Madeline's Christmas Program

Madeline's school had a Christmas program that was very cute.  

Can you spot Madeline?

She is so cute. 

Funny story.  

 Kendall dropped us off at the door while he parked.  We left Max with Kendall so we could hurry in.  Well Kendall parked the car and walked into the auditorium and then realized that he forgot Max.  He went back and Max was just happy as can be waiting for his forgetful Dad.  

Max was really glad the program was over.  

Madeline gets....

Glasses!

That's right folks... I failed to give Madeline my one good quality that being good eyes.  

She failed her school eye test and was so excited to get glasses.  

She loved these glasses but they were too big. 

So we ended up with these glasses.  

She looks super cute.

But she is no longer excited to be wearing glasses. 

Family Christmas Party!

Last Saturday all of the family that lived within 60 miles all got together for our Christmas party.  We all met at our house and had some scrumptious food and then we all went to the bowling alley which my parents rented for the evening.

Max started it with a jar of cookies. 

Our Canadian.

A little elf decided to join us.  Max isn't sure about him.

Here we are at the bowling alley.  Everybody had so much fun!

And to end....

Max is maintaining that he is still the baby.

Thanksgiving

This year we was my family's turn for Thanksgiving.  We hosted the event and everybody brought things.  It was so nice and easy.  

Madeline and Max enjoyed watching Home Alone while Kendall and I prepared for the feast.

Here it goes..... hopefully we don't start a fire!

One hour later...

What a pretty turkey.

Grandma, Sarah, Anna, and Madeline.

Scott, Aaron, and Grandpa.

Uncle Derek showed Max how to rip his shirt off.   Max wouldn't keep it on the rest of the day.  Uncle Derek is in BIG trouble.  

Baby Logan loved Great Grandma!   

At the end of the night Shannon and Joey's family stopped by to play and watch a movie.   

It was so fun.
