We celebrated a lot this CHRISTmas! It was fun, crazy, and we would not have changed a thing! Here are pictures of our CHRISTmas eve and CHRISTmas day!! Santa really out did himself this year...

Real Life was a lot better, but you will get the idea!

CHRISTmas Eve

Nah-Nah and Yah-Yah's house!

Luke really REALLY loves
Carsen Elise!!

Drew and Carsen Elise

Brayden got Star Wars
sandwich cutters...

Carsen Elise got a pogo too!!

and Walker got a toy car!

!!CHRISTmas MORNING at OUR HOUSE!!

Santa came... and he left a trail all over
the house!!! That silly man got Rudolph's food
all over his feet and tracked it in...

Now everyone can sleep together with
no more tears!!

and Walker James found the
BIG PRESENT!!!

Carsen Elise is pretty darn good at
riding a motorcycle for being only 5yrs!!

and Brayden having no trouble
at age 6yrs riding!!

...even Walker James got in on
the action!!
Needless to say WE ALL LOVE this little bike!!
I too can ride this and I have to admit that its
pretty darn fun!!!

yes Cade was around for all
the festivities just busy either...

...crawling around or napping or eating!!
This little guy is too precious!!

Celebrate...

...Good Times, Come On...

I know its not a CHRISTmas song, but it works for this post!!
Michael's parents and brother were able to be here for the CHRISTmas programs, which in itself the best present ever!! We did an early CHRISTmas with them and I have to say they find the most unique and amazing gifts!! Everyone had a great time and LOVED their presents!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for loving us the way that you do and doing what you do with us and for us!!
Merry CHRISTmas Grandma, Poppa, and Marky!!

ALL the kids play with this!

Let It Snow...

...Let It Snow, Let It Snow...
and snow it did with a little bit of help from Chesapeake!!
Winter on Western turned out to be a pretty great night for our little family!
Nichols Hills shops were open serving cookies, hot chocolate, and they even had carolers walking up and down the square!
Then in the field there was SNOW!!!

Carsen showing us a snow ball!

Carsen Elise
how can you not love her?!?

all having too much fun in the snow!

It's Beginning...

...To Look A Lot Like CHRISTmas...

Brayden and Carsen Elise both had their CHRISTmas programs at school! Brayden did so great and loved every minute of the stage light!! Carsen Elise on the other hand did not and had nothing to do with it, in fact, she sat with me in my lap and watched her classmates! What is that sang, "Like Mother Like Daughter"
They are both precious and did a great job!!
We are so blessed and thankful!

Brayden's class getting
ready to sing...

Michael and me in it... WOW!!
