We went to Bass Pro Shops in Leeds, AL the other day. Santa was already there so Chase ran to him. Peyton was a little freaked out. He was too interested in the stock car race cars and rc monster trucks they had for the kids to drive. Both kids made out their Santa lists and I was completely surprised by the fact that Chase, who never stops pointing out what he wants for Christmas when we are in range of toys at any store, only requested 2 items in his letter. He must have been tired that evening. Do you think he will mind when he only gets those 2 toys? I can tell him when he complains of the lack of toys on Chrsitmas morning that that was all he asked for. I don't think it will go over well though. Peyton finally relented and went to sit on Santa's lap. Both boys got their pics taken with Santa. So cute.
Craig has primed the family room and still needs to prime the bathroom. The walls around the shower are awaiting the backer board as well. Then he will paint the rooms. We purchased slate tile for the floor since the wood floor we put down started squeaking like crazy. Craig can't stand it. I liked it cause it was free, oh well. I do love slate tiles though. We talked about putting slate on the walls around the shower that match the floor. Time will tell. Right now all Craig can think about is hunting. I am afraid that with the holidays coming up and with the ongoing hunting season, that little will get done in the basement in the next 2 months.
