My favorite Christmas memory, as I say every year, christmas eve pj's! 

I forgot to snap a picture of caleb, but he got some too.  And he rocked buying me some again this year 

Christmas 1

I think we had one of our best Christmas seasons yet.  We have had so much fun in the last couple weeks!

First, our visit North to Tyler and Katie's.  The first with them as a married couple :)

We had christmas morning with them the morning after we got there.  They opened way too fast for me to get any decent pictures, but I'm pretty sure their gifts even topped ours.

Making cookies with aunt katie

Then men working on a pie

That night we had an amazing Christmas dinner!  I needed to get a picture at the other end of the table.  It was full.

The next day we built gingerbread houses 

And made a trip to the arcade.  We all won soo many tickets

And then we went to hibachi, which was a first for for me and caleb.  We will defintely be going back.  It was a huge hit with the kids.

Chestnuts night! My favorite.

The last day we were there katie planned a big minute to win it tournament.  I didnt even get pictures of most of the games because I was too busy playing or laughing.  It was so much fun.

 And right before our drive home Tyler filled us with yet another amazing meal.  We were so spoiled and soo full when we got home.

I cannot wait to do it all again next year.  We always have the best times with them.

December

Pre christmas December post.  Super short, but tomorrow we head north to spend the holidays with my family and I cannot wait!  I'll hopefully have a lot of pictures between that and christmas so our mini update until then.

We pick out a new ornament for our tree every year.  It's a little tradition we started before we even had kids and we've stuck to it faithfully. This little guy was way too cute to pass up this year.

Bass pro is always a good time, but especially around Christmas 

Caleb came home late one day after working with the fast team and brought the kids starbucks and snowmen treats.  They loved it!

Casen has been asking for awhile now to wear his jersey to school, so when the patriots played on a Monday night the timing finally worked out.  I snapped this picture and could not believe how grown up he looked.

Speaking of the Patriots we have been throughly enjoying the games with friends...and wings this year.

And on December 14 Caleb and I celebrated being together for 10 years! We started a couple of years ago opening our stockings to each other on that date.  This year caleb put in mine, among lots of other perfect things, this amazing bracelet.  I think it's one of the few times I've cried over a gift.  It's blue line for my hottie of a police officer and then on the inside is his initials and code number.  He is so thoughtful and I love it.

Now we are off to road trip! :)
