Shoveling their way "off the naughty list"

I just got a call from my neighbor who asked if I knew that my boys are out working their way off the naughty list by shoveling walks.

She tried to pay them for shoveling her walks but they said

"No, thanks, we are
working our way
off the naughty list."

...so they think.
I keep telling them they are good wonderful boys.....yet, one is vacuuming, and two are out shoveling the WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD.

She said she wanted to put in a good word and she hopes that we are giving them something wonderful...


I told her I keep trying to tell them they are WONDERFUL!




Only Clarissa is relaxing....

In the end I suppose my neighbors will be happy that the boys thinking they need to do "something to get on the nice list" will benefit them by their walks being shoveled.

Yeah for Christmas....only one more FULL day.

Hope you and yours are enjoying a peaceful holiday season.


And about those Hampsters.....I suppose that they think going over Santa's head to Jesus will work. We will see...

Jeremy: I am about to cry.
Me: Why?
Jeremy: Some people offered us some money
and Sam told them "No."
I am so sick of this shoveling!

...and in further news:

Sister Randall gave us Candy Cane Cocoa for a neighbor gift.
I brought the boys in to warm them up.

Jeremy said, "Sister Randall always gives the best gifts.
She NEVER buys anything from the store,
she home makes EVERYTHING!"

[He seriously thinks she made the cocoa!
I guess the package does look fancy!!!]

Sister Randall is the neighbor who called me about the boys shoveling...and who tried to pay them.
She is wonderful wonderful. LOVE the cocoa!

LOVE my kids.
Wonderful Holiday Season!

Merry Christmas to you all!
Wishing you all Peace, Hope, Happiness!
