I worked on Saturday - the last day before 10 days off. Jordy called me and asked what time I was coming home. I knew he was up to something. Sure enough, he had rented a limo and invited some of our friends to come with us to look at Christmas lights. I wasn't sure how it was going to go with 2 three year olds and a baby, but it was worse than I could have imagined. Kaylea had gotten up early and didn't take a nap, so she was tired. It started out great - the kids were excited and were great, but that's where the fun ended. Kaylea didn't want to look at the lights, she wanted to get out in the cold and dance. She cried, which lead to the baby crying. She and Owen didn't get along as great as they normally do either. They did have fun looking at some of the lights and stopping at McDonald's, so it wasn't quite a disasterous as I make it sound. When we got back to the house, Kaylea crashed on the couch. She kept complaining that her knee was hurting. She was screaming at one point. We have decided it is growing pains. We were talking about making the limo a yearly tradition before we left the house, but I think we'll have to wait a couple of years!

You never know what you are going to get with a 3 year old. We learned that on vacation. It was a great surprise though! Go Jordy!
