Christmas at Our House

On Monday, the 23rd, Santa came to our house.
We had an early dinner, took baths, and got in pjs early.
 The boys put cookies out for Santa.

 They sprinkled Reindeer Food on the patio.

 We took a ride around the lake to look at Christmas Lights.
When we got home Santa had made his visit!
Dane was so excited!




 We had a fun time opening gifts.







The boys were so excited about everything they got.  Dane said many times, "This is just what I wanted!"

Random December Post

I am far behind so here is a bunch of random pictures from the month of December.

St. Nick came to preschool and left Dane gifts.

School was dismissed at noon on Thursday, December 5th because of bad weather.
Cuddling on the couch when we got home
It was snowing hard. 
Before we went to bed we got the call that school would be off the next day.
 We woke up to over 11 inches.

 Reese played a lot of hide and seek.

 Dave went to work so once Reese laid down for a nap Dane and I ventured outside for a few minutes.

 I stayed close to the house to listen in case Reese woke up and Dane played in the yard.


 When Reese got up and found all of Dane's winter accessories he wanted to go out as well.
 It took Dave an hour and a half to get home, but once he did the boys all went outside.


 This snow has made Reese obsessed with boots, gloves, and hats.
The next morning he was up early and had some rain boots on before he could even get dressed.

 We were snowed in the entire weekend.
We colored.

 Dane had some computer time.
 Our neighbor came over with some art supplies for Dane.
 Lauren helped make sugar cookies.


 How many days until Christmas chain...
 Some movie time....
 A friend sent me a picture of the road leading to our subdivision.
 I was so excited about a girls night out....Wine and appetizer party at Katie's house.
Lots of delicious food......

 Katie with her sisters, sister in laws, mom, and mother in law.
 The next day we had plans to make cookies at my grandma's house, but it snowed and the roads weren't the best.  The kids had a blast in the snow....along with Uncle Tom and Aunt Katie.
 Tedi didn't know what to think about the snow.
