Random Wrap-up Before Christmas

Vivi had her Christmas program at school last week. It must has worn her out because she cuddled up with her napmat and books in our ball pit for the afternoon!

My good friend Jen came over and we made 18 boxes of candy cane cupcakes.

That is approx. 75 cupcakes! She took some to coworkers, neighbors, and friends.

I gave my share to teachers, and the cross walk guard at Isaac's school.

I shopped for and hosted Isaac's kindergarten class party.

It turned out really pretty! We played Bingo and I read a Christmas book. Two boys said it was the best party they had ever been too! I guess for kindergarten, that may not be as a big of a compliment...but it was nice to hear!

We have been enjoying our Chick Fil A's 12 Days of Christmas giveaway.

Some of our FREE food has included: milkshakes, chicken bisquits, waffle fries, kids meals, Chicken Sandwiches for all of us...and a night with Santa Cow. Vivi had a guy make this balloon princess for her!

And yesterday, Billy's Aunt Linda sent 18 caramel apples addressed to the kids!

They were BIG fans!

Slicing them makes them so much easier to bite into.

And Dad got his first present of the season.

A grill, grill tools, and a cover from his parents!

LOVE this gift. Can't wait until we can grill up some kabobs!
