Who ate here?

After a meal of pizza and cut apples I looked down the table to see one of my girls left this in the wake of her meal. Can you guess who? This will be oh so easy for those of you who know my girls.

Life at the Lam's

Having four girls close in age makes for a very active and noisy home. There is always something going on. I thought I'd share a little of what it is like living with four girls who love to perform.

Singing and dancing happens on a daily basis. We have a set of 36"X36" silks. It is one of the best "toys" we've ever purchased. They use them evryday to create something. Here is Racehel doing a song and dance in one of her silk creations. (we are still working on the whole modesty thing)

The Cats are always present as well, and they love all the action. My girls love to laugh and love to make me laugh, which they are good at.

Coloring happens on a daily basis as well. I think we own every $1 princess coloring book ever made. I am always on the lookout for new coloring books for the girls, or paper, crayons, paint, playdough, ect.

Here is a pic that really captures what my house looks like. Messy to me, but to my girls it is their latest and greatest creation of a store or stage or just the setting for playing "Girls" which is their favorite game. For an explanation of what "Girls" is you will have to ask them, I have no idea, they just love to play it.

I am sure for most of you this entry is no surprise, but I thought it might be fun to see.

Merry Christmas to you all!

Getting old...

"With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come." -Shakespeare

In a world where the opposite is true, this quote inspires me. I vow to welcome each new wrinkle and gray hair with mirth and laughter. I decided a couple of years ago to give up on trying to dye my hair. Cheap dye makes it brassy red and honestly, if I had $100+ and 2 hours by myself, there is no way I am spending it in a salon with stinky stuff gooped on my head only to need it all done again in a couple of months. No thank you. So, with mirth and laughter I say, "BRING IT ON!"
