December 2013 & Updates!

Needless to say we had a VERY busy December!  I am so behind on the whole month so here is the longest post ever to throw it all in there for ya!

We started out with a weekend with Ryle, the kids had the best time on a super rainy weekend!  We turned out living room into a master fort and the boys read and played in there for hours.

Vincent turned 5!  Beck once again amazed us all with his party including a Jedi Training Academy.  Tay was SO scared of Darth Vader he was almost frozen, until he got a sticker.  Great party Beck!

We had lots of play dates with our friends and even got to feed the ducks, Tay wants to do it every time we pass a park now!


Miss Noelle graduated to her big girl car seat and she was SO excited!  

I went to Tay's class to see his Christmas in the classroom celebration.  They sang songs, did crafts, had a yummy lunch and then playground craziness!  Tay practiced his songs for weeks and he wouldn't sing ONE word for his performance!  He just kept smiling thinking everyone was taking his picture.  It was so cute and he loved showing me all the fun things he gets to do everyday.  

On the 22nd we celebrated Noelle's 1st!  We had muffins for the muffin and then headed to brunch with the whole family at Lazy Dog.  We all had a great time, especially those kiddos who got to eat all that ice cream.  Party pics to come!

We FINALLY finished her room too.  Greg and Banana came over and being the man of many talents Greg is he used to decal for a living so he busted that thing out in no time!  Gus finished the flowers with the kids and tada, a huge pink rug topped it all off!

Christmas Eve we went to Ray and Christi's for a WONDERFUL meal and presents.  

And Christmas day we hung around the house!  We donned our matching jammies (sorry no good pics there) and enjoyed a warm day with mom and dad.  The kids loved opening all their gifts and lunch.  During naps we watched a movie and then spent the rest of the evening cleaning up and enjoying being together.  It was a quiet but relaxing holiday.  

Add in some adult parties, light sight seeing, more birthdays and anniversaries, dress up days, Santa and PHEW just like that it was over.  
Lastly some randoms that just show how nutso my kids are!
