Christmas Lights/Donuts

Checked out some Christmas lights down in Murrieta a couple nights ago. The kids enjoyed walking the streets, and finding all their Christmas favorites: Santa, Snowman, candy canes, Baby Jesus. Stop for donuts on the way home. A perfect family night!

Tyler's 2nd Annual Christmas Party

Tyler's 2nd annual kids Christmas party with a snow fun theme is in the books. We had snow ball fight room, sleigh rides, snowman contest, and don't let the snowflake fall game. Best part of all is lots of smiles and laughs from all the kids!

Knotts Merry Farm 2016

We are very excited to have our Knotts passes back for this next year. We got to go once in 2016 which was a very successful trip. Grammy will be joining us a lot next year with her 1st pass to Knotts! This 1st trip back was filled with lots of rides some old and some new. One new being Tyler's first roller coaster "Sidewinder" with Daddy. He was very excited all the way through the line, got a little scared on ride but no tears, and says, "he wants to go again!" We enjoyed a couple Christmas shows and snow falling. One cool part of the day was getting to write letters to Santa and mailing it! We can't wait for next year!

Scooter went bow crazy!

Yum...Orange Juice!

We started a new family tradition! We got our 1st fresh family tree from Home Depot! Kids loved picking it out! November 29.

Sleepover

Elfa Emma and Ella's elf came to visit on Saturday!

The "shoe-shoe" train

Scooter on Friday made a "Shoe - Shoe" train and it was also the first time Kaitlyn touched the elf. Rules are not suppose to touch the elf or he will lose their magic. So quick Mommy thinking I said, "Santa told me that if we put Scooter in a ziploc, say a Christmas wish, and shake bag 3 times magic is back." Worked like a charm!
