We're ready......

The Christmas stuff is put away, the closet under the stairs is organized again, the kids have been in the bath, the lunches are made, the coffee maker is primed for the morning. We are ready for a new semester......
We did very little on our last day of freedom. I got all our usual house stuff out and put all the Christmas ornaments away
Ben helped by hibernating in the boxes and eating strawberries
Lucia came over for most of the day and Zachary & Julie were over for a while, so Ben & Maggie had an extended play date. The highlight of the day was Ben wanted to go to Burger King & get the free Wii toy.
After they got home, they even played outside for a short while & I did a little in the garden, but it was really cold and damp. Sam did rake leaves for a while, he was probably the most useful one of us for the day.....
Maggie is definitely ready for school, she has managed to be really annoying all day. I said you know that she's being annoying when 3 other families members in 3 totally different parts of the house all yell "MAGGIE" at the same time. She needs a dose of Ms Linda to get her back with the program....
