The Big Man

We took Mags and Liam to see the Big Man after church today. Liam was pretty certain he was the really real Santa. When we were done at the mall, we went to the China Buffet.

I was very disappointed...they didn't sing Deck the Halls for me.

Not a duck in sight either.

Baffling.

I love you all!!

Garrett Girls Cookie Bake '09

Let me tell you something about the Garrett women. They are unrivaled at making messes...

but, they are also unrivaled at making cookies!!!

Garrett women know when to take a load off...

and when to have a drink and rest their fuzzy ACT wracked brains.

Above all else,

They know how to love each other. And have fun.

And laugh. And drink. And eat.

What can I say? We're extrememly talented women.

Then, there is of course the fact, that we are brought together by our mutual love of the Garrett men. And thank God for a Garrett man when the oven handle breaks in the middle of cookie baking day!

Happy Christmas Cookies from us to you!!! Love you all!

Secret Santa and Lunch

Wow, I've gotten a little behind! We've actually been busy this weekend and I have things to tell and show.

Friday was Secret Santa at the elementary school. Jon and I both went in to volunteer. Jon only lasted through Maggie and Liam's classes. But at least he was able to help them shop!

I didn't manage to get a pic of Mags shopping. I was helping some indecisive little kids pick out a candle for his brother...or somthing like that!

I did, however, get pics of both of them eating lunch...

Maggie and Maura...they share a love of horses.

Liam and Anthony. They share a love of recess.

K...that's all for Friday...moving on...

I love you all!!!
