Santa Sightings

This year Christmas has been so fun. Javin is so excited for Christmas and has been counting the days. Cael loves to hear about Santa and loves to see the lights, presents and trees. They are both so excited and we're glad to get to start our own family traditions for the kids but miss the fam in Utah!!



Robby (our apt complex manager) dressed up as Santa and walked through the apts today yelling ho ho ho and merry christmas

He then was at the office for the kids to come and see him. Javin spotted a fake right away and Cael was super excited.

We went to lights of the south this year with the Winn's and it was really cool. This is one of the castles sitting on top of the swamp. You ride through the lights on a tractor drawn hay ride. Javin of course could not contain his excitement.

Playing after the lights

Javin and Kade! Javin was so excited to go with these guys!!

Cael didn't want to look at me.

We couldn't get Cael to smile but the kid was so excited to see "sasa" and sit on his lap.

Good thing the real Santa was at lights of the South since the one at our apt was "fake"

Cute Kids

I like to cuddle with my daddy!!

Most of the time they love each other and play super cute.

Javin's homework time. Usually Cael wants to do homework too so we get out paper and crayons for him to do his homework.

Caellum helped me set the table by putting every single piece of silver ware that we own on the table. He is such a good helper

I just thought these pictures were cute and wanted to let you all see them.

Birthday Fun

Happy Birthday



I can't believe Cael is 2!! He's getting so big and is such a little boy.



He didn't quite understand Heavy Heavy hangover and of course none of us got him to wish us anything but one day he'll get it.

Javin is barely taller than the chair. He had more fun than Caellum did.



The official BATMAN cake. Caellum loves him!!


The next day playing with birthday presents.

He's 2

Today is Cael's birthday!! Poor kid had to endure the doctor with all of the shots that go along with it. They also wanted to do blood work so I had to hold him in my lap while they stuck him with a needle and drew blood. I felt so bad for him. Luckily he isn't quite as dramatic as Javin and once it was over he stopped crying and only said ow a few times. He's so tough.
Last Tuesday I went to Javin's school for a party and had so much fun with him. He's such a great kid and was all excited to see me. And then Thursday we went over to the Weiler's for Thanksgiving dinner. It was a lot of fun and such good food. Thanks guys we loved it. We then went over to some of our friends from the Star Wars game for desert and the kids loved their older boys who made them oragami and let them play with their cool toys.
On Friday, After the craziness at work, we dropped the kids off at Cari's (thanks so much) and Ryan and I went to Atlanta to the Manheim Steamroller concert!! YEAH!! Before the concert we went to dinner at the melting pot and it was delicious. It's been a long time since Ryan and I had good quality alone time and we had lots of fun. The food was delicious and the music was excellent. The only down side is that because of work I didn't get to see the kids for 2 whole days. I missed them but at least Ry got some good quality time in. I wanted to take pictures but the battery has been dead forever and i can't find the camera stuff to charge it. Hopefully we can find it and get pictures of Cael's Batman cake and opening presents.
We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and love you all
