This weekend was a JOY!
It's almost Christmas but the weather doesn't feel like it. We don't even have snow yet.
This was my yard the other morning. It was so warm after school Em and I practiced volleyball and Sam rode his bike. We usually are shoveling snow by now.
Rudolph was on this week, so you can be sure that Christmas is coming.
Sam had a friend over on Saturday.
We made the mistake of letting them lick the bowl from the Christmas cookie dough.
At least this was better than the last time he had a friend over. Mom told them to go outside and play and in ten minutes time this is what happened.
Sam's friend's mom came before we had time to clean them up. Mother Eloise was frantic.
Sam's friend's mom said "Mud equals fun" and that it was okay. I guess everyone needs to find some sort of joy on the weekend.
Natalie likes to hang out with me on weekends. We do nails. We went to see the Harbor Creek High School Christmas play. We liked that.
The big event of the weekend was Sam's first wrestling tournament.
We were nervous, so we had to recruit some helpers.
Tracy is Sam's Godmother and she and Jarett came all the way out to Cambridge Springs and surprised us. Tracy calmed me and mom down and explained wrestling to us. It's confusing!
Sam won his first two matches and lost the third one. He did great! He got this trophy.
He was a good winner and a good loser.
He got this cool trophy and we got to go out to eat afterwards.
We were all happy and it got us in the Christmas spirit.
Here is a little more joy for you to start off your week.
