Candle By Night

My children sure do. A couple of weeks ago I was privileged to receive VIP coupons for General Mills cereal. For my children this is a huge treat for them as we don't normally eat cereal in the morning, but this gave me an opportunity to try something different for them. Their favorite so far is the Honey Nut Cheerios. General Mills announced a commitment to further reduce sugar in cereals advertised to kids under 12 to single digit grams of sugar per serving. The company has already been reducing sugar in cereals while increasing key nutrients, such as calcium and vitamin D, and providing whole grain . Here's some info about cereal for you: Did you know that ready-to-eat cereal eaters consume less fat, less cholesterol and more fiber than non-cereal eaters? Cereals also deliver important vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients , making cereal a top source of key nutrients in children´s diets. Other cereal benefits: Ready-to-eat cereals, including pre...

I know it's been a week or so since I said I would post the rest of these. So sorry, but here you go. Here is a picture of Beloved's parents with all 8 grandchildren in the annual Christmas PJ pic. Although, Special K wasn't in hers. :-D Then it was on to my parents house where I got to see my sister. (2 times in a month...that's a record!) Since my Sister was in town we decided to go to the "White Princess Store" to search for Sweet E's flower girl dress. She had so much fun, but was frustrated because she couldn't take the dress home. Grandma had fun watching and holding Special K. Not the best smile from Sweet E, but it's still a cute picture. The newest happening is that Sweet E cut her hair. Enough that I had to cut about 5 inches or so off. Her beautiful long hair is now gone. I know it will grow back but it hadn't been cut in over 2 years. Oh well...let's just say her scissors are no longer left in her school box. She has to ask for ...

Hard to believe these pictures where taken before the holidays. With the first good snowfall Beloved and the children had some fun in the snow. This fort for example. :-D Big T loved playing in it. Sweet E liked the fort but was busy making a stash of snowballs to store inside the fort. Beloved did most of the work. I think he shoveled all of the snow out of the backyard to build the fort. ;-D Bless his heart, because a few days later it rained and rained. Eventually the rain won out and the fort was gone. I was hoping for more snow after all the work they did so they could add to it, but it just wasn't the case. (But we do have more snow now...they just haven't had time to build another one yet.) Since we actually had Beloved home for a 3 day weekend (2 weeks in a row) the children took advantage of it. :-D Leg*s are a favorite with the children and the adults as well. Then there is the matter of playing train too. The children just love it! I have many, many more pictures to ...
