Thank you, Aunt Diane!

Many, many thanks to my Aunt Diane who came over this morning to watch the boys while Mom and I (and Campbell who was such a good girl!) went Christmas shopping! We were very productive and had fun! When I asked Jacob if he had fun with Aunt Diane, he promptly told me that he "played hippo game with Aunt Diane." Jacob usually tells me "I don't know," but apparently this was too good to forget! He did seem to miss me, though, because he later asked me, "Mommy no go out again?"

On Friday nights at the Hopper house (my parents' house), there is an open invitation for dinner. Tonight there were alot of people! Mom (Dad actually missed it), the Compton Family, the Hinson Family, Diane, Nancy (my mom's best friend) and her 2 grandkids, and me and the boys. What a fun tradition! In the picture you'll notice Zack sitting at the head of the table in Pop's place - I didn't even put him in a booster, although Jacob is! You may also notice my empty chair and cold pizza ... hot food is hard to come by as a parent of young children!
