Logan and Evan snuck into my bed at bedtime. They thought they were pretty sneaky, but I knew the whole time. I loved listening to their little giggles as they tried to be quiet. Sooo cute. Love when they do brother things together!!
And Brayden sleeping with his bum in the air, I love it!

These boys are having a blast pretending to drive mommy's car. I don't think we'll be going inside for a good 15 minutes...
I got to go to the kids Christmas parties, here's the pictures from Kaitlyn's
We went to Downtown Frisco for a Christmas light show. It was so beautiful and helped get this grinch in the Christmas mood!

Evan threw diapers off the upstairs landing. A while later we smelled fire. He got two in the light fixture, one was on fire...Dad was NOT amused.
We are so blessed we were home to smell the smoke! This light is not one we usually turn on unless we are leaving! So glad no one was hurt and we found it quickly!
I got Kaitlyn's invites made!

Merry Christmas Eve! This year we get to go to the Dalton's!!
I went to a supper fun girls night and made this for Grandma D. She loved it!
We had a beautiful program with all the Dalton cousins. Part of it we watched the new bible stories online about the Christmas story. It was very well done. Here are some of the cousins watching it on Grandma's bed :)
As part of the program everyone presented something. Ryan played his guitar while Collin played the clarinet and Cameron played the drums. They did such a great job!
Kaitlyn and Emily did a dance with Aunt Katrina. They had maybe 10 minutes to put this together because Aunt Trina lives in Austin. She will kill me for posting this, but I thought it was adorable!
Mindy and I sang a song with the kids, but I didn't get a video of it. It was a beautiful program and a great night!!
Then we went home (to our own house!!) & put the kids to bed. After 9 years of marriage, tonight was our first night getting ready for Christmas in our own home. We've always been at our parents homes. It was soo much fun!! I can't wait to see how it goes in the morning!!! So excited to see the kids faces!!!

And then after all the presents were open they got to see what Mom and Dad got them :)
Then in the afternoon we went to the Wilson's for Christmas with them! Here's what I made for my mom :)
Such a wonderful wonderful Christmas!!

Jess and Tiara came over and we took the kids to the church parking lot to try out their new car!!
Ryan's Mom and Dad got him a HUGE surprise! For Christmas and his birthday they got him a drum set. He is in heaven! He hasn't had one since before we met. I'm not sure what happened to the video of him opening his present, but here's one of him playing.

I took the kids to the dollar theatre by myself! It went pretty well. The oldest 4 were great! Brayden and I spent a lot of time in the halls. Haha. The kids enjoyed it and I am pretty proud of myself.

So I got this milk jug water bottle thing at an after Christmas sale, and it just makes me really happy. Haha. It's the small things :)
