The Ring of Fire

Cooper's announcing that we are hanging out in the "ring of fire" at Mimi and Poppy's house.

Merry Christmas!!

Artsy Fartsy

We should open an art studio at our house since we have 3 budding artists. Connor is taking an art class on Saturdays and the above drawing is his first life size drawing. Those are lasers coming out of his eyes in case you were wondering.

Yes I know Cooper is painting too, and I am a brave woman.

Charlie, our Elf, has been busy making snow angels, sleeping in tissue boxes, etc. I am running out of ideas for this little guy. We've only forgotten to move him a couple of times.

Visit to See Santa

On Sunday we went to visit Santa at the Galt House. Best place to go an avoid the crazy mall crowds. Plus you get to take your own pictures for free! And to top it all off he's super nice and looks like the real deal.

They picked their favorite horse and stood in front of it. That was the only way to get their picture with Michael.

Cooper was once again very leary of the big bearded man.

See him trying to escape here??

Checking out the giant gingerbread house, made entirely with candy and gingerbread. We had convince the boys that they DID NOT want to eat those jelly beans. I shudder at the amount of germs lurking in the beans!

Our three little elves.

Checking out the life fish swimming in the bar. Very cool.

Camden Christmas Breakfast

Connor school had a Christmas breakfast with Santa last weekend and Michael took the boys while I took my parents shopping on our annual outing. Cooper was terrified of Santa. It's a first for us because the other boys didn't seem to mind him a bit at that age. He clung to Michael for dear life!

Trying to escape the jolly guy here.
