the real world

The holidays are over, 2006 is gone, the magical Christmas decorations have all been put away until next Christmas, and our house is back to being a regular house. I guess it's time to get back to the real world. Well, almost time... I still have a few more days left of Christmas vacation, so I'm going to make the most of it...

which definitely includes playing with the big boys, who are also all still on vacation! It's a regular ole block party with all the kids outside playing, all day, until night time, with no homework to do like usual. I guess we'll really get back to the real world on January 8th!

PS- By the way, yes... Mommy was initially adamantly opposed to all forms of gun play, even water guns. I broke her down when I was 18 months old...
