Ella she wants a puppy and a baby a live and a baby. I dont think we can manage two of those things. Maybe a pretend baby that she can take care of.
Tyler wrote a crazy list. He later rethought the list and said he really didn't want an iPad, Wii, electric scooter or nerf guns. But he did say he wanted a watch and collared shirts. He wrote he wanted Pokemon cards but "don't get me these if you don't want to!"
Darren got to dress up like an elf for a work Christmas party. Oh boy! he looks good in tight pants!
We had a great Neighborhood Christmas Breakfast. It made me happy to see Tyler on Santa's knee. And of course Abby wouldn't do it unless Ella was right there!
We also went to a friends house for a fun Christmas Party. So fun to visit, eat and play some silly games!
Our neighborhood also does a super fun tradition of no neighborhood gifts. Instead we meet and donate food and gifts to a needy shelter. The family hosting provides donuts and hot cocoa. This year it was snowy and cold but so wonderful! Santa was there. He told the kids he had to go and that his reindeer were right around the corner. Oh boy, they wanted to follow him around he corner!
And it has snowed and snowed and snowed. That is one sure way to make it feel like Christmas.

good holiday updates! love that tyler enjoyed the concert. the kitchen backsplash tiling looks great! love that your neighborhood does the service instead of gifts. thanks for the pictures of Grandma's visit. I like to hear how Abby can read the big chapter books to you and how you all do the pushups together. the Christmas wish lists are very fun :) you have good kids! it must be because you are good parents.
