OK, so December started out with a super cute baby.
Then we moved right on to Graham's birthday! The big Number 3!!!
It was a multi-day celebration. We had a party
with a few friends on Friday.
Then on Saturday morning he got to open his presents from us.
That afternoon we had a party with the
Markhams. It was a joint birthday party since Uncle Seth's birthday was on Sunday. But Graham got the one desire of his heart- "The Dragon Movie" It's a favorite! On Sunday we had a birthday party with the Whites, and that pretty much ended his birthday weekend.
The following Saturday we went out with Grandad and Aunt Cammi to cut down some Christmas trees. We did this last year, and it will probably be an annual tradition. It wasn't snowing like it was last year, but it had snowed the day before, and there was still some snow on the ground and trees.
They have these signs all over the lots, saying watch out for holes. I was the only one to fall into a hole, and bang up my knee, and fall face first, and Olivia first, into a pine tree. It was OK though, just a bruised knee, and everyone was OK.
It was cold though, and Olivia had to be pretty bundled up!
We eventually got a tree stand big enough for our tree- the trunk was too wide for the one that we had, and we got it up and decorated.
And finally, last week we took the Kids to the mall, waited in line for an hour, and got our picture taken with Santa. In the past Nate and or Graham have been terrified of Santa, this year, both of them ran up to him, and were so excited to see him. What did they want you ask? Graham asked for "Lightning" (As in Lightning McQueen- as if we don't already have enough) And Santa knew all of the characters from Cars. Nate asked for a cute puppy dog, (yes, my children are terrified of dogs) and a Batman toy.
And that pretty much brings up up to date on December.
