Holiday Happenings

December is always a fun month as you get in the Christmas spirit.  Here's some of our holiday fun.

 Reading Elf on the Shelf

 Finding Chippey each morning. 

 Decorating the tree.  Lots of low plastic balls.  :)  The kids go then we finish the rest.  It's always exciting going through our ornaments.  We traditionally get ornaments at the places we go.  It's sweet to remember all our trips and events from over the years.

 The advent calendar has been a huge hit in the recent years.  Attack of the chocolate!

 Trenton claims he is Chippey.  He likes to play it as a game.  He tells you to go to sleep and come find him.  He's sitting somewhere around the house with his mischievous grin.  His favorite place is on top of the playhouse.

 Kevin did a great job with the outside lights!  In addition to the front beds, our back railing is wrapped.  It looks nice through the woods.

 This is how the playroom looks at night.  It's a beautiful, peaceful place.  Well, some of the time....

This is how it looks during the day. 

 Riding the infamous Pink Pig at Lenox Mall.

Twice!  Bennett was definitely hesitant at first but he kept asking for more after each ride.  He became comfortable real fast!

 Trenton liked all the displays.  Bennett just really liked that it was a ride. 

 He wouldn't even let me put my arm around him.  He had to feel like a big boy riding all on his own.  What?  My baby boy is only 1 1/2!   

 These boys are sticker fanatics!  They had them all over!
