Shelly's Diary EntriesDiary Navigation: |
Introduction
I can't believe I have not updated for soOOO long!
ANyway, Christmas was very nice and low key. Not many gifts-new for Paul. THings have been tight and with Sean's health, busy.
My dad and step mom were here helping take care of the boys while Ken and I were at the hospital for Sean's surgery. It was nice for Paul to have them here and keep things as normal as possible. He doesn't do well with change. He had fun with his grandpa!
Paul is off to go skiing with Scouts this weekend. We are getting a big storm here, so our mountains are going to be very white!
Dancing
Paul is going to his first church dance this week. He doesn' t want to go, but we told him if he wasn't having fun, we will come and get him. I know he won't ask a girl to dance and will probably turn down any girls who ask him. But it is an experience and he gets to be away from brothers for a few hours.
Not much else is going on with him. His choir performance was wonderful! He did a great job as all of them did. I was able to go the first night without any boys! HEAVEN! I was so tired, I just about fell asleep listening to the beautiful music.
OH( Paul's gifts:
A used computer-He LOVES IT!
A mouse pad-when he opened it he was so happy to just to have a cheap mouse pad!
A few gift cards to Best Buys.
A mega blocks submarine from DH parents. RETurning since it is for a 7yr old. They never get gifts that are right age for anyone
A game from them also. We are returning that as well.
A new CD walkman with head phones.
2 Beatle CD's/
A nice leather wallet
some camping items.
He still needs his watch and some clothes he needs, but due to Sean, we didn't have time to get them.
Happy New Year!
Shelly and Paul
