It's the most wonderful time of the year...

I just LOVE this time of year!!! We've had such a busy few weeks with so many fun activities!! The kids loved decorating the tree this year! We had around five casualties and I had to relinquish control and allow them to put five ornaments on one branch, but they were so excited and it was a joy to watch!
How do you like Collier's outfit :)
Ta Da!!!!

We pulled out all the stops this year with some fun inflatables! Michael and the boys worked very hard to pick the perfect spot!
One Saturday we went to Bass Pro Shops where they have so many fun, FREE activities!

Anderson was in a sweet Christmas program with his 3K class--they sang Rudolph and he looked adorable in his antlers!

Blowing a kiss at the end...
Griffin's class took a field trip to a nursing home to sing some Christmas songs to the residents!
"The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head..."

When they finished singing the kids brought cards they made to the sweet people watching. One of Michael's old football coaches happens to live there, so it was really special for Griffin to bring his card to him!

Collier loves the Christmas tree!


We took the kids to get their picture taken with Santa. Collier wasn't too sure about it and at first she didn't want to sit with him, but we told her he was going to give her some cookies and so she hopped in! She was still pretty unsure, but in last year's picture with Santa she was crying, so at least we're improving!!
One of our favorite traditions is to drive around looking at Christmas lights! We loaded up in the car with some hot chocolate and had a great time!
One of our favorites...
I hope you all are enjoying the season!!!
