Compliment???

Conversation with Michael at lunch:

Michael:  Mommy, you should chaperone "Great Escape" (the summer camp he's been to twice, this will be his 3rd and last year) this year.

Me (more than a little surprised and immediately so flattered and happy):  Really, Buddy?  Why?  You've never wanted me to chaperone before.

Michael:  I know.  I'm not embarrassed of you anymore.

Best picture of me EVER

If I do say so myself!

Oh, the circle under my head... I thought, "wow, a necklace?  what detail!".  So, I asked her what that is... perhaps I shouldn't have.  It's my CHIN.  Diet starts tomorrow!  (although my body looks quite slim!)  :)

A-OK

Michael's shoulder is fine. The dr said it may have gotten dislocated and then popped right back in (this all happened on the trampoline, of course!) hence the popping sound as he moved it around. Yikes!

A few pictures from Junie's POV while we waited:

Of Michael's shoulder, that is. Waiting for x-ray. Fun times.

Christmas Eve

We enjoyed a meal at one of our favorites- Kani House. After driving through the Johns Creek light show, we went home to put out cookies for Santa and carrots for his reindeer. Junie sprinkled the "reindeer food" that they made in school. The kids did their annual Christmas Eve tumbling in the living room and we read lots and lots of Christmas books. Right before bed we were surprised by carolers at our door! The boys had a "sleepover" and we all went to bed while visions of sugarplums danced in our heads...
