'Tis The Season!

The month of December has flown by, and we have had so much fun celebrating the holidays! From seeing the Trains at Northpark with GJ & Popa, to looking at christmas lights with the Gregg family, we have enjoyed the Christmas season. I can't believe it's already Christmas Eve! We have some excited kiddos around here--even if they don't quite understand what's going on! :)

Here's a look at what we've been up to...

After we decorated our big tree, I thought it would be fun to make a tree for Caroline & Will! They loved it--and I also used it for my therapy sessions!

Caroline mostly supervised... :)

So proud!

The finished product! :)

We continued our tradition of looking at christmas lights with the Greggs

Sorry for the iPhone pics--my phone isn't the latest/greatest (as you can tell! Ha!)

And, it was pitch black dark when I snapped these! :)

But, we saw some spectacular lights this year!

Will has loved using the Christmas Village as the perfect place to play cars...

And Caroline has discovered her love for Popa's rocking chair! Let's all keep our fingers crossed that she doesn't fall and hurt herself--she's quite the little daredevil!

We have only had a couple of cold nights, but we have taken advantage of them by building a fire...

Will was an awesome helper with Daddy, and he was mesmerized by it!

Will has also discovered a love for playing the drums--his Uncle Ron & Uncle Steve would be proud! :)

Last Sunday, we ate at Matt's old Corner Bakery after church and had fun playing on the huge presents/ornament display!

Will made his stage debut with a performance of "Joy to The World" at his preschool's Christmas party. He did great! I was surprised there were NO tears--he jumped right on stage with no hesitation when it was his turn. We were so proud! I think his buddy, Tyler, (to Will's right) gave him a little courage! :)
