Ayden's Magical first Santa Moment...

Ayden had a magical experience with Santa. Garrett loved the company Christmas party. I thought I would freak when I turned around and saw Garrett driving his own car. (He is only 2!!) We are grateful he is not getting his license any time soon. Phew...

Jordan was in her first Christmas pageant. The boys were

shepherds and the girls were angels. Jordan was not sure why she didn't get to choose her costume. In the end, she did a fantastic job and it was a show that brought tears to my eyes.

Like most Christmas pictures, we had a very calming photo session. All the kids sat down looked right at the camera on the first shot and smiled joyously. Yeah right!!! Not even close. Why they call it happy hour.

We are enjoying the "cooler" weather and looking for every chance to put on our fleeces. Decorating isn't the same in the heat, but we are getting use to it.

The kids are all at great ages to enjoy the holiday. We love getting all the family Christmas pictures! It is hard to not be thankful for what we have this year. Have a wonderful holiday!!
