Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Everyone:)

It's still Christmas in our house, so I can still say "Merry Christmas!" The decorations won't be packed up until Tim is sick of them. I LOVE Christmas!! We enjoyed a nice warm Christmas in Florida and are back home. We still think it's cold, but now we have warm weather clothes, so it's better. Somehow, flip-flops & shorts didn't match North Carolina's winter!!

Accident or Blessing...?

Remember the accident we had back in Nov.? We just got a call from the insurance company asking to see the damage to the vehicle. We explained that we weren't hurt and there was no damage to the vehicle and even if there was it was so slight that we wouldn't need it fixed. The insurance company said that they would determine any damage and we could do whatever we wanted with the settlement. So, we arranged a time to inspect the truck. The inspector came out and did determine that there was damage done. When he was finished he wrote us a check. We had enough money to pay bills with a little left over for Christmas. So, you tell me, was our accident really an accident or a blessing?

Meadow Lights

We started a new Christmas tradition this year:) We went to see the Meadow Lights. It's an amazing display of Christmas Lights. The pictures don't show what it really looks like. You get to take a train ride all over the property for a close up look. And of course, there is the old-fashion candy store!! PS: Gina, did you see the penguins?!?!

Mylanie-isms

Kids can say the most hilarious things.

Today while playing a game with some of our friends and losing--"I hate being in the behind." and "You can't kick my tail, I don't have one!!"

About the dead frogs beside the pool--"I rescued them, but I think I was too late"

During a Bible story about Moses & Pharoah when Moses said that not only was Pharaoh going to let Israel go, but also give the Israelites gifts. "And Pharaoh said, 'Who do you think I am, Santa Claus?!'"
