Merry Christmas!!

We just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas!! We are experiencing our very first white Christmas here in West Texas. I am loving it and forgot how much I really do love the snow. Yesterday me and the kids got all of our snow gear one and headed out and made a snowman. What fun!!! We hope you all are enjoying time with your family and having a Merry Christmas!!! Wishing you all a Merry Christmas from my family to yours!!

Snow Day

We don't get snow very often and when we do we get a SNOW DAY!! Parker was so excited to not have to go to school. And I could barely get him to eat breakfast before he was out the door. Both he and Addison had a great time out in the cold. It stuck around for a few days and so they really got a few days to play in the snow. Parker was showing Addison how to do snow angels....Addison looked at him like he was crazy for laying down in the snow. It was hilarious!! Kids are hoping for another snow day really soon!!

Big Girl

So our little Kate has decided that she needs to get around like the big kids. I had to move her crib down the other day because we found her standing in it. She has started crawling and thinks she is big stuff. I cannot believe how fast time has gone. This is a recent photo of her. She loves to chew on socks, which is good news for her because her siblings think they belong anywhere but in the laundry or their drawer or even their feet. Before we know she is going to be walking around. I have to pinch myself and say, yes she is only 8 months old. I think she will be crawling before the end of the year.

North Pole Breakfast

We started a new tradition at our house this year. We started off December with a North Pole Breakfast. I got the idea here, so I really cannot take any credit for this. I just LOVED the idea and it has been fun so far. Our elves name is Buster and he brought us a great breakfast from Santa. He brought snow covered donuts, Reindeer Kisses (white chocolate chips) and peppermint sticks, and also glacier hot cocoa. They also got little notes from Buster and they loved reading those. The kids loved it and I think their favorite part was getting all this yummy stuff for breakfast. I would never do that. Thanks Buster. Luckily they have a mommy and she made them pancakes. There is a book that goes along with it. The Elf on the Shelf and he comes and goes every night. The kids can talk to him and send messages to Santa, which they have, and also they cannot touch him, or he loses his magic. And they have been pretty good about not touching him. I am actually surprised about it. Now every morning the kids watch for him and see the new places he sits and what he brings or the trouble he causes. It depends on how they have been acting.
