Ricky's First Snowstorm

Little Ricky didn't enjoy his first time out in the snow, cried right away and went back inside with Amy.

Anika had a ton of fun though, she was outside several times: sledding, throwing snow balls and helping me shovel the driveway.

Amy and Anika decorated the Christmas tree, put up the nativity scene and made yummy Christmas cookies.

Ricky's First St. Nick's Day

Little Rick enjoyed his first St. Nick's Day, Anika and Rick liked their presents. Later in the day, Anika helped me put up the Christmas lights and pick out a Christmas tree.

Trip to the Movies

I get frustrated with inconsiderate people.

Amy and I took a break from the kiddos, and headed off to see a movie this past weekend, on our way into town we stopped off to get a quick bite to eat at a fast food joint, before the movie started.

At first we thought the place was closed, because there was no one in the restaurant except us and the employees, not a single other customer besides us.

In walks a large family, they have the run of the place and can sit anywhere they want, dozens of empty seats all over the restaurant.

Where do they sit?  You guessed it...

The seats directly behind us, so close it felt like they were talking in my ear.  But because the spot didn't hold them all, then they moved right next to us.

What the hell?

You can sit anywhere in the restaurant, dozens of open seats, and you pick the spot right next to the only two other people in the place?

Urrrgghhh....
