Our good friends the Jenkins gave the boys some fake moustaches for Christmas. Those who know us well know that is a favorite with our boys. Well halfway into the day on Christmas I looked up at our nice family pictures and they had been moustached!!! Thanks Kirk and Julie!!!
We had a great Christmas!!! It seems like weeks of decorating, shopping and wrapping are over in seconds! It's all worth it though! The kids were good this year and slept in until 7:00 (last year they tried to get us up at 4:30). The unwrapping frenzy was over quickly but the kids were happy with their gifts! It was fun to have Mema and Grandpa with us this year! We are so thankful to have such wonderful family and friends who take such good care of us! Merry Christmas!
Tonight was our annual family Christmas party. Mitch decided that he wanted to show his Christmas spirit by wearing a Christmas sweater. So off to the D.I we went and the craft store and this is what he ended up wearing that night. I am a little worried that he may be losing his mind! Love that kid! Maddi just wore a normal sweater, Thomas had fun building his gingerbread house and Jacob made us proud by winning the musical chairs game! he was so excited he won that he pumped his fists in the air.
O.K so they really are graham cracker houses! Every year we have a family night where we make our gingerbread houses. It is always a lot of fun and usually ends up with the kids trying to stuff as much candy inside their houses as they can fit! This was the first year Jacob did his all on his own( I only held up the walls for him as he iced them.) Good times!
Maddi went to the Christmas dance Saturday night.She took a good friend of hers named Mark that she has known all of her life. They had a great time and she looked so pretty. These pictures were taken at the end of the night after dancing. I will postthe pictures from her camera after she gets home from school.
I am married to the most awesome man in the world who keeps me laughing every day. We have the BEST 4 kids EVER. They are growing up WAY too fast!!!! They always make us proud, they are amazing! I spend most of my time in the car driving them around to their various activities! One day my dream is to not have to drive a big old mini van and have a tiny little red convertable bug!
