Time with the cousins

The boys got to spend some time with their cousins over the holidays. It was lots of fun and they enjoyed every minute of it. 

The kids all traced their hands on an apron that read "We love Grandma's cookies" to give to her for Christmas.   Here they are with her enjoying her cookies..

The boys watching a little "Prep & Landing" with Lolo, Katie and Sabrina:

Christmas Day 2012

We had a fabulous Christmas this year.  The boys were so excited and I think that just amplifies the fun of the holiday season.  We wrote letter to Santa and of course, they got everything on their lists...

Here are a few pictures from our Christmases...

My boys all playing on the computers... yes, Charlie is too!

Back to blogging...

Sorry it's been so long since I've updated the blog, but I maxed out my google account and could no longer add pictures.  So, here I am with a new account in order to be able to post again with pictures and videos...

Here are just a few pictures from our life since I last posted, with the exception of Christmas...

The boys pouting...

A fun morning of painting:

Charlie needed a bath after all that painting:

My boys!

Christmas with Nana, Papa and Aunt Kiki

The boys got to spend Christmas with Nana, Papa and Aunt Kiki today.  It was a great day and something they have been looking forward to since we started with the advent calendar.  They were obviously very spoiled and got lots of cool gifts including lots of fun games...

Here are a few pictures of our day.  I didn't take many since we were all a little too busy having fun with the boys...

 In our new Christmas jammies...

Getting in touch with our inner artists..

The boys and I decided to do a little painting this morning.  I pulled out the finger paints for Charlie.  Zachary and Nicolas wanted to uses brushes.  It was a huge hit and it was so much fun!  Charlie desperately needed a bath when we were done and I'm not sure which he had more fun doing...

Tree Decorating...

We went out to Quinn Farm again this year to pick out our Christmas tree.  We decided not to go out into the field to pick it since it was quite cold and the boys were not overly keen.  We had quite a few trees to pick from and settled on one that ended up being much bigger than we thought.  It is quite beautiful and was so fun to decorate...

Getting in the hoiday spirit...

Just a few fun pictures I took of the boys in hopes of getting them out in a Christmas card....
