Santa

{December 13th}

Santa came to our neighborhood clubhouse for a few hours this afternoon so we took advantage of not having to drive somewhere and stand in long lines.

We got there towards the end and there wasn't anyone else there.

Santa was so sweet and we got to spend a lot of time talking to him and taking some pics without feeling rushed.

We were prepared for Everett to be freaked out but he walked right up and sat right up on his lap with no problem!

You could tell he was still pretty nervous but there were no tears.

I think Braxton was also a little nervous since he was pretty quiet.

Braxton told Santa he wanted Star Wars stuff.

Everett kept saying "Santa!" but of course when we turned on the video he wouldn't make a peep.

He's also been saying "ho ho ho!" and after he got his first candy cane when we left, he busted out "candy cane" out of nowhere.

this hug looks a little awkward but it was so sweet.

Thanksgiving 2015

{November 23rd - 28th}

We spent Thanksgiving with my side of the family this year and somehow it worked out that everyone was able to come.

With 12 people staying at our house for several days, it was a little cramped but we had so much fun with all our family here.

Started off the week playing in the dog kennel

Loved having cousins here

We spent one afternoon at Top Golf to get out of the house for a bit.

All of the kids loved it!

 

 

 

We celebrated Mosi and Miles' birthdays!

 

And pretty successfully took some family photos since everyone was together!

 

We didn't have the warmest weather since a snow storm came through, but the little ones had fun.

Snuggles with Grandma Pat, puzzles with Uncle Jeremy, and more snuggles with Izzy
