The weekend and more ‘toons

This weekend was a lot of fun! We got a great reception from the community (and $45 in donations) from our Christmas Caroling. My favorite part was going to the firehouses. They were definitely the most appreciative and also the firemen were HOT! The band mom that set up the schedule made sure she scheduled in 3 firehouses just for me. What a great Christmas gift!! 😉 The after party one of the families hosted was a lot of fun as well. There was so much food (all made by various band parents) and the kids were having a great time playing games and hanging out.

Sunday, I spent the day helping Kelly get things ready for Brian’s birthday bash. Brian spent the day not feeling well. We were kinda worried that he’d be miserable and not have a good time at his own 40th birthday party. Low and behold, once folks started showing up, he pepped up right away! I became designated bartender as soon as Jerry and Diane (Brian’s parents) got there and everyone had smiles on their faces. I knew I should have gotten a bartending job somewhere in my college life. The gumbo that Kelly made was wonderful, the people had a lot of fun and Brian had a great kick into his 40th year.

Today, I went Christmas shopping. I found most of the things I was looking for but it wiped me out! While I was at the mall, I stopped and saw Sami and got to talk to my sister quite bit. Eventually, we’ll find the perfect gift for our dad. 🙂

Well, since I was gone all day yesterday, I didn’t get a chance to post a cartoon so y’all get two today! BONUS!!! They really should be kept together, anyways. Enjoy.

Well, today was the first official day of winter for the kids. I had a work day and I did get a few things done. The lack of communication within the district drove me nuts. What else is new? Minus the kids being around (and there actually were a few there for a rehearsal for the musical) it was a typical day! I did get some shopping and wrapping done so that was very nice.
