Neighbor Christmas Party

Yesterday we had a neighborhood Christmas party for the kids. It was so much fun. A few weeks ago they drew each other's names for presents and us moms started planning the activities! We played Don't Eat Rudy, the kids had to find Santa's candy canes that the Orton's elf stole from Santa, decorated sugar cookies and had hot chocolate and opened presents.

It was so much fun! The kids loved it.We sure love our friends!

Jasper Party

It was the Jasper Christmas party over the weekend. It was a lot of fun and thanks to Aunt Sharon for the fun games and putting everything together! I think Makenna's favorite thing though is the chimes that Grandma Jasper brings. I think the kids did pretty good.

Christmas Activites

I love this time of year and the fun activities that we can do with the kids! We were able to go see Santa and their was no crying!

 On Sunday afternoon while Caleb was taking a nap Makenna and Chase decorated a gingerbread house. They loved it and I loved that it was in a nice package all ready to go so I didn't have to do anything:)

 Makenna also had a first grade Christmas program. It was the cutest thing. They sang all of these Christmas songs, and actions. My favorite was them singing All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth and they had a slide show of all the kids with their missing teeth. Loved it!

Snow

It snowed for the first time last week(and has been several days since.) The kids were so excited to go out in it. Makenna asked if she could stay home from school so she could stay and play in the snow! My answer was no but the boys sure had fun!

Random

These are just some random silly pictures off my phone. Caleb is in need of a haircut for sure and Makenna thinks its fun to spike up his hair!

 Caleb and I were just making silly faces and taking pictures. He thought he was pretty funny!

City Lights

 We took the kids to look at the city lights over the weekend and it was fun as always. Afterwards we went to YoGo for a treat!

Note to Self

Do not let Steve take the kids to get their hair cut because they might come back with blue hair!
