When I was in my Elf on a Shelf craze I came across a blog post: "Over Achieving Elf on the Shelf Mommies". While some of my friends probably would have called me that, I wasn't as crazed as some other people I knew or from other ideas I'd seen on the internet, which is why I found so much humor in her blog post.
The title of her blog is "People I Want to Punch in the Throat". Her blog is meant to be a joke: funny and satirical. She even says, "You don't have to take me seriously, because I don't take myself seriously."
Her latest post is called:
Rules for Parents with Daughters I found this list of rules so very true and made me realize how thankful I am to have a Mom who taught me said things.
Here are some {cell phone} photos from around Christmas time! I'm excited to say that I got a new point and shoot for Christmas so I hope to have lots more photos to share with you all!
We took Grace to see the Christmas lights over in Windsor. There were lots of them...
More photos of Lola...
Jenn and I took Grace and Lilley to see the Nutcracker...
Dec 4: Lola made a new friend (Buzz) and they were hanging out on top of the lamp.
Dec. 5: Lola and the reindeer
Dec. 6: Lola is good! She knew we were heading to Raleigh that day and didn't want to be left behind. We hunted the house all over for her and were so surprised to see her in the car before we left!
Dec 7: Since the weather had been unseasonably warm, Lola wasn't use to our weather. She decided she needed her own snow.
Dec. 8: Guess the weather was still getting to her because the next morning we found her in the refrigerator hanging on to Grace's "gape" juice. She must know that's the first thing Grace asks for in the morning.
Dec. 9: Grace asked to have her picture taken with Lola. This morning she was just hanging out on top of a frame!
