I feel like Christmas came so quickly this year! It was fun celebrating Christmas in our new house and being able to do more with family. Carson asked about 10 days in a row when we were going to make Christmas cookies, so one morning I surprised him by having dough made and invited Whitney over to help us.
Christmas date with the Kempfs at Gervasi. We had such a fun evening!
Note the carolers in the background - so festive :)
Trying to take a selfie - not working out out so well :)
Christmas at Grandmas - seems like every year there are more and more kids. Its so fun to watch them all interact! Seems like it wasn't that long ago that it was my generation sitting around grandma's feet waiting for presents.
Carson has really been into dressing up lately and got this police man outfit. He wore it for like 3 days straight!
Tyler and Kristin got engaged!! :) :) So excited for her to officially be part of the family!
The UPS man probably thinks I'm crazy. I did a lot of my Christmas shopping online this year and the UPS truck was a normal sight in our driveway! I sent this text to Ben because I knew he would think I was ridiculous.
Eating breakfast at great grandmas house. Fried eggs and time with grandpa - Hudson's in heaven!
And monster cookies of course!
So thankful that my boys can know my grandma and look forward to going to her house. She has been such a huge part of my life and I cherish these moments so much. Every time we drive by her house, Carson points out who lives there and then they ask to stop. Well, Carson asks to stop and then Hudson just starts yelling because he knows there are cookies in there ;)
First haircut - instantly looked like a little boy and not a baby anymore!
Early morning haircut followed by a donut date. Life is good!
We put the boys in their jammies and headed to Starbucks for warm drinks then drove around and looked at Christmas lights. I saw this idea on someone's Instagram and thought it sounded so fun! Carson thought it was pretty cool to have his own mini Starbucks cup. Too bad neither boy liked their drinks!
We had our own little family Christmas a few days before Christmas before things got busy with family things and traveling. Carson was using all of his gifts at once - headphones, superhero costume, handcuffs and whistle, and walkie talkies. I think he liked them!
Building gingerbread houses with grandma
Love this time of year!
Those cookies! Mmmm!! And Gervasi was a fun night with you two! So many fun memories to be made at Christmas!
