1st Scratch Off Saturday of 2010

The kids and I headed over to Grams' house this morning to put her Christmas tree away. Let me correct myself - I headed to Grams' house to put her Christmas tree away and the kids headed over there to drive me crazy! Between climbing the stairs and navigating the sea of dogs, it's a constant game of "see who can get hurt or break something first". I'm happy to report no injuries and nothing broken!

They did enjoy playing the piano, though. I walked into Grams' office where the piano is and saw the cutest sight - Noelle sitting next to Noah at the piano. I didn't have my camera but Grams' camera was in her office so I was able to snap this shot:

Apparently, Grams doesn't use her camera very much. How do I know its usage? Well, I took the memory stick home to copy the picture above to my hard drive and every picture that has ever been taken with the camera is still on the memory stick. All hundred of them or so!

Ironically, these pictures were also on there:


It's very cliche but time really does fly. To see Noah in the picture from today and then in the pictures from a few years ago, it's hard to believe he's grown up so fast. I want to slow the next few years down!!

Tonight, we carried on the 'Scratch Off Saturday' tradition. Every Saturday, Daddy brings home a scratch off for everyone in the family. Noah was the only one who won - he was so excited with the $10 prize! Me? Not so much! Paying $20 to win $10 of it back...how exciting, haha!
