So he liked him for a minute...

Yesterday, on the spur of the moment, we decided to go to the mall and see if Hayden would sit on Santa's lap. When we walked up, he looked at Santa, and acted like he was anyone else standing around us. So I went over and put him in his lap and he was doing just fine, even just about to get a smile (which is what we caught in the picture), until he turned around to see whose lap he was sitting in...........then it was all over. If only we could have captured that moment too!!

My Deal of the Day!!

Ok, you all know I am beginning to get into this "couponing thing". So this week Walgreen's has Coffeemate on sale, buy one for $2.49, get another free (this includes all those yummy holiday flavors too!). So if you go on www.coffeemate.com you can a coupon for $1.00/1, you can hit your back button and print more than one coupon out too. So I took my 2 $1.00 coupons into Walgreen's yesterday, purchased my coffeemate and paid 49 CENTS plus tax for BOTH bottles!!! What a deal!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Conner's Christmas Band Concert

Be sure to turn the music player off before listening. This is just one song from the concert. You can't see Conner in the video, but I did a close-up on my niece playing the bells.

He's cute even when he's sick...yes, we have been dealing with the stomach bug at our house this week. Praise God I haven't gotten it...yet. Be praying for me not to get it and Hayden and Frank to continue on the road to feeling better soon!!

15-0

This is my blog, so I guess I have the right to brag sometimes...right?? And Momma's are allowed antway!! Conner won his wrestling match last night 15-0. He won by what is called a technical fall--which means, he was 15 points ahead of his opponent, so an automatic win. I only got part of the match videoed (due to operator error--duh!), but at least I got the best part!! Conner is the one with the yellow head gear on, if you can't tell.

And a picture of my winner!

And little bit pretending he is big brother!

Couponing 101

Tonight we are having a Coupon Class at our church. A friend of mine is a "Coupon Queen" and she is going to teach us some of her tricks! We are all so excited about this!! My friend, Denise, saves mega bucks and is even able to share some of her savings with others! This is so neat!! She bases her "class" on the book, Shop, Save, and Share by Ellie Kay.

You can check Ellie Kay's website out here. I can't wait to come back and teach you some of my new secrets!! Stay tuned!! And if by chance you live in this area, and would like to come to the class (it is open to everyone!), please send me an email and I will gladly give you directions!!
