Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

I am the worst Mom ever, I didn't even take a single picture of Christmas morning :( I got the boys coming down the stairs and their reaction on video camera at least. Oh well I guess, on to Birthdays now!

The Elf came!


The Elf came to our house! The boys woke up to a breakfast from the North Pole!



They were so excited when they saw it!



My sister Keesha came to visit me for a couple of days. This is the only picture I took. (Sad!)

Santa Train


Every year the VRE has a Santa Train where the kids go on a 45 min. train ride and Santa and Mrs. Clause stop and say Hi to the kids. This was our first year doing it, the boys had lots of fun.










More Santa Train

National Christmas Tree **


We went to the National Christmas tree to see Santa.



This is the best picture of the White House I could get. It's so pretty all decorated for Christmas.



This is this years National Christmas tree, about 2o feet. All the previous years have been about 50 feet. I don't know if Obama was trying to save money or what but it is a sad sad tree this year.



Ha Ha Ha!

Gingerbread Houses!


In Carmine's class they made gingerbread houses. Braxton and I went to help out.






They had so much fun!



The finished products!

Carmine's Singing performance


Carmine's first singing performance. He did such a good job!



It was so fun to see him sing all the words and know all the moves.






He is getting so big I can't believe it!

Happy Thanksgiving!



We went to Richmond for Thanksgiving. Here is Grandpa Mike cutting the yummy turkey!





All the family together.
