Christmas Time!

 
Christmas time is always just so fun, this year it was bittersweet though because our good friends the Taylors, were moving away. Our year and a half with them just flew by!! Kai and Eliza sharing one last treat together!

 Coloring!
 McKean and Sariah playing together!


 
The guys went shooting one day together so they decided to have a gun cleaning party together one night!
 
 We decorated Ginger Bread houses with the Kecks. It was a good time.
 The Keck's had a hard time getting their's to stay together. Humidity does weird things.
 Kai had a blast putting on all the candy!

Kai showing off her finished project, that she proceeded to sneak candy off of the during the next few weeks!
Andrea and Madi getting in the Christmas spirit! 
One night we got a visitor that was sent to us straight from the north pole. Santa sent us one of his elf's who Kailie named Teddybear elf. He stayed to check on the kids and report to Santa. Santa was a little unclear whether or not the kids could touch him so he got some love. He has a little pouch in front that he put treats or notes from Santa. We loved having Teddy Bear in our home!

Kailie with her treats for her gymnastics/preschool coaches.
Kai and Mommy putting together our chocolate nativities for our friends. 
One night Kai and I headed up to the Bass Pro Shop to see Santa and do all of the fun things we had heard about. Well, it was super crowded, and we didn't get to see Santa because they were out of tickets. The Keck's came to meet us and poor Mady threw up right as they got there!! 
 Fun times!
 The Moose Merry-go-round was a hit!
Kai had fun shooting these guns, So did I!

On Christmas Eve we headed to Sea World and randomly met up with the Reeves. 
We did the little Polar Express train.
Kai and Kylie waited ever so patiently for their turn.

McKean loved the train but not too big a fan of the gazillion photos!

 Of course it can't be Christmas time without dressing up in our Christmas church clothes.

These two are always happy when treats are involved!
Sometimes they look so much alike!
 
This captures McKean perfectly. It matches his love for food and shows how he keeps it in his mouth forever.


Kai and her silly smile!
