The Bunch Go See A Christmas Story Live


 Ever since A Christmas Story Musical came out on TV several years ago, we always watch it every Christmas. This year Bass Hall was performing it for a weekend and A bought us all tickets to go and see it! Unfortunately, she was still crazy sick and really didn't get to thoroughly enjoy it, but the rest of us had a fabulous time! We were all laughing and just really enjoying our day. We also wandered around Sundance square and took pictures with all the Christmas decor. I will say their large Christmas tree looked pretty sad. It was very sparse and looked liked it died a couple of months ago. However, the ornaments and lights were pretty.

Seeing all the festive decor really puts you in the Christmas spirit! I love Christmas!!

Someone was letting their kids play in the water! It was pretty cold!! The tree didn't look too bad from a far.

The seats in the balcony were nice. Honestly, I think I like sitting in the balcony better than on the floor. You can see more and the restroom is easier to get to so you miss the crazy lines.

As you can see, the tree up close was very sparse and sad.

It's tradition.

A managed to take me down with her and I was pretty ill this week too, but thankfully it was after our show. A had it worse than I did and I actually ended up taking her to Urgent Care. She was basically told just to suck it up and deal with it because it's viral so they can't give her any antibiotics. They did prescribe some crazy strong cough and nausea medication. It basically just knocked her out and let her sleep. I think the worst part was just how stopped up our heads were. It didn't really ever settle in our chests, but it felt like I couldn't breath out of my nose for days! We're both on the mend now though thank goodness. Luckily, T and D haven't been sick.

So far this has been a great Christmas season, illness aside.  I was pretty much done shopping before December and it's been very low stress. I am just enjoying the holidays with my family. I hope everyone else is too! 

T just watched Mission Impossible so his night to do Cookie reflects that. It was pretty good.

On A's night, she had Cookie play Christmas Monopoly. The cats really loved this one and I am still finding hotels and dice under the furniture!😂 Noelle is also driving us crazy with getting in the tree. My tree might not make it to Christmas or she will live bedroom. One of the two.

T made cookies not only for his troop, but also for A's work.🥰

The Bunch Start Birthday Week

  Yes, my Mom had my name misspelled on the cake.😂 It was still yummy so it was all good. T, A, and I all have our birthdays within a week and a half. Which means there is a crazy amount of sugar within those 10 days. We always like to make whoever's birthday it is feel special for the day. We watch what they want,do activities they like, eat what they pick, do their chores for them, etc. It not usually too expensive, but just a fun day where it's focused on them. The kids use to use their days to rule like little kings and queens, but have become a lot calmer in their "old" age since they get to do whatever they want most of the time anyways. We are a pretty close family and do a lot of things together all the time anyways, but on birthdays we still make sure we defer to the birthday boy/girl. My birthday is first and the kids do so many nice things for me all the time, but they put forth an extra effort on my birthday. This year A even woke up early to turn the cof...

The Bunch Visit Family

  We had fun playing some board games...and it wasn't even a fun jar idea! We just did it because it sounded like fun! The fun jar has been a little slow being implemented this year. T made sure to let me know! We're making up for it next week by drawing several things.  We have had a wonderfully busy week visiting family and getting things done around the house. We went over to my parents house to celebrate Father's Day and while the boys played games with Grandpa, the girls went with Grandma to show her what all the fuss about Trader Joe's is about. She enjoyed looking at all the different things and even found a few gems of her own. It was a nice day and fun to get out together for a little bit. We had a great day!🥰 We picked up Whataburger for my Dad as a treat and my mom made some tots and a side salad up to go with it.💗 We also had a nice long visit with our Aunt P. She's been under the weather and we hadn't had a visit in a couple weeks so it was nice t...

The Bunch Have A Fantastic Week!

  Pickleball is always fun! Now that the weather has been nicer, albeit super windy, we have been trying to do our weekly pickleball match. Basically, this week whoever was playing with the wind won! We still have fun playing even when it is windy. In fact, playing in the wind probably makes us have more fun. The wind gusts sometimes pick the ball up and make it do some funny things, like getting the ball and pushing it back onto your side so you lose a point or blowing it three courts over! Luckily, we are usually the only ones there so it doesn't matter if we play across 4 courts. Afterwards, we usually go get some ice cream/ frozen yogurt and just enjoy our outing.  T went camping this weekend with his troop. They worked on orienteering, which I was super happy about since T needs to work on that something fierce, but unfortunately the boys in troop aren't much better than him at orienteering and the first guy oriented them upside down on the first one so they basically was...
