the middle of my bedroom. We found out that the support beam beneath the boys room is drenched due to a gutter problem, I think this means no one will EVER by our house.

Merry Christmas! Fa la la la la   La la la…CRAP!

But this makes me happy!

Cutest Kids Ever

My sweet tolerant Vlad

And he shall be called…

Vladamir…he looks like he could be Russian, right?

The Newest Needham

After months of looking we finally found the perfect little guy to add to the clan. He’s awesome! He doesn’t bark, only had one accident in the house ( and it was our fault), sleeps in the crate, and is the cuddliest thing I ever seen. I’d say that’s pretty darn good for a 9wk old pup. He’s a standard poodle so he’ll be the size of a Golden (70-80lbs).

The only problem has been trying to decide on a name…impossible.
