I can't figure out this weather. Your girls are in heavy coats (and oh yes, we have those fabulous fringed boots too!), but in Chicago, where it should have been freezing and snowing, it was 55 degrees. We got so hot walking back to our hotel, we had to peel off the coats. I was sweating at an outdoor Christkindl market at 9 pm at night. CHICAGO.

(Hint! ;o) (Hannah found Ro's student card in her new winter coat pocket and said, 'Mommy, One of da girls was in my pocket! :o) So cute!!<br /><br />Laughed as I read the part about the skates. Until I saw the pic I imagined the girls skating with either two left or two right skates. Heh! Oops!!<br /><br />Can you believe I've never tried teppanyaki? I've wanted to go but just never have. Maybe next summer you can introduce me?<br /><br />Christmas arrived in our home today. Bobble Chippey set a cute breakfast table. We put the tree up and Hannah did the majority of the decorating. Love our tree that definitely has the 3yo touch! Haven't done the outside yet but that since it's been freezing on the weekends. Tomorrow is supposed to be warmer so hopefully I'll get the outside done soon.<br /><br />Off to help BC find his home for the night.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06120007274654255204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-231081907076702922012-12-01T21:44:48.600-08:002012-12-01T21:44:48.600-08:00We got a chance to check that out last week when w...We got a chance to check that out last week when we were visiting my dad and step-mom in San Jose for Thanksgiving.

Anyhow, the hot apple cider you see kids (or anyone) drinking around the holidays is kind of a mildly spiced hot apple juice. That doesn't sound very good, but really it is!

I will be in your area Mon thru Thurs for business, so just keep all that rain AWAY! Someday, when I travel to that area with my girls (younger DD6 is from the Jiangxi province), we'll have to try to meet for lunch. My Sophie LOVES "watching" your girls. She always says "let's see what the twins are doing!" I'm afraid to let her see your upcoming trip to China....she will be asking to go! Our travel group is hoping to do a reunion tour in a few years, maybe when the girls are about 10. We'll be following along, so please try to post while you're there! Have a great holiday...<br />Two Pearlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12287174746506005845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-59951479673234558492012-12-01T17:35:34.753-08:002012-12-01T17:35:34.753-08:00Yes, we alway decorate right after Thanksgiving! ...Yes, we alway decorate right after Thanksgiving!

The elf - FRED - has been visiting since the day after Thanksgiving. Today they kids went to see Santa - a Deaf Santa. That way both of my kiddos could tell Santa what they want. Nathan is Deaf and Emily is fluent in sign...was a good fit!

I brought the girlies to see the Nutcracker with the pre-performance backstage tour with the girl scouts ahead of time with a quick dinner at the diner across the street from those rides you were on - and we hustled right past. Also- a late night and a bit of a sleep in for us. The performance was lovely. Ginny Ginnynoreply@blogger.com
