It's just another day...

Lorenzo drawing detailed people, he even knows to draw people small in the back because they are far away! Brilliant!

Holy cow, busy day today!! We took Lorenzo to school this morning, as usual. Then Claire and I headed back to Walmart to exchange all her "too big" clothes. While at Walmart I happened to go back in the Christmas area, and saw that there were a couple of aisles of clearance toys. Then I came across a beautiful find, Crayola Wonder Explosion sprayer AND spinner regularly $19.96 on clearance for $9.00 a piece. Lorenzo and blossomed into my little artist and I knew he would LOVE these. These were such a good deal, and with Christmas on it's way I could not pass it by, meaning I picked up the phone and let Santa know about this amazing find. (wink, wink)

Claire modeling her new winter jammies. She LOVES them...they say PRINCESS on them!

After Walmart we came home and then ran out again to get Lorenzo and then over to our moderately distant neighbor's home, Liz King. She was our across the street neighbor over on Crystal Bay and now she is our 533 steps East neighbor in our new home! We chatted with her for a couple hours, Claire was running to go up to the playroom where the fun play kitchen is, when she tripped and bonked her lip on the wood banister. OUCH!! She got a bit of a fat lip from the experience, which she didn't know how to handle. (funny!) She kept stretching her top lip over her teeth feeling the strangness of it.

My Cheesy kids! Claire is blowing kisses.

We came home, ate lunch, wrapped Tevan's birthday present. Tevan is our little friend that also lived across the street at Crystal Bay, and has since moved to the opposite end of Grantsville. He had his 4th birthday party today. I drove the kids to it early because I also had Cubscouts I had to be back for. At cubscouts we learned about our environment at Sister Johansen's home. We planted some flowers, picked tomatoes, collected garbage and checked for leaky pipes. Boy those 7 boys can be exhausting!! When it was over I then picked up the kids from the birthday party, came home, made dinner, ate and was finally done for the day!!! Hooray!
