Pre-Christmas Festivities Cont....

We went to Mark and Katie's for a little get together with Marks family and our family last weekend. It was so much fun, Katie cooked lots of yummy food and even had a very nice game of dirty santa! Thanks for such a fun time, the boys always love seeing their Uncle Mark and Aunt Kate!

Drew trying to figure out how to play the dirty santa game. Actually, I think he was trying to figure out if he was going to get another present:)

Granna helping Alex with his present!

Katie doing such a good job explaining the game:)

We got Drew's PJ's on for the ride home, and found him a little while later in one of Katie's showers:) I think it was fun to jump and slide in there with his socks on!

Some Pre-Christmas Festivities!

A couple of weeks ago, we took the boys to Kingston for a candy cane hunt. The candy cane hunt was really just for Drew, but Alex definitely had fun cheering on his big brother:) The hunt and games were supposed to be outside, but since it was a rainy day they ended up moving all the festivities indoors, it turned out to be really fun anyway. We had a great time, and there was even a surprise visit from Santa!

Drew wouldn't go see Santa without Grandad:)

He warmed up a little later, but wouldn't look at the camera...surprise.

Now Alex on the other hand thought Santa was the greatest thing, well mostly Santa's beard:)

They also had games for the kids to play. Drew was playing the snowball toss:)

Drew really got into finding the candy canes! He kept going around saying "momma, look at all these candy canes!" I think when it was all over, he had about 30 candy canes:)

Time for Christmas cards!!

Wow, I thought it was hard to get a good picture with one child, it is definitely harder with two! I think at some point we talked about just sending out a card with the dogs on it because they are the only ones that would cooperate:) It has been pretty funny looking through some of our attempts though! Anyway, I think we managed to get one worthy of a Christmas card in there somewhere:) I'm really excited this year because we have decided to get our cards from Shutterfly.
