WE LIKE TO PARTY

THE FAMILY CHRISTMAS PARTY
We had such a blast at our annual extended family party with all our cousins, aunts, and uncles. It is always one of the highlights of our holiday season.
Santa Claus came and visited our party and brought each child one gift. Haley was so excited to see him!!
Carson was not so sure.
Santa gave Haley a pair of pajamas with a doll in matching ones. How amazing!! He must know Haley well. She loved it!
THE GINGERBREAD HOUSE PARTY
I threw a girls night out gingerbread house decorating party with some of my close friends. We had dinner and then had a blast giggling and decorating all night. It was super fun!






THE KIDS DECORATING PARTY
We couldn't leave the kids completely out so the next day they got to have their own decorating party. They decorated Christmas trees and did a darling job. They were each so proud of their masterpieces.



THE BIRTHDAY PARTY
December brings JR's birthday and we had a great time celebrating our absolute favorite Dad!! We are sure happy he was born because we just adore him.

Haley's church teacher gave her this window decal and the kids have had a ball rearranging and making the snowman over and over. So sweet!!
Our kids are getting to the age where they want so badly to share a room. Carson asks every night to sleep in Haley's bed. They are so sweet and they just love to be together. We are going to get them a large bed to share, but haven't done so yet. So this is what we found the other night... Haley had climbed in Carson's crib to sleep with him and they'd fallen asleep together. Precious!

We are Thankful for Our Fun November

Little man's birthday!! Carson turned 2. It was quite casual, but lots of fun. We opened gifts and had cake and ice cream with the Bell family. Carson loved his new train from G&G Bell and his vacuum from G&G Mackey so much. He had a great birthday!
