The JOY of Christmas

I am going to try to clump the whole month of December into one post.  We have had the best Christmas break and are going to be so sad for it to end tomorrow when Matt goes back to work and then the boys go back to school on Wed.  We started off Dec. with our visit with Santa.

I love this Santa's face :)

And decorated gingerbread cookies with silly Christmas tree hats

Picture Brady took of us before Matt's office party

And of course Jolly was here (Sending Matt to therapy-he hates the elf)

Cal got to dress up for school one day-he wanted LOTS of Jingle Bells

Harrison, Taylor and Cal at their class party

Cal fell in love with "oreo balls" at this party

I tried to make them and am not patient enough, so am going to have to find someone to make them for him next year

Brady at his class party-the cookie he made

Brady, Payne, John Parker and Sarah Morgan before their Christmas program

They all have Jesus in their hearts-Brady's favorite part-he is on the 2nd row

**I did get a camera lens for Christmas so I will be able to zoom in now**

His favorite people-Mason and Garrison

We went to Atlanta to see Dot Dot

Our fingernails are the same color red

And Mimi was here for Christmas

I wish I had taken a picture of Mimi with Luigi-he loved her

Christmas Morning

Cal's favorite gifts were the X-BOX  and his new bike

So excited, he was able to ride 2 miles the other day while I jogged

Brady's favorite was his spark scooter (just like the one brother got for his birthday back in Oct)

Really this kid is easy, he likes everything :)

I-pod touches (really mine and Matt's old i-phones turned into their new toys)

Skyping with cousin Kendall and aunt Kristy

We had a wonderful Christmas dinner with Matt's parents and Mimi

Granddaddy, Cal, Brady and Matt playing the game Headbands

A few things that gave me JOY this Christmas (other than getting to celebrate Jesus)

My glittery JOY sign and sequins........I LOVE SEQUINS

Here are 3 of my favorite shirts (black, new burgandy and silver)

I love December, I can wear sequins with jeans just because!

This cute J.Lo for Khol's dress

Wore it to a Christmas Party and it was really cute

And the pretty new necklace my sweet husband surprised me with

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!
