Christmas Break, Week 1

Now that Christmas break is here we are actually able to breathe while partying!  Ha!  

Friday night we drove to Garland to see a living Nativity and eat dinner with Grammy Elaine.  The kids got to decorate cookies (again)- we'll just call December "cookie" month.  
Long story short our Elf happened to gift the kids 4 rockin seats at the Moviehouse and Eatery (thanks MV) to see the new Star Wars movie on Saturday morning.  It was at 9 am so we had pancakes and bacon while we watched.  It was absolutely AWESOME!! 




Later that same day Grady had a paintball birthday party.  He had a great time and only left with a few bruises!
That night we had a Christmas party with baseball friends.  It was a fantastic time, as usual!  
Sunday morning we took the kids to the Galleria to see the huge tree and finish up Christmas shopping.  

Sunday night Uncle Jerry and Auntie Val came in town.  So, the boys all drove back to Garland to have dinner and fun.  They had a great time!  
Sunday also was our 12th anniversary!  We plan to celebrate later in the week.  I wouldn't want to do "life" with anybody else!
The boys have insisted on sleepovers with each other every night- it's pretty sweet!  
Monday the weather was just beautiful and unseasonably warm for December so I took the kids to the park and we had a picnic lunch.  
Monday night we went with friends to see  Ice at the Gaylord.  It was such a good time!  
Snowballs



Shocked that they're on the nice list... 




Tuesday, Kristen and I took all 4 boys to wander the mall at Northpark and see the Trains.  It was crazy fun!




This picture cracks me up.  I wonder what they were discussing...
Tuesday night after dinner we got on our pajamas and got Starbucks and drove around looking at Christmas lights.  I'm not sure if it was the warm drink or exhaustion from all our fun but both kids were out in 30 minutes flat!  
Christmas is just 2 days away.  We are all SUPER excited!!  Let the Christmas traditions continue...
