one of those moments

this was just one of those moments. one of many that i think will forever be etched in my memory of this Christmas season.

i think it was this past friday afternoon. bailey was recovering from strep throat. i put in the Polar Express. Wow! that movie was PERFECT for my crew! lincoln and sawyer could NOT be more obsessed with trains. and the older kids were so enthralled with it.

it was just one of those moments. and i'm glad i stopped and took a picture!

I still can't get over how clean your house is!! It is hard for me to take those random pics where no one knows because I always feel the need to straighten first or manipulate the background to not be so messy! : )

laura - my house is NOT always clean. but i have a HARD time when things aren't picked up. so, i most likely said, "once everything is picked up, we'll watch the movie!" which is why it looks clean. it isn't always. but, it IS at certain points of the day! things just work better for eVERYone if they are!

our girls must be the only ones afraid of that movie. seriously - all three of them are petrified of that movie. we have never made it through the entire thing because they are screaming and hiding. and it is so not worth that. i don't even try now. maybe when they are in high school. ;-)
