Not done yet

I can't seem to get the pictures to load right now. I will get the rest of the month posted before it's over!

Medtronic Christmas Party

This year, we continued our annual attendance to the Medtronic Children's "Holiday" Party. It was a lot of fun, as usual. It gets to be more and more fun as the kids get older and can really enjoy some of the entertainment/games. I wasn't too thrilled about being dragged on stage for the "kids over 25 contest" but, sometimes you just have to put your pride aside...for the sake of the children. We also got our Santa picture while we were there. Ryan wasn't quite as scared of him as last year, but still wouldn't sit on his lap. Jazmin didn't cry when we put her on his lap, but she was most certainly not happy about it. Jake....well, if you can't tell, he was DEFINITELY not happy about being there!

Well, try as I might, I can't get the Santa picture on here. I'll get Joel to help me and get it on as soon as possible.



Taz strikes again...and is training in "Jake the Snake"




It's a busy morning, I don't remember what we were rushing about doing, but I was pre-occupied, and the boys were left unattended. They decided the tree was over-decorated, and make quick work of fixing it. I think we lost a total of 10-15 balls, maybe more.

Giggle boxes

Playing in the first recordable snowfall




We bundled the kids up and headed out to play. It was super cold, and you can tell by looking at their cheeks, all rosy red! I think it may have taken longer to get bundled up, than we spent actually playing. Oh well, they had fun!

Don't give up on me!

I promise by the time the weekend is over, I will have you all caught up on our month of December. It's been busy, and virtually impossible to find enough time to post, but I am bound and determined to make it happen. Check back soon and see the updates!

Decorating Christmas cookies


They aren't the most beautiful things, but they taste good and the kids had fun!
