Lexi WON!

I forgot to post that Alexis won her bid for treasurer. She found out on Monday. I know I'm a little late. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. She's very excited and I hope this will help her self esteem and social life.

I've created a MONSTER of a tradition!

So when Alexis was in 2nd grade and Merrit was in kindergarten I started making their classes treats at Christmas and cupcakes for their birthdays. Ever since then they expect to have these things at these times. Well the treats I made were white chocolate covered pretzel rods that look like snowmen. It was fine when I only had to make them for 2 classes, but this year I had the great pleasure of doing them for 4 classes! I took about 5 1/2 hours yesterday and made 100 snowmen. I feel it's quite an accomplishment and am glad that Lexi will be going into middle school so I won't have to make for her any more. Here is what they look like:
I couldn't find any pretzel rods so I had to use pretzel logs instead. They aren't as cute when they are this short, but what are you going to do? I only had a couple with their scarfs on when I took the pictures. But eventually all had scarfs too. The kids got to pass them out today. They were so excited.

Here's one for Les!!!!!

Finals

So for the next 4 days my life is going to continue to be unfun and stressful. I'm not looking forward to taking my finals, but I can't wait to have them over and finished! I will be taking 2 on Monday and 1 on both Tuesday and Wednesday. So please pray for me because I am worried about a couple of them and I just really want to do well. I will be seeing you all very soon! :)

Hillary and Kristi I loved the dancing elves that you posted. Thank you so much for doing that because it gave me a great, much needed, hearty laugh.

I did one for us too, except for Les :(

O.K., I felt left out too

We didn't have an eighth person, so I just added a happy face to look at.
