Miracle on 34th Street, McCracken kids' review

We took the kids to go see Miracle on 34th Street on the 28th of November. It was such a good play. I loved sitting their with my family and watching such an uplifting play. The actors did such a good job. It was so fun watching our kids during the play. A little way into it Isaac leaned over and said "I've seen this on TV before!" He thought that was pretty cool. Connor would laugh every time they would start singing "That man is Santa Claus" during the trial scene. I'm so glad we had the opportunity to go. This is what the kids had to say about the play.

The play was really fun. I liked the whole play.

The play was good. There was a lot of singing. The set was cool. My favorite character was Suzie 😉 from Kiley

Kiley and Dawn's project

Kiley got a sewing machine for her birthday this year. I thought it would be fun for me and her to make a rag quilt. We went to Walmart and found the cutest fabric. It represented both of us. We found some fabric that had skulls with hot pink bows. We also got some hot pink fabric to match. We had a lot of fun cutting out the blocks and putting it together. Here are some fun pictures of our progress and our final product. Kiley is a natural little seamstress.

Merry Christmas

My awesome husband sent me this picture of the Baby Jesus. It is such a beautiful picture I thought it needed to be shared with all.

Early Christmas

We decided to get our family an early Christmas present. It is soooooo nice. It has seat warmers. I am loving that part of our new car. It is very nice to have a warm seat to sit on when you get off of graveyards and it is freezing outside. It runs so smooth and has a lot of room. The kids said the seats are a lot more comfortable than our van was. Merry Christmas to us!



Dance

Yesterday Kiley and Connor had their first Irish dance performance. They had so much fun. They only had 2-3 practices before their performance. They did an awesome job. We are going to have a couple of great Irish dancers in our family.

New Blog

We decided that we should do a blog so everybody in our families can keep up with us and our fast growing kids.  I'm really excited to be in the blog world now.  Hopefully it will be a fun experience and our families will enjoy our family as much as we do.
