All things December

Kicking off December with our visit to see Santa and as you can see, Kinley is not having it again this year. She really considered it after Tyler told her that Santa would bring them presents, but she quickly changed her mind as soon as she saw him from a far distance, which meant I knew it would be a successful picture for me (insert my evil laugh). ;-) After just a second of torture and picture taking, she said, "I no wike Santa and I no want presents!" She later said that her DADDY would bring her presents. Uh-huh... she knows what's up!





A little fun at the Buda Christmas festival~










Decorating the tree~ Tyler picked out an Iron Man and Kinley picked out a Little Mermaid ornament for our addition this year.












Watching a movie after a long day of decorating. :-)


Tyler can count to 100! This is one of the first big achievements for kindergarteners! They test as the kids are ready and Tyler attempted a few times before with no luck, despite usually getting it at home. He was SO proud when he finally got his certificate, gumballs and his name on the hallway bulletin board. Out of about 100 kids, he was #42 to get his name on the board! :-)






Neighborhood Christmas party and gift exchange~






Kinley's Christmas dance performance~






Someone snuck mommy's mascara and was pretty excited about it!






First class party I helped organize! I'm SO thankful that I get to work from home and be so involved in Tyler's school! He had a blast at his Christmas party!

Goodie bags that Tyler and I made for his his classmates.
