Four Jingle Bells

My mom turned the big 5-0 on Saturday, so we had to torture her her a little bit. We put some posters around her school and her firends at school also did some funny things. It was hilarious hearing every kid in the school say Happy Birthday, Mrs. Terry. Then we had a surprise dinner at Joe's Crab Shack. She hates seafood, but didn't know they would make her hula around the restaurant. Very entertaing! Hailey saw her cousin, Ethan doing dishes one day and is now addicted to doing dishes and asks me "When the sun comes up, can I clean more dirty plates?" She does a great job too and it cuts some of my work off. So, now, how to keep her doing the work after she gets sick of it?!?!

We went out Saturday to check out a new shopping center in our area and to get some fun pictures for Christmas cards. For those of you who live here, it is across from the Albertsons on Durango and Farm. There is a great boutique there called Karen's Kreations and the prices are great. There are some really nice collectible things and some fun gifts that you wouldn't be able to find in regular stores. And there is also an old fashioned candy shop which we used to bribe Hailey with to take pcitures and be nice to Spencer while we were taking pictures.=)
