Last weekend I took the kids to Houston to spend some quality time with my dear friend Sara and her family. Alison and Josh were able to join us as well, so we had a wonderful time catching up and laughing at our children all playing together. I love those ladies and their sweet children. Matt was overjoyed to be able to stay under the same roof with Josh and Isa. Not much sleeping happened, but we still had a great time.
We went to the park and had an always satisfying Chick-fil-a lunch.
We decorated a gingerbread house! Good times. Will ate SO MUCH candy. Good grief.
Christmas comes but once a year right? How many days in a row am I allowed to use that excuse?
The Olivers have an awesome 4-wheeler that the boys LOVED riding on. They went up and down the driveway countless times. Will scooted along on a big wheel type thing and kept up with the big boys.
In an attempt to settle down this group of rambunctious children and prepare them for a good night's sleep we put on a movie. It did the trick all right. It put an end to this very strange and unexplainable "Go Whiskers" chant that they all kept repeating all day long for who knows what reason. They look so cute all sitting there together. We had an awesome time at the Oliver home...they are so gracious to let us come invade their home so close to Christmas! If they'll have us, we'd love to do it again. :)
On the way home the kids & I somehow found ourselves at Shipley's donuts. Whoops. They were tasty.
It's raining!! I can't even remember the last time it did that here. Up next: a delightful ham dinner followed by the Christmas Eve service, dessert here afterward and maybe a visit from Santa for my two sweet boys! Merry Christmas everyone!
