More goofing around

Saturday was a glorious day. Katelyn slept until 8:45 and then we were all in our jammies until noon. Now that's the way to ring in the new year!
I made pumpkin waffles...which were oh so very tasty and we watched the Rose Parade. Katelyn played helicopter with Michael...which is one of her favorite activities. The take off...the turbulance...the bombings...the landing. There is much belly laughing to be heard. The more Katelyn is thrown around the louder the laughter. :)
Seriously, don't you love this???

For dinner I made kielbasa and homemade sauerkraut with some potatoes and onions thrown in. It was a super yummy winter dish and I got in touch with my Polish self. :)

Katelyn likes to play school. Mommy gets to be the teacher and Michael's the lunch lady. I think that's funny.

Here's our star student. We gave her an A+ for the day.

Then we made up a Blues Clues adventure about a letter that came in the mailbox from grammy and papa that said "We love you Katelyn" and made her guess what it was all about as we drew pictures. This is our evening entertainment around here. Please note that Papa has a golf club in his hand and that's how Katelyn was able to guess who the letter was from.

A three day weekend and today was back to work...a whole five day work week this week. How will we do it?
But we booked a condo in Destin, FL for mid-May when Michael finishes school. Only 4 1/2 more months to go and then a whole week on the beach. That's what's going to get me through winter.
