Gingerbread houses!

We love, love gingerbread house day!  The boys get to sample and make something fun, and I get two new pieces of Christmas decoration-made with love by the boys!Singing while decorating!

Disney!!!

We left this morning for Disney with the boys-it was so much fun!  We went got to the Contemporary Wednesday night in time for dinner.  Thursday we spent the day in Magic Kingdom, came back for a break, and then went back to the park for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas party.  LOVED that!  Friday we were in Epcot and Saturday we were in Hollywood Studios.  There are some things we’ll change for the next time we go, but we had the best time with the boys!Meeting Mickey in the Town Theatre was the first thing we did.  Sam was STARSTUCK!!  Mark had to go remind him to ask for Mickey’s autograph.  That was the first of many times that Mark and I caught eyes and realized how magical this was for the boys!While we were away, Margaret stayed with Aunt Wanda and Anna (and the boys, too, of course!) and had the best time!  We LOVED all the pictures we got and missed her so much!A Character breakfast,Epcot,even some hotel water slide time!After meeting Buzz and Woody, “Mom!!  I was in Andy’s room!!  I was on Andy’s bed!!!”  Seeing those guys was the best!Until next time, Disney!

Sprucing up the tree!

Spiderman!  First ornament on the tree!I just love the look on his face!Second ornament!The boys were such helpers putting the ornaments on the tree, but yep, I rearranged! I really, really love that they want to help, and I hope they always do, but I think our tree would’ve fallen forward if I left them all clumped in the front. And they didn’t even mind the rearranging!This year it was Sam’s turn to put the angel on top of the tree.  Didn’t actually fit, but Mark fixed it!Oh, I love our tree!!

Finding our tree!

Love, love this part, and so do the kids!We found it!  And it’s one of the prettiest ones we’ve ever had!
