Merry and Bright

Merry Christmas to all! The Huebners had a really nice visit from Santa. The kiddos were spoiled rotten.

It was a great holiday for us and hope it was for everyone else!

Seattle Holiday Events

A day with the Bartels. We had a blast - we hit the Teddy Bear Suite at the Fairmont and the kids didn't want to leave. Sloane had some tears about leaving the bears behind. We walked in the drizzle to the Gingerbread Village at the Sheraton but the line was HORRENDOUS so we moved along to the carousel. Kiddos loved that too - J was particular about having a blue horse and L was just happy to be there. We ended our evening with greasy burgers at Johnny Rockets. It was a great day!

Holiday and Sunday best

Posing by the tree... "mom, please take my picture!"

Sleepy sister

Poor London got a little trampled at dance today - she escaped with a bloody nose and a fat lip. Because of her drama from the trauma she didn't nap... But she sure got tired!

Here Comes Santa Claus...

J way super excited to tell Santa what was on his wish list (the Ninja Turtle Shellraiser vehicle and a samurai castle). You can tell by his huge, cheesy grin that he was happy to be there.

L was another story... Though she held it together and isn't shed tears, she was super unhappy with our choice of activity. Another positive was getting her bows in her hair and not having her rip them out immediately.

Merry Christmas from our family to yours and best wishes for the New Year!

Thankful

Meant to post ON Thanksgiving... So grateful for our two little bundles of joy. Though they test our patience daily, we wouldn't trade them for anything. We are truly blessed.
