Nothing New

Hello All. That is if anyone checks this thing anymore. I know it has been a while since I posted anything. Not much is going on here that I have wanted to post about. Leighton seems to have more of a social life than I do right now. He had his friend Travis over to play Tues. played at Sarah's house on Wed. and went and played at Cade's house on Thurs. He is a little upset today that he doesn't have anyone over to play today.

Beth and Randy did get to come and visit us last weekend. We had a really good time. We didn't do much. They brought our new T.V. and picture for the wall that they got us for Christmas. We couldn't get them in the van when we came back home. So we hung a few pictures and got the new T.V. working. Beth and I made a trip to Home Goods and got a few more things to hang on the wall. Luckily we got those hung too. We played lots of games, ate, and started planning a summer vacation.

I still don't know where we are going, but it was fun looking at different places! One place I do know where my family will be going next month is Aruba!!! Now that is exciting. We are using our timeshare and we can't wait. Since we live in Michigan now the kids get a winter break the last week of Feb. Last year we went to Disney and had a great time. So this year we are headed to Aruba. Leighton is looking forward to wearing tank tops and shorts. Right now it is around 15 degrees out and he just has a pair of pants on. He makes me cold just looking at him. I think it is going to be warmer this weekend. Around the 30 degree mark!

Who Knew!

In case you ever wondered, Barbie's hair will melt when put on a light bulb that has been on for a while.

A few minutes ago, I looked over in the family room and saw smoke coming out from the top of the lamp. Leighton was beside it and in his hand was a Barbie shoved up under the shade. I quickly told him to stop and take it out. Now I am trying how to get all of the melted hair off of the bulb. :)
