I did not "hide" our trip to florida last week from the blog and facebook because I am super paranoid about our house being broke into again.
Therefore, I do not have a LOT of photos to share with you and will be spending the entire week on photo catch up.
You were warned.
Or not warned.
Jeremiah's car did not get broken into while we were gone. (It wasn't parked at our house, but still.)
We did not show up at Lowes last night to get our Christmas tree only to realize they were closed and had to pacify the wails and tears of the kids with promises (bribes?) of hot chocolate. We are always on top of things like that.
I did not decorate my house with the Christmas season in mind so that all my holiday decorations would "go" with everything.
I am not that OCD.
And I most definitely did not tear up when pulling out the stockings and past holiday kids crafts (that actually survived the trash can!) when Ezra asked me where Eli's was. He doesn't remember life before Eli. I love that.
I did not go Black Friday shopping because I am way way way more spiritual and above all that American consumerism (aka: greed). And I definitely did not go to Wal-Mart of all places, the devils black friday playground. And I did not see an almost fight break out the next line over. And I did not get so nervous that I started to laugh because that is how I handle uncomfortable public situations. And I certainly wouldn't have lost sleep, gone through all that trouble, and put myself at risk just for a couple of five dollar candle sets.
Because...remember, I wasn't there.
Nope. Not me.

Oh yeah... I know you better than this. Glad you didn't share that you were gone ( my momma heart) and I bet the kids were disappointed about the tree ;( but my favorite thing you shared was about Ezra and Eli...that was so sweet...gave me tears too.
I love your little sweet Ezra!!! Jeremy has warned me never to put when we are out of town on facebook/bog. Now hurry up and get those babies a Christmas tree!
I'm oh so glad you did not go black friday shopping with us. That would have been really silly :)
I love you! You crack me up, especially the part of the devils playground!
Ezra is such a sweetheart! I miss you all so much!
Hugs and kisses!
