Santa and Cinnabons

Saturday morning we went to Schlotsky's to eat and see Santa. This was their second visit to Santa. We ate cinammon rolls and the kids sat on Santa's lap. There were no tears again and the kids got more excited about Christmas coming.
Later on that day, the kids helped us rake leaves in the backyard. Cameron actually raked one whole bag himself. Hudson played more than he raked and Meredith just tried to eat the leaves.

Gaylord Texan


Thursday night before Nana and Papa left we went to the Gaylord to check the lights out. The boys were so excited to see everything and of course Santa. Everything was beautiful! Santa was the kids favorite part. No tears were shed and we got the cutest picture of all 3 kids sitting with Santa!

Tree trimming


We got to decorate two trees this year. The boys and I decorated the small tree outside their room. This really got them in the spirit to decorate their big tree and get ready for Christmas. On Friday we went to pick out our first real Christmas tree in a while. We found the perfect one with the boys help. We strapped it to the roof of the van and drove it home. On Saturday we trimmed the tree with lights and put all of our ornaments on. There wasn't enough room for all of the ornaments. The boys couldn't wait for the presents that would soon come under the tree.

Nana and Papa Come to visit!

As soon as we got back from Tulsa, we had more company. Nana and Papa came in town for Papa's work. This is the best kind of company because they stay at the Embassy and the boys love going to pick Nana up and eat breakfast with her. Nana helped us get the house cleaned and run errands and of course shop. They were a big help when Dan was out of town. Meredith especially liked Papa this trip!

Thanksgiving in Tulsa

We drove up to Tulsa on Wednesday and got there really late! On Thursday we got up and spent the day with family and ate a delicious meal!! The kids had so much fun seeing Aunt Betty, Uncle Bruce, Alex, Lauren, Aunt Barb, Aunt Joby, Gmom, Gdad, Grammy and Papa Curt. On Friday we went shopping and bought a few things and ate even more food! The kids had so much fun hanging out and playing. On Saturday, Dan, the kids and me went over to G & G's new digs to see them. Their new place is so nice! The boys favorite part was the popcorn. That night we drove around to see the xmas lights. The lights up there were so neat and the boys really got excited about the Christmas season. They can't wait for Santa now!

Aunt Madeline and Uncle Justin




They came to visit us on the way to Aunt Madeline's family on Nov. 21st and stayed for a couple days. The kids had a lot of fun hanging out with them even if Uncle Justin's eye was hurt and he couldn't see them. It just meant that the boys were actually good at hide and go seek for once!
