My FAVORITE time of year with my FAVORITE boys!
I thought I could get some good photos of the boys wrapped in Christmas lights for our card this year... they had fun, but we hardly got any "card-worthy" photos. To my surprise, they were all fighting for the spot light. Prince N has mastered the infamous "cheese!" every time I whip out the camera (or the remote. Hehe.)
So we picked a relatively warm day to snap some photos by the railroad tracks. A little tripod and a lot of patience, we ended up with a lot of cute shots! The boys each have solo pics as well, looking very handsome, but it was too much to post on here!
Last weekend we had the army Christmas party, and as yearly tradition goes we get our tree immediately after at a local tree farm. Landon chose the perfect tree for our house (once it was decorated, he declared it "the best tree ever!").
Each boy helped with a few ornaments, the bigger boys excited more this year than ever to hang their "specific" ornaments. In the background we listed to Christmas music, and baked cookies in the oven. It was about as picture-perfect as it can get around here.
I had to laugh at the above picture - the boys were mesmerized with the tree cutting! Hubby hit a rock during the process, so the dull hack saw got stuck and the boys scrambled to help. I love them so!
Now we are counting down the days on our homemade advent calendar; 24 pockets filled with chocolates and legos this year. And Prince M reminds me every day that he wants Santa to bring him the Star Wars Angry Bird "piggy ship." Sigh. I sure hope Santa is listening!
