December - It's All About Christmas Festivities

 Well, we began December the way we always do around here in this part of Raleigh, NC with our small town Christmas Parade!


And then JINGLE JAM! I only took a picture of Rainy's hair because I was pretty proud of myself for how it turned out. She was performing on her silk as part of Jingle Jam so she needed to get that hair done up.







The rest of the month was full of friends in and out of our home for game nights, movie nights, sleepovers and eating up everything in our pantry. These are my favorite moments.


Josh has wanted a nativity scene in our front yard for YEARS. So this year I gave him one as an early Christmas present. You should have seen him getting the yard all decorated. He was actually frolicking around. I'm pretty sure one of the kids has a video;)


I caught a rare sighting of Cai...not moving, talking, joking around...but sleeping! He fell asleep on the way to my parents house after a long week.



Here is Cai's creativity at its best. He made a Christmas countdown for Jude. Every day when Cai walks in from school he and Jude collectively shout out what day Jude gets to open to get his daily prize. It's super cute.


We are closing out the year with some very important life lessons. Josh taught Zeke how to change his own oil!
