Christmas Eve

Hangin' out on Christmas Eve!

Merry Christmas!

Christmas was a BIG hit. We had a great time and Santa was GOOD to us!

Sweet Gavin with a bright red nose! Nicholas didn't like it quite as much.....

Later, he was feelin' better!

Sharin' cheese puffs.

Hope that everyone had as great a Christmas as us!

Santa and the train

Yesterday was the big santa visit. This picture is right before I got yelled at for trying to get a picture with Santa with my camera! Last year we went to Cool Springs... they were MUCH nicer, but whatev. Nicholas cried and I had to hold him and sit by Santa so I guess it didn't really matter!

After the trama of Santa I decided that Nicholas needed to go on his first train ride. (cash only... what a sham!) But he liked it, so it was cool.

Me waving for help on our millionth time around the track. I didn't think that I was ever gonna get out of that sweat box.

After our ride!

1 minute!

I was unloading the dishwasher this morning and had my back to Nicholas for 1 MINUTE; I turned around and THIS is what I saw!!!!

Gavin visit!

This past weekend we went to Louisville for Jackson's b-day and made it over to Ashley and Joey's house. Nicholas and Gavin had a BIG time! By the way~~~ Nicholas only tried to bite Gavin about 4 times and only knocked him down twice.... a new low!

Abby and Nicholas were worn out when we left!

Christmas cards.

Yesterday Nicholas had a photo shoot to attepmt to get a pic worthy of the yearly Christmas card... it was a struggle, but I think that we got the one that we needed so here are some of the losers....

our one chance with Trigger.....

This was first runner up....

Mornin' from Nicholas!

Nicholas was wondering if his hair was messed up.....

I say "scrunch your nose" and this is what I get! Hilarious!

Christmas tree. . .

Yesterday Bethany, Andrea, Nicholas, and I put up our Christmas tree. It went well... Nicholas was a BIG help, therefore a few of my special ornaments just didn't make the cut this year. For some reason I felt like they were in jeopardy. . .They are in a box waiting for a safer Christmas :)
