Pre-Christmas Activities

Our family enjoyed a wonderful Christmas season. Mathias was really excited about reading Christmas books, watching Christmas shows, and listening to Christmas music. We really get into the spirit around our house. It was so much fun sharing the season with our children!
Mathias enjoyed painting ornaments for our tree. He picked out special ones to give to his Nana and Pop and Grandma and Grandaddy.
 Each evening after supper we would watch a Christmas show. Jamie has a huge collection of all the shows we watched as kids. Mathias' favorites were Charlie Brown, Frosty, and Muppets.
 We attended Jamie's office Christmas party. Mathias loved getting to see where "daddy goes to talk about bees."
 Santa was even there. Again, Analy tolerated him.
 And Mathias wouldn't go near him!
 The weekend before Christmas we went to GA to see our families. Our first stop was Nana and Pop's. We all loved playing with Aunt Kiki's Wii.
 Analy enjoyed Mathias' new tricycle.
 Mathias got pretty good on the drums.
 As good as the rest of us.
 Analy practiced some walking skills with Nana.
 After a few days in Sparta, we headed to Warrenton for Christmas with the Ellis Family. Here's Mathias enjoying the new weeble treehouse.
 Analy with her new build-a-bear.
 Learning fire safety from Uncle Matthew.
 Mathias and his new tractor.
 Analy dancing to Jeremy's mad guitar skills.
Praise God for blessing us with such wonderful families!
