Getting Ready for Christmas

The boys were so excited about Christmas this year and it was really fun to do activities to get ready for it with them.  I love the holidays and love that I have someone around with the same level of enthusiasm!  They of course thoroughly enjoyed making cookies. 

 We enjoyed the warm days we had in December and Carter thought it was fun driving his car through the snow and pushing it out when he got stuck (he dressed himself with his clothes on backwards this day...he didn't want to change it)
 Owen enjoyed watching his crazy brother push around his car
 Their favorite part - decorating the cookies
 Landon just eats each cookie as soon as he's done decorating it

 Courtney had shown me a really cute picture her sister-in-law had of all her kids on their bed in their Christmas jammies and we decided to try to recreate it...hers turned out much better!  This was the best one. 
 Most were like this with Carter and Landon bouncing around/being blurry and Owen laying there not sure what was happening. 


 Much easier to get a picture of this guy these days


 We also headed to Zoo Lights with Courtney and Emmery and saw Santa
 Carter stayed back about 20 feet from Santa and wouldn't get any closer.  Landon would only give him a high 5
 again, Owen is the only one who cooperates :)




We met Courtney and Emmery (we hung out a lot in December apparently) at Monkey Bizness and all the kids ran around, decorated cookies and did some crafts - lots of fun!

I LOVE your bed pics :)
And the fact that only Owen cooperates. Just wait until he starts getting more mobile!
