CHRISTMAS 2012

Went something like this...Christmas Eve at Outback for our family of four, dessert at the Haight's, late bedtime, so no cookies for Santa, luckily he still found our house the next morning...where we had a first time stocking fill, Christmas day breakfast and lunch with both grandparents, a near pancake mishap, lots of goods for the kids, and once again Collin surprised me with a sweet gift..my own Spyder jacket/sweater!  I guess he was sick of me wearing his!  :)  We even got to hook up at the end of the day with the Williamson's for a little park time.  Oh, and the most shocking part...ONLY 20 PICTURES taken the entire day!  So without further ado...here's a peek into our holiday.

 

The calm before the storm...

 

The satisfied & happy Christmas duo...

 

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Our Dec. 21st Christmas

Every year, life seems to get busier, and having a pilot in the family doesn't make it any easier.  So, we make do, and sometimes that means having Christmas a little earlier.  Believe me...the kids are more than happy to oblige!  We did Christmas this past Friday with Collin's fam & had a great ol' time!

The cousins...

Getting down to business...

 

Christian's big score!

 

Cutter testing out the goods.

 

Yep...I'd say it was a good day!

 

FORE!

Yesterday Christian had a field trip with his after school golf group.  He left school early, and got to go practice his newly acquired skills at the Anthem Country Club!  Lucky for him, Collin was his chaperone for the event!  Although...Collin might not have been as lucky.  He got stuck with one wild bunch of kids!  Ohhhh...the things we do for our kids!

Good job Collin on the picture taking!
