Christmas Fun

Lex had a few extra days of vacation to use up before the end of the year, so he took Monday and Tuesday off this week and we spent the days shopping & visiting Santa! We headed up to Charlotte on Monday to Bass Pro for their Winter Wonderland. They had the best Santa - very jolly and with a real white beard! I was happy to see Katelyn jump right up on his lap and tell him how she wanted orange presents and a piggy bank. She hasn't veered from those requests yet, so hopefully Santa will come through for her :) Levi of course did great too! The official pics we got I have to scan and haven't been able to do that yet - so here are a couple of shots Lex took with our camera.

They had a cool train and a craft area too. We had a great time!

We also hit up Roper Mountain Holiday Lights on Saturday night. I think Katelyn's favorite part was getting to sit on my lap while the car was moving :) The candy cane lane was a big hit too.

Levi got to enjoy the lights from behind his eye lids :)

We also roasted a few marshmallows and enjoyed some hot chocolate.

Yesterday we had our Playgroup's Christmas party. The kids decorated gingerbread houses, made hand print snowman ornaments and exchanged books. We love our little playgroup!
