December 2012–Major Catch-UP

 

Yikes.  I am way behind on updating my blog.  We had such a wonderful holiday season, though.  The extra week between Thanksgiving (& Caelan’s birthday) and Christmas was an added blessing and left us with many weekends to deck our halls, watch Christmas movies, share holiday cheer with friends, and I even got our Christmas cards sent out before New Years.  Today was New Years Day and we took down the tree.  Brennan and I were both very “blue”, and Caelan screamed “no” when I started to take off the lights. 

So, we’ll start off with the Microsoft Family Christmas party that was the first week of December.  This is an AMAZING holiday party – each room has a theme – this year the overall theme was board games – so there was a room with the game Clue, Candy Land, etc.  lots of food, drinks, and lots of activities for kids. 

I, of course, have a lot of fun dressing up my baby girl – she was glowing in holiday spirit for the party.

Of course, Brennan is getting a balloon sword with holster……

These pictures were taken the following morning.  Nothing says ‘holiday spirit’ like two cute kids in their Santa jammies & a balloon sword, huh?

After our morning ‘modeling’ session, we headed out to the Christmas Tree lot.  This is the same lot we’ve been going to for at least 5yrs.

Good friend, Jenny Pastore, joined us to get a tree for her house too.
