Christmas Spirit


Lets see where to begin.....
We tried to see Santa for the last Santa last night at Santa Village, which it was a great idea till we got there and couldn't move. They had all these little houses that you could in and do different things but there were so many people that we only made in to about 2. We decided that it was to cold to wait in the hour and half long line with 10 kids that ranged from 2-11 and only 3 adults to corral.

So today we went to the movies with my cousin which means we again had 10 kids but we had 4 adults today..like that 1 really helped right lol. Anyways so we went and saw Christmas Carol not in 3D though cause we didn't think the 2 littlest ones would do so well. It was a pretty good movie.

Then afterwards my crew heads to Bass Pro in hopes to have some fun and see Santa...Man what a mad house. I stood in line while my husband tried to do the crafts with them. I think they only manged to do one. So we get up to see Santa about an hour later and our youngest which is 3 wants no part of it, so Santa gets up and lets my husband sit in his chair and he stands behind them all, which I thought was funny. But it worked I have a 2 pictures one where the 3 yr old is trying to escape and one where he is smiling.

I think that next year we will be seeing Santa in Nov.

ME

So this is me Angelique ...I think... I think I lost myself somewhere between giving birth 10 yrs ago and potty training a 3 yr old boy now.....

I became a mom 10yrs ago to a little girl when I was still a little girl at the age of 17. Man that seems sooo long ago.

So here I am a stay at home mother of four. 3 girls(10,8,&6) and a boy(3).
It can be fun...at times although is very draining and can wear on a person. You just become some sort of zombie that just does what HAS to be done and keep going. Sometimes you wonder "how did I get here??" ,"how did I become someone on auto pilot?" There always seems to be something,rather it be needing to take a kid here or there or making or doing SOMETHING ALWAYS!!!

Don't get me wrong I love my kids just wish there could be some ME time sometimes!
