Second Christmas

Last thursday we had our 2nd Christmas. This time it was our little family's christmas. We wanted the boys to have some time to play with their car and bike before we left on christmas vacation. It was a great morning.

We all got dressed and then headed to Northpark at 9 am. I went in and got a ticket for the boys to see santa (we were #14)

Then we went and had a nice breakfast at Breadwinners. Then back to the mall where we went through the Trains exhibit. How could you go wrong...2 boys and a room full of trains?

Then off to santa story time which ended at 11:30. Santa started taking pics with kids at 11:45. The boys were on his lap at 12:15. Quade thanked him for his stocking present (some cars)...i'm sure Santa's not used to having kids thank him for presents. =)

Price of course was not a fan of the big man in red.

"Oh McFun it is to ride..."

This is quade's version of jingle bells. His back up singer was more concerned with wardrobe than singing. please take note that due to budget cuts (ya'll know the state of the economy) we had to forego the one-horse open sleigh for a knitted blanket...enjoy.

Christmas: Take One

Or "First Christmas"...

During our trip to Houston we not only celebrated Thanksgiving, we also had Christmas Eve (on black Friday) which means a nice dinner out that evening and opened our matching pjs AND Christmas (on that Saturday) which means opening stockings, then presents (one person at a time), and then a fun family evening out (rocket city games!!).

Here are the pics from Christmas preparation and celebration:

what our car looks like with 4 boys (aged 1,2,3, & 4)

quade and price tried to help put the lights up, but unfortunately too many lights were broken during the experience...so they stuck to decorating.

I was going to post a video here but it really deserves it's own post, see post below!!
