CHRISTMAS 2016

We had a wonderful Christmas!

We left cookies and milk out for Santa and he left a little message for us.

Everyone had fun opening Christmas gifts.








I made The Pioneer Woman's scones for breakfast. It's been a tradition for the past few years along with a delicious breakfast casserole.


Gramma and Grampa came for breakfast.



More snowmen!



A big surprise on Christmas morning was that Daddy had shaved off his beard and mustache in the middle of the night! I was so happy! He's so handsome!! 💑











We went to Gramma an Grampa's house for Christmas dinner. I got to help and wore my new apron.


Snuggles!






Grampa made his famous rolls. Yum!


Gramma made a Shrimp Boil with mussels, sausage, shrimp, corn, and potatoes.




Gramma and the kids played Candyland.





The girls were so excited to give Gramma her special gift. She has always teased them with a pillow she has that says how special grandSONS are. Now the girls and the boys are represented in her living room.

December 2016

December 2016 was of course a time of lots of festivities. 

We cut down our own Christmas tree on our property and the kids and I decorated it.




My sister, Jen got me this ornament to commemorate our Disney trip!




We baked cookies. We decorated cookies.










Then...we took the cookies and some friends and went caroling!

I took Jesse to "Breakfast with Santa"


My Mom, Allison, Clara, and I went to a Ladies Christmas night with my Sister in law and nieces. We had our Christian Motorcyclists Association Christmas party with our chapter.


My Mom had a Christmas Tea Party.


Allison made us all brand new stockings!





Snowmen were built.



Cocoa was sipped.


Coffee was chugged.


Cheeks were chilled.


💗 And a family photo of us, just as we are, was taken. 💗


I will save Christmas for the next post.
