Merry Christmas!

Ha, This took a long time for me to narrate.
Here is Cupcake, testing one of our gingerbread cookies. We made tons in preparation for our annual Pie Night. Which was a screaming success. We had three families over, and a collective 12 kids, who all loved decorating cookies, the pinata that held lots of chocolate gold coins, and singing Christmas songs, led by Jason Kelly.

Here we have SA with his two best friends from school, having fun at a playdate we planned.

I love to make home made soups, and to the left, SA adds the customary bay leaf to chicken vegetable soup. He always says that if you get the leaf in your bowl, its good luck.





Above, the children watching the Grinch, Frosty, and other holdiday classics in their soccer chairs.

One holiday hit, left by Elfie Cocoa (our Elf on the Shelf) was an old school Light Brite set that Santa obviously found on Ebay. The new Light Brites are so useless.

These last few photos are from the church Christmas party. Baby Mrs. sat on Santa's lap. Rosebud screamed at the sight of him. It was the best Christmas party ever, or maybe our kids were just old enough to enjoy it.
