It was pajama night at Color Me Mine on December 28th, which meant we had no "sitting fee." Since their Christmas stuff was on sale, it seemed like a great idea. Luke was going to watch the UFC fight, so I took the kids to the Marketplace to paint a few things. Bubba and I painted a platter, Tubbs painted the Santa and Wiggy painted a small Christmas tree plate. All was going smooth for the first hour...then Bubba and Wiggy started getting bored.
I had a coupon for free cupcakes from Sweet Surrender that expired on 12/31 so of course I had to pay a visit! Tubbs went on a run with me, so this was his reward after we got home!
After putting together a puzzle on NYE that the boys got for Christmas, we headed to Target to buy a few more. We ended up putting together puzzles three nights in a row.
The family joined me on the bike path for a six mile run/ride. Afterwards we went to Denny's because we had a gift card from Uncle Bertsie.
We made many trips to Jamba Juice with gift cards the kids got in their Christmas stockings from Grandma and Grandpa Baer. Lucky for us, we kept getting BOGO coupons every time we went in.
Winning!
Wiggy kept asking me to take her to the mall and go shopping. I really dislike our mall, but we went for it one morning...in our matching purple shirts! I love this little girl and her shopping genes. :)
Luke took me shooting at the range, with his Kimber 45.
WOW is all I can say. It was fun though.
I couldn't leave out this picture of my whiny Christmas princess...who dried her eyes after getting some brownie brittle. Yes, I had to bribe her to ride home with me after church. (The boys rode with dad)
That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....
So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
