Christmas!!!

Ok, so I'm VERY far behind. And this blog will not be in order for probably the next month. With that being said, here are a few of the memories I want to get down before I post the New Year post and get pics on from the holiday!

Our church's children put on a Christmas play this year. Claire was an angel and Landon a wise man. It was darling and went off without a hitch! Both kids had lines to say, and spoke them perfectly!

Both kiddos had parties at their schools. Landon's included a little show for the parents where the kids recited a bible passage about the birth of Christ and sang some songs. Claire's party was fun too...Mommy's a room mom again and therefore helped with it.

Claire got sick the first weekend of break with a nasty virus. Landon played with his friends. We also went to see a movie, went out to dinner and got ready to host a party for Daddy's work team. Landon came down with an ear infection the day before Christmas Eve. Antibiotics seemed to heal it, and it didn't damper his Christmas spirit in the least!

Christmas Eve was spent with our good friends, the Symons'. They came over for dinner and a gift exchange. It was nice to spend some quiet, but fun time with our "extended" family. We are truly blessed to have found such wonderful people to make memories with! That night we put out our decorated cookies, with a thank you note to Santa. Claire pulled a loose tooth that morning so she put it in her tooth fairy pillow that night. A visit from two mystical people in one night!!! Christmas morning was filled with oohs and aahs and lots of toys. Also a little vomit from Landon...but that story will continue later!
