Adding a little ethnic diversity to our Christmas...

One year John and I were shopping for Christmas decorations, and we stumbled upon some awesome decorations - a black Santa and a black angel. Of course we purchased them, and proudly displayed them on our front porch. One year my MIL commented that "Santa has a tan." I had to correct her, "No, he is black."

We are adding some ethnic diversity to our boring, lower middle class, predominantly white neighborhood.

Happy Goat

Porgie has an imaginary friend. Her name is Happy Goat. As you might have guessed, she is a goat, who happens to be very happy. Sometimes the goat is blue. Sometimes she is green. She sleeps in a goat bed in Porgie's room. It is extremely funny to hear her talk about Happy Goat. Just today, the goat was wearing a bathing suit and was swimming in the "ocean" with the kids...

In case you were wondering, Happy Goat is standing on the right:)

Foolish Frog

Did you know that Scholastic has a DVD series? My kids really love the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom DVD. Honestly, I have kind of fallen in love with the DVD too. Especially this song..



I love it! I actually listen to it on YouTube when my kids are sleeping. Watch it a few times, and you'll be hooked too:)
