I got one of those email question/answer forward things from my friend, Heather, and, instead of emailing it, I decided to procrastinate cleaning by posting it here. I was on the phone with Amy Jo at the time, and we decided that it would be more fun for her to answer all of my questions for me. The thing about these questions, is that they are supposed to be answered in one word. We kind of cheated. We’re like that. But we tried. So, remember as you read, these are Amy’s answers for me.

1. Where is your cell phone?  ear
 2. Your significant other? heretic
 3. Your hair? bee-yu-ti-ful
 4. Your mother? crafty
 5. Your father? funny
6. No question here for some reason.

 7. Your dream last night? squirrels
 8. Your favourite drink? wet
 9. Your dream/goal? happiness

10. What room are you in? kitchen
 11. Pet’s name? peeve
 12. Where do you want to be in 6 years? Heaven?
 13. Where were you last night? home

 14. What you’re not? stupid
 15. Muffins? pumpkin-chocolate-chip
 16. One of your wish list items? bigger-mp3-player
 17. Where you grew up? in-skirts

 22 . Your mood? constant
 23. Missing someone? Me!
24. Your car? Filthy
 25 . Something you’re not wearing?? bobsled
 26 . Favourite Store? Kroger?? (no, my friend, it would be a bookstore)
 27 . Your summer? adventure’y
 28 . Your favourite colour? pink (said very sadly)
 29. When is the last time you laughed? when I gagged at your pink
 30 . Who will/would re-post this? only the losers with nothing else to do

Kyra was sick on Christmas Day. Mom took Elijah with her to the family dinner, and Chris was at work. Kyra and I played all day. Owen mostly watched when he wasn’t asleep. Here’s a picture of Kyra playing with the Barbie computer that Mamaw Velvet got her for Christmas. Notice what she was eating, a roll, cheese, ham, and some marshmallows. Obviously, she was feeling better by then.

Here’s a couple of pictures of Kyra when we were playing Pretty, Pretty Princess. I definitely picked a winner with this Christmas present. It’s right up Princess Kyra’s alley.

Since Daddy had to work on Christmas Day, we opened our presents early Christmas Eve before church. We didn’t have time to take a lot of pictures. Plus, Daddy was the one taking them, and about half of them were blurry. Daddy isn’t the supurb picture taker that Mommy is. Here’s a couple good ones, though.

DiDi (Chris’ aunt Dianna) sent us a basket of cookies for Christmas.

Kyra was ready to dig in!

You can’t really tell here, but Chris was enjoying some cookies while he studied for his test. (He was chewing when I took the picture.) Owen’s wishing he had teeth.

Elijah helped himself to quite a few.

As for me, I’m going to say that I haven’t ate any and couldn’t tell you that all five kinds are delicious and that the triple chocolate are my favorite. See, if there’s no picture (cough) evidence (cough, cough) then I couldn’t have ate any.

Thanks, DiDi!

This is a video clip of the kids in their manger scene at church last night. This was in the middle of the older kids’ Christmas play. I don’t have any still pictures, because I took the video. You can’t see Kyra’s face in it, but she’s the little shepherd girl beside of Elijah. See if you can tell why I called it “The Wandering Shepherd”.

This is a video I took of some of the teenage girls at our church singing “O, Holy Night”. It was so absolutely beautiful that I had to share with with all of you.
