Christmas

Christmas morning is always so fun.  Watching the excitement of the little ones. Addyson wasn't as animated as usual due to her cold but she loved  every minute of it.  Elmo was a hit for Brycen.   This year Mimi and Papa came to watch the kids open presents.  It was nice to have them a part of that.  After we exchange gifts, Nana made some Breakfast Enchiladas that were killer with Mimosas.  In the afternoon we gathered with other family for Christmas Dinner.  It was a really nice day to spend with loved ones.  Oh how I love the holidays!

Brycen's 2nd Birthday Party!

Brycen's 2nd Birthday!

Christmas time!

During the month of December we have been busy with many fun events.  We went to see Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer at Casa Manana and got to eat at Joe T. Garcia's in Fort Worth.  We went through the Prairie Lights and got to play on rides and see Santa.  Brycen had his 2nd Birthday Party. We went to Abilene for Christmas to see Nana and Peeps and the rest of the family.  While we were in Abilene Addyson and Brycen caught colds which lead to ear infections.  (They are still recovering.)  Nana, Paul and I all came down with a stomach bug as well.  Now we are resting up to jump back in the swing of things on Monday.  We had lots of fun with Friends and family.  Oh how Christmas break goes by so fast!

Christmas Activities

Addy made her first gingerbread house at school she was so excited to share it with Bubba.  Saturday we went to the YMCA Christmas Party were we saw Santa.  Brycen cried as usual when I put him on Santa's lap.  Addyson and her friend Ava got a picture with Santa too!  The girls loved Santa so much we had to make them give the other little kids in line a turn.

Our Sunday Ritual

Since the fall, we have tried to relax on Sundays by going to church, eating lunch, taking a nap and then heading to the park to play and ride bikes through the trails.  Addyson and Brycen love it.  This Sunday after a playing and riding at the park we went out for ice cream.  Yum Yum!
