Christmas Eve

Here we are, all ready to start the Christmas festivities! There's nothing better then that feeling on Christmas knowing that EVERYTHING is DONE and you just get to enjoy the holiday! I like to get dressed up a little for Christmas Eve, and then stay comfy cozy all day on Christmas. 

So excited!!!

Poor little Bentley was so sick. :( Bad timing! A couple of days prior he had had a temp of 105! That was so scary. He was carrying around all three of those bears from the Festival of Nativites for days and days.

On Christmas Eve we drove around for a little while listening to Christmas music then went to Grandma and Grandpa May's. We had a yummy ham dinner. Alicia & Craig came with their new baby and Craig's boys. We had so much fun watching everyone's Christmas videos. The kids did the live Nativity and then we opened presents. The boys looked so comfy and cute in their new PJ's from Grandma. Bentley was a SAD sad boy for most of the night. It made for a memorable Christmas Eve that's for sure. Aside from that it was a wonderful night!

2013 Christmas Card

Here is our Christmas card this year:

Bridgeport Village

 My friend Kendall recommended that we go to Bridgeport Village to visit so we did... and it was so much fun! It was so cute, and the shopping is amazing! Of course we had our kids so the shopping was limited... but we will be going back!! They had a little crepe shop so we enjoyed that as well. 

 Bentley has had some serious stranger anxiety! 

He was NOT loving sitting on Santa's lap!

They have a little train that goes around the shopping center. They give the kids bubbles to blow while they are riding it. Wesley was on Cloud nine!!

Christmas Tree Time

We went to Thornton's with the Baldwin family to cut down our Christmas Tree. It was fun to go with cousins! 

We borrowed Grandpa May's trailer to haul the trees.

 Happy Boys!!

 We found our perfect tree! 

We finished a fun trip to Thornton's with some Apple Pie bites! These were AH-MAZING!

Hillary's Cutie Pie Shower

 Kendall, Debbie and I hosted a baby shower for our good friend Hillary Gillespie. Since it was November we thought it would be fun to do a baking/pie theme. We pretty much just grabbed tons of stuff from our kitchens and used it to decorate. 

 Debbie- having so much shaving chocolate!

 We printed a bunch of these funny vintage pictures off the Internet.

 I love these friends of mine!!!!

 Hillary with her plate full of pie! Her little girl was born in January and she is adorable! So happy for her!

Family Pictures

 Mackenzie did our photos again this year.... and again she did a great job! We went to Lewisville park in Battle Ground. We got the pics done early this year and it felt GOOD!

Halloween

We had so much fun with our Halloween costumes this year. Wesley wanted to be Batman, and Baylor wanted to be a clown, so we kinda talked him into being Joker. They all loved their costumes. I have never seen them happier! Logan and I couldn't resist but be villains as well... The Riddler and Catwomen. We were lucky to have perfect weather for our Trunk-or-treat and again on Halloween.

I 'pinned' this Batmobile on Pinterest a very long time ago. This was my perfect opportunity to make this! I found a cozy coupe on Craigs list. My friend Cami cuts vinyl so she made the Batman symbols for me. 

We turned our car into 'The Batcave' and had Batman music playing. Our boys were in heaven!

Barn Party

 Every year Grandma and Grandpa May do a Pumpkin carving party in their barn. We had Chili and rolls and a yummy chocolate dessert. Logan did most of the carving but I did do a little 

jack-o-lantern for Bentley. We love this tradition! :)

Go Gators!

Baylor had his last Soccer game on Saturday. He had a good season. His last game.... well, it wasn't his best. But he's cute and we love him!

 Baylor was 'too cold' for most of the game and kept trying to do this... even on the field while he was playing! 

 Mackenzie moved home! Her and my Mom came to watch the last game.

 After his game we went to Leonardo's Pizza for a Pizza party. He was SO excited to get his trophy!!!
