Christmas Tree UP!

 I'm sure you've noticed the putting up the Christmas tree in SHORTS!

Which, if you know anything about the Lentz Family, is a major accomplishment!  The only reason we even OWN a fake tree, is because we waited too long one year to buy a real one, and there weren't any left!  This year, with all our "holidays" we had time to get it up early.

First Mother/Daughter Pedicures

I've waited a LONG time to get a pedicure with a little girl.  I'm not sure who had more fun-- however, it was so cool, because the girls who did our toes were from the Philippines!

Christmas Present

This is my beautiful Christmas present from Eric!!  And the wall hanging is from him as a new house warming-- it's handmade....  so pretty!!!

Logan's new mode of transportation

Don't you love his new bike?? (I got one too!!) and the second picture is of Daddy and Cayci getting ready to walk to Friday church this morning.....

Cookie Challenge!!!

It is so amazing to be able to teach all the subjects again!  My favorite part is being able to do the weekly cookie challenge....  My student who got to go first (first recipe turned in, cooks first!) was SO excited all day!  I LOVE third grade!!!!

Updated Villa Pictures

Our new game room--notice the table and chairs match our dining room set exactely!!

Not too bad for a boys hangout room!!!

With carpets and actual pictures on the walls!  Now we really feel like we are HOME!

Cayci's Thanksgiving "Doings"

Sorry it's been so long since I've had a chance to update the blog!  Just unpacking, getting settled, and shopping has been FUN!  These first pictures are of Cayci's Thanksgiving program they did at school-- She was so funny!  She "practiced" in the mirror that morning, so she would "remember" how to sing the songs correctly.  After the program, her class celebrated their "Stone Soup" lunch--!!  So much fun!
