Since having children we don't get to make many pictures of ourselves. Here we are a few days before Christmas. I love this guy!!
We got a package from some special friends. The kids love opening packages, they especially loved all the candy in this one. Perfect Christmas gift. Thank you!!
Fun bean bag game from the package!!
Jason's parents (Nana and Dede) came to town before Christmas and through New Years. We had a blast together and were so very thankful to have them with us this year. Thank you guys for coming!!

The big kids take such good care of the little ones. She is reading a book to them.
Each of the kids got a stocking at the Christmas party filled with fun toys and candy. It was a high light for my kids.
We finally got candy canes to hang on the tree. Noelle loved this. I actually found a half eaten candy cane under all the presents on Christmas day. That was a fun surprise. I guess that's what happens when you have three kids in the house who are five and under. It is too much of a temptation to have candy at eye-level.
