Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas!! Our house was crazy this year and I feel like I didn't take enough pictures. Boo. We had our entire family over to our house on Christmas morning for breakfast and to see the kiddos, so it was hopping in our living room! I guess I was busy playing with the kids and making breakfast, I only got a few pics. The kids had a wonderful Christmas and we are enjoying playing with all our new things. Christmas morning was filled with family, food and then church. Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!!!

Christmas Eve!

Christmas Eve was jam-packed for us this year! Joe and I started off the morning by swapping presents with each other -- we both got lots of essential things this year-- clothes, shoes, nothing too exciting!! After that, we headed to PawPaw and LaLa's house for a Christmas Brunch. the food was yummy and the kiddos got lots of fun gifts! Mia did not want to have her pic taken, but once she opened her Minnie Mouse vacuum cleaner, she was as happy as can be!!

 

 

 

 

After we left PawPaw and LaLa's house, we headed to my house for Christmas with all my family. It was lots of fun -- we ended up leaving with 4 gigantic lawn bags full of toys for the kids. Overkill!!!

Santa at School and a Christmas Program

The kids school had a Breakfast with Santa -- another attempt to get a picture with Mia and Santa, another failure. Boo. Maybe next year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The kids last day of school they had a Christmas Program. It was precious. I love nothing more than to see and hear my babies singing about the real meaning of Christmas. They both did so good -- they sang their little hearts out! I love you kiddos so so much!!

 

 

 

 

This is a picture Reese's class did for some of their room decorations. Reese and Elliot decided they were going to have their picture made together -- she tells me all the time she's going to marry Elliot. Oh.My.Gosh.

Santa Unsuccess

 

We took the kids to breakfast with Santa at the Country Club and it was not a success. Mia HATES Santa. She screamed and wailed like you've never heard before -- love that I have the "classic" screaming with Santa pic, hate that I am traumatizing my child!

Disney World Day 5

Day 5 was spent at the Magic Kingdom -- it was the grand finale!! This was our longest day there -- we started off with breakfast with Winnie the Pooh at 9am, and the Very Merry Christmas Party was that night and we didn't leave the park until 11pm. That's 14 hours of Magic Kingdom fun! WE WERE EXHAUSTED!!!  We rode every ride there at least twice, and their favorites several times. Reese and Charlie LOVED Splash Mountain -- Reese would ride with her hands up in the air when the ride went down the HUGE hill -- she's way braver than I am!  It was such a good time. So sad to leave this wonderful place! Cannot wait to go back and take sweet Mia!!
