Christmas Fun

Sprinkling reindeer food
Santa's remains...

Snuggled in his new bunk bed
Lovin' his new Yoda friend
Brothers and best buddies
Our family had a great Christmas this year! The boys got bunk beds and could not have been more excited! They actually ask if they can go to bed now to snuggle in their beds.
They spread lots of reindeer food for Santa's reindeer and left mint chocolate chip cookies and milk for Santa. Breakfast consisted of sticky buns and milk and later we had family come over to enjoy a late lunch. 10 adults and 2 kids was quite a house full - the boys had so much fun showing off all their new toys.

"Charlie"

caught playing Candyland with our Webkinz

hiding in the Christmas tree with the boys underwear decorating the tree



Our Elf Charlie has gotten into lots of mischief this holiday season. My boys are so excited every morning to see just what he's gotten into each night. It really has made the month of December a fun one for all of us.

Brotherly Love



My boys just love each other so much-most of the time, that is. After a long day, you can hear them tell each other, "I don't like you anymore." Mom knows the real story-they are the best of friends and my hope is that they ALWAYS will be!

Catchin' some critters
Scary Spider
Such beautiful flowers!
The swamp of Cypress Gardens
Big Brother's class went of a field trip to Cypress Gardens that I chaperoned a while back. It was such a beautiful place and so undiscovered. I was shocked at how noncommercial it was-although they did have a gift shop. They took us on a 20 minute canoe ride thru the swamp, gave us a tour of the butterfly house, gave us a lesson on insects and pollination, pond poking and ate lunch at picnic tables. It was so much fun!
