Sunday we got up and attended church services. It was snowing on the way home. While lunch/dinner was being prepared, the kids played outside with Buttercup in the falling snow. They had a blast. They were excited how fast our yard was covered. Later that evening, Malachi ran into the kitchen, tripped over the stool, hit his mouth on the counter… and yelled "Yippee!!!" He lost another tooth.
Monday was cold. We got up and had to brush the snow off of the vehicles, scraping the ice off the windows as well. That evening, Malachi and I sat in the car, trying to keep warm while Mysia piano lessons. The kids worked on homework during the evening before showers.
After work on Tuesday, we attended Mysia's school performance at the gym. She did very well, and even had a speaking part. Lydia and the kids went home to work on homework while I went to the visitation of my first employer, Mike Fortner. The line was long, but was worth it to share my condolences to the family of a man who had an impact on my life as a teenager.
On Wednesday, Mysia got to take a school fieldtrip to Smallin Cave here in Springfield. She thought it was awesome. I had the privilege to attend the funeral for Mike Fortner before noon.. That evening, we ate and went to church for our Relationship Evangelism Class.
Thursday evening consisted of homework for the kids and getting a few things done around the house. We watched some TV shows on Netflix before showers and bed.
The kids got to spend time with Granny on Friday after school. She took them to visit with their friends for several hours before coming home in time for supper. We ate and I went to work to help with the BBC Patriots Basketball game on air. After chores, Lydia and kids relaxed around the house reading books. Malachi fell asleep on the couch before I returned home.
Saturday was pretty typical. THe kids got up and chores started before watching cartoons in the morning. We did a grocery run that afternoon and even visited the mall for some Christmas shopping. It was crowded. We got a treat from Andy's before coming home for the evening. Christmas music was played throughout the house while the kids played. After supper, the kids had their baths and we played Mario Kart. We read a few books before going to bed.
