Project 365 January 7 thru 11

January 7

We're loving our new Wii and on this day we had our first "family game night" where we all gathered in the basement and played together.

Lucy and I made some homemade donut holes on this morning.  They turned out pretty tasty!  They especially came in handy when we had four extra kids come over, except that Benj didn't get as many as he would've liked (:

 Lucy was carrying around her dolly in this box all day long.  She insisted on taking the whole thing with us to Walmart and was especially insistent that she needed to take the wipes for her baby.  The silly face is pure coincidence!

This is our cross wall.  We had several friends in Texas who had a similar collection and decided we wanted to start one too.  So in every house we've lived in...we're at 5 now...we've had a cross wall.  Many of the crosses have a special memory or were given to us by a special friend.  Some were just bought because I liked them.  They are regular topics of discussion over dinner within our family and with guests.  Although this is not every cross in the house, it does include most of them!

January 11

Last night Timmy couldn't sleep because he was sad to be missing the BCS National Championship game.  We promised to record it for him.  Most of his free time today was consumed with watching it.  Cooper is attracted to the lights of the television and in love with Timmy.  So I caught a few cute tender moments of the two of them "watching" together.
