Disney World was the perfect way to kick off the holiday season, but we still managed to squeeze in some more fun too! Here is some of what we've been up to!
Every year after Thanksgiving we give the kids new Christmas pajamas, a new Christmas book, and an ornament that represents their year in some way. Then we decorate the tree together!
Reid got a basketball ornament.
Georgia Kate got a unicorn ornament.
Rhett got a horse ornament.
We had our small group Christmas party at Chris and Holly's house. We've added three couples to our group this year!
We shopped with our small group friends for some students at Mrs. Sheryl's school! The kids also enjoyed packing their Operation Christmas Child boxes and taking breakfast tacos to the police station, but I don't have pictures of those activities. :)
Georgia Kate had her Christmas ballet recital! Her class danced to "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year". The whole show definitely put us in the Christmas spirit! Mumsie, Popsie, Grandma, Alli, Perry, Thomas, and Rebecca joined us to watch!
We put on our Christmas jammies, picked up hot chocolate, and piled in the back of the truck one night to look at Christmas lights!
We had our annual Brookwood lunch with the Myers girls!
We went to the Second Baptist puppet show "Hollyberry Lane" and checked out the awesome train display!
Chris and I went on a Christmas date to Taste of Texas and then to see one of my favorite singers Christy Nockels and her family in their Night of Hope tour. I loved it!
Rhett and Perry had their very first preschool program! It was precious.
Georgia Kate had her kindergarten Christmas program! She did a wonderful job!
Reid's school does a Jingle Bell Walk around the neighborhood on the Friday morning before Christmas break! We had fun watching him.
Rhett and Georgia Kate had Christmas parties.
This is her friend Davin. He is apparently hilarious because we hear stories almost daily! :)
Georgia and I went to the Teddy Bear Tea at the St. Regis again this year with Mumsie, Alli, Perry, and the Comeaux clan! It is pretty much the cutest thing ever. Tea party food and drinks, a magic show, a puppet show, face painting, coloring an ornament, and decorating cookies.
We saw her friend Evie there!
We made our birthday cake for Jesus on Dec. 23rd! Gotta spread out all the sugar... :)
December sure was FUN!
Makes me tired just thinking about it, but Christmas-time really is the most fun with kids (... and the busiest, ha)!
