December Magic

While we have so much fun through December with all things Christmas, we’ve also had birthdays to celebrate, neighbors to play with, date nights, and all sorts of great stuff.  Here is some more “magic” we’ve been loving. 

Pawpaw had his 61st birthday, so we took him out to celebrate! 


Rachel also celebrated a big milestone...turning 40!  A group of us girls got together at Tavola to celebrate our sweet friend.




Our sweet neighbors, the Readings moved to CO right before Christmas.  These kiddos love each other BIG and we are truly going to miss these wonderful people. 




Matt and I snuck out for a date night at Bonefish to celebrate the HOLIDAYS!




We had our first "dusting" of snow a few days before Christmas and the kids were LOVING it.  They played outside in it until it was all gone that afternoon.  This was Brooks' first time to see snow.










On the 23rd, we loaded up in the car in our pajamas after baths and brought our hot chocolate and hot apple cider and drove around to look at Christmas lights.


Reese and I went to get our nails painted for Christmas.  She was so excited!




These two were such helpers as I finished the last bit of Christmas shopping. Brooks is now OBSESSED with the "escavators" at Dillard's.  I bribed them both with riding it up and down if they could be helpers.  We rode that thing 6x. :)




We watched the Reindeer cam often to make sure that Santa's reindeer were going to be ready for Christmas Eve. 


The kids had their Christmas Program at His House on December 20.  It was just perfect.  Reese's class sang "Oh, Christmas Tree," and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas."  Brooks' class sang "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree."  At the end, all of the classes sing "Happy Birthday Jesus."  It's my favorite and I always tear up listening to all of them sing so beautifully.  We are so very blessed by such a wonderful pre-school. 







It's been a beautiful month of blessings.
