We made so many great memories with lots of friends and with our own little family this weekend! Love Christmas!
Let's catch up, shall we...
December Daily 12
On Friday, Elfy showed up pretending to be Olaf in Ellie's room :).
We began the name like every Friday...nannying, gymnastics, and school pick up.
Then we went to our friend's house for "gingerbread" {graham cracker} house decorating! The kiddos love being able to use all the different kinds of candies...and maybe eating a few along the way ;). I have noticed the kiddos are really improving their decorating skills!
Ellie loved the taste testing part!
Avery's is looking good!
And this boy...caught him red-handed...yep sticking candy in his pocket! Crazy candy-loving boy! He did make sure he used up his whole tray of candy on his house.
Our finish products! This year the moms got to decorate one too! Mine is the front right one...that was fun!
Here are the gingerbread house decorating experts!

Elfy looks like he's having a playdate with some buddies!
Then it was Ryan & I's date day! Yes, I seriously look forward to this day all year :)! Our church gives us a day of free childcare for volunteering in the nursery and Wednesday nights. It is the best gift ever! So while the kiddos got to play with their friends from 8:30-3:00 Ryan & I got to do some shopping, go to the movies, & lunch out...all kid free and during actual daylight hours! Thank you!
Our day wasn't over yet...we also had a super fun night with some great friends! We are so blessed! I love all the kiddos in their pjs!
Before the night was over, there was some musical entertainment even!

Elfy was caught sneaking some candy...I wonder who he learned that from???
Our morning started with church, then we headed over to Bass Pro to do some of their activities set up in their Winter Wonderland {we had no desire to see Santa since we had already seen the big guy and the wait was over 3 hours long!}...
The kiddos had fun...
I think this seriously has to be the slooooowest moving carousel ever ;).
We always have to sit on a four wheeler at Bass Pro :).
A 60 degree day in December meant some playtime outside!
Then we did some family decorating with our gingerbread house kits. Evan really wanted to eat his!
Maybe some day we will try this from scratch....
Great weekend! Now for an even busier week ahead!
