Caleb's Christmas Party

We had a lot of fun at Caleb's school party.  The menu consisted of pigs in a blanket (Caleb thought this was hilarious!), cookies, fruit, cheese cubes and chex mix.  The children were incredibly quiet while they ate.  I think they enjoyed the food a lot! :)  Two other mothers were at the party also.  They both told me that their daughters talk about Caleb all the time.  Apparently Caleb is a little ladies man.  I hope this doesn't get us in trouble in the years to come!!

Dinner with Moira

We had a fun night at Zesto with Moira and Uncle James.  Callie Grace and Caleb ADORE Moira.  Caleb says that Moira is his favorite girl.

I think Moira loves them a little bit too!

Monday night

Well, we were supposed to go to the library last night to see a little play.  That didn't happen.  It was so cold and I was so tired!  Callie Grace was on the crabby side and spoke to me in an ugly way so that was the determining factor on us staying at home.  After some time of reflection for Callie Grace, our night was just fine.  I fixed (okay we warmed up) dinner.  Then we play some before bath time.  Bedtime came early last night.  I sure was thankful for that!

Weekend

We had a fun weekend with the babies.  Friday night, we went to the church close to our home to see their live nativity.  It was beautiful!

Callie Grace hugged Mary right after I took this picture.
Caleb liked the donkey.

They both liked llama llama red pajama.


Miss Cindy made Christmas pajamas for them.  So, after we went and looked at Christmas lights I decided to take a few pictures of them.  I am no expert photographer but I was pleased with how they turned out.


LOVE Caleb's facial expression!

On Saturday, we went to Winnsboro to ride the train with Santa.  It was cold as there was no heat on the train but the kids had fun!

Caleb and Bejamin wanted nothing to do with the picture.

Caleb and Santa - Caleb told him that he wanted Criss Cross Crash for Christmas!

Callie Grace telling Santa that she wants a unicorn pillow pet for Christmas.

Callie Grace asked him what his favorite cookie was.  Santa reported that he likes macadamia nut cookies and chocolate chip cookies.

On Sunday, we went to church.  Sunday night, Callie Grace's music group sang 1 song in the adult choir Christmas performance.  They did a great job!

We have a busy week planned but it sure is fun making these memories with our sweet babies!

Christmas musical at school

Callie Grace and Caleb had their Christmas performance last night.  They both did very well!  Caleb dressed in all black and CG dressed in all white.  Caleb was a star.  They had to yellow stars to go over his outfit.  Callie Grace was a sheep.  They had little ears for them to wear.  My pictures aren't the greatest but we do have a video of their performance. 

After they sang, we went to Zesto's for dinner with Mimi and Papa and Lori and Gerald.  We all had a nice time.

Do you see my sweet star?

Trimming the tree

We decorated our tree last night finally!  Callie Grace and Caleb decorated their tree also.  We had so much fun!

Busy Weekend

We had a fun Christmas filled weekend.  We got our tree on Saturday.  Callie Grace had Christmas musical practice on Saturday also.  She had 2 performances on Sunday and we went to the parade Sunday night.  Caleb has developed a yucky cough so he wasn't able to go to the parade.  It was so cold that Callie Grace wanted to leave BEFORE we saw Santa.  I was shocked!  As we were walking towards the parade, there was a man in his 30's or 40's walking beside us.  He looked at CG and said I can't wait to see Sata Claus!  Callie Grace just laughed and laughed and said, "well, you will have to wait until the end of the parade".

Love him
