the one where I got to hang out with some of my favorite boys! Today I built this awesome gingerbread house with Nash (while Cade provided the comic relief and frequently stepped in to taste-test the candies/icing/sprinkles/fondant/gumdrops…haha!), learned all about Pikmin, helped decorate a Christmas tree, played with sweet little Wally [who Cade informed me is a “Chihuahua AND a Shih Tzu”—therefore, he is a “Chihuih Tzu” (chuh-WIT-zoo)!], and got to bust a move with Nash on “Just Dance” for Wii. :)
I also noticed today that I tend to describe things using sound effects and hand motions rather than providing an actual definition. (One example: when Cade asked me “what does whimsical mean?” I responded by saying, “it’s kind of like…*laaah-dee-dah*…” while swaying around in slow motion.) I never realized how often I did this, but it happened several times today—and afterward I wondered if the reason these boys ask me what so many words mean is because they want to see me act them out!
Ooh, and also I went to look at the progress on the new house, and made up a “New House Dance” with Momsie to celebrate! And then I got home and found out that my beautiful friend Atalie is engaged! AHHHHH!!! Couldn't be more excited for you and Nathan! Beautiful. Enjoy today’s Christmas song—it’s by one of my favorite singers of all time! :)
