Happy Holidays

I started a new tradition this year, Christmas Eve dinner at my house.  It was a special feeling to have a house full of family and friends.  Thank you to everyone who spent this wonderful day with us.

Rock Band for Xmas

Well, after a year of wanting we finally got it.  ROCK BAND!!  My Mom bought it for the family and we had some fun Rock Band parties.

S'mores

Jarron has been bugging me about making s'mores so we finally did.  They were very happy :)

O Christmas Tree

The boys had a lot of fun this year and helped each other hang the ornaments on the high branches.   

Tis the season

This pic should be at the bottom of the page to go in order but I am just lucky to find the time this morning to put any pics up :) So just pretend these are in order.

Jarron goes to preschool at Archer Center, a parks and rec program, twice a week.  They have wonderful festivities for the holidays and this day was meeting Santa.  There are two separate classes for the preschoolers but they have the parties for them at the same time, so some of the kids in the pics aren't in his class.  I volunteer several times a month and Mason gets to go with me and he loves it.  He joins in like he is a 4 year old and all the kids know him and treat him like a fellow student.

Mason and the reindeer.  That was his first question on our way to see Santa, "Will Rudolph be there"?

Jarron and Mason with part of his class.

Jarron with Santa, Mrs. Claus, part of his class and his teacher Miss Leah.

Mason and Jarron giving Santa their Christmas letters.  They cut and paste pics from the Sunday ads.  Jarron had no problems talking to Santa and sitting on his lap but Mason would only go as far as handing his letter over and waiting for the candy cane.
