The 3 Days Before Christmas

Our neighborhood kids caroled around our streets!

Ady's dance team had a gift exchange and brunch!

We took the kids to see A Christmas Carol! They all loved it!

Then we head to the Gaylord to meet Gramma and Poppa and Uncle Bean who had just arrived in town!

The next day we made cookies to decorate on Christmas Eve...

And gingerbread houses of course...

Then Christmas Eve morning we decorated cookies with both sets of grandparents...

Then got all dressed up for Christmas Eve Service...

... where Will fell asleep...

... and Ady loved the snow...

... followed by my dads bourbon slush...

... and then Drew read Twas The Night Before Christmas...

... and then we ended the night with some games...

Polar Express Party

Our annual Polar Express party was another hit! We love serving hot chocolate and treats to our friends! Derek reading the book to all of the kiddos is so sweet and this year we bought a snow machine!

Our middle school hot chocolate bar servers...

Mid December Happenings

The littles and I attended the Christmas show at church while Will was recovering from his surgery...

And we watched lots and lots of Holiday movies with hot chocolate!

Ady had her Christmas week at dance and got to dress as festive as she could!

I was mystery reader for Ady's classroom!

She also had her Holiday party that week where we played Minute to Win It games!

Derek and I got to get all dressed up for a Holiday party!

We did the drive through lights and they were great!

More movie time...
