Holiday Season 2015

Here are a few highlights of our 2015 Christmas season…

Baking | I had my first every 'holiday baking day' with my MIL, SIL, & Jordyn.  We had such a great time.  I hope it becomes an annual tradition.






























Breakfast with Santa at the Science Center | They catered a huge breakfast buffet and let the kids talk to Santa {Cullyn was all about it, Jordyn didn't want to get too close} before watching the Polar Express and exploring the Science Center before it was open to the public.














Breakfasts | I made a few {super easy!} festive breakfasts on Sundays…






Cocoa & S'Mores | We made lots of cocoa, but just one night of indoor s'mores over the fireplace
































Crafts | We made thumbprint Christmas lights, strung popcorn & cranberries with my MIL, and made a Gingerbread House

















Daycare Party | We lucked out with the best daycare providers when we switched this year.  The kids & us are just obsessed!





Elfie | As busy as I was coordinating Christmas books & Advent Activities, it was a huge sigh of relief when Adam offered to take control of 'Elfie' this year.  Here are a few of his shenanigans…











Letters to Santa | We sent letters to the North Pole…




















Zoo | We spent a Saturday at the zoo with my in laws {& saw the coolest sea lion show}












Plus Center Grove Orchard & Tree Farm,  Jingle in the Junction, & our 1st Annual North Pole Party.
