Well last weekend we went to a staff party. Me and Buffy actually went out on our own for the first time since we moved. We had a youth come and stay with the kids while we went (Thanks Corie!). The meal at "Z's" was great and it was a great time to spend with the staff away from the office environment. We had a gift exchange at the end as a kind of late Christmas type party. We all opened up the gifts and all that jazz. Here is where it gets funny. Buffy opened her gift bag and kind of laid the tissue paper aside. She didn't notice she laid it right on top of the candle. Well needless to say it caught afire. Buffy not noticing still looks into the bag while others are trying to draw our attention to the blaze set beside her. Once noticed Buffy says "Oh no!" and I began to blow it out. A bit of smoke rose from the table but all is well. Luckily the fire alarm didn't detect it because Buffy was right below the sprinkler. Well you know what I did don't you??? That's right Camera time from the Phone:

That is sooo funny.
I guess the kids did fine with the babysitter. I'm glad that you both got to get out by yourselves. You have to do that every now and then. It is harder when you live away from family. You just don't know who to trust. But you have a wonderful church family and I'm sure that there are plenty folks that can help you out every now and then.
I read on Buffy's site that Chloe is potty-training. I still remember Hannah wanting to go potty just so I would sit in there with her and sing while she banged two shells from the beach together.
