Christmas traditions and shenanigans

Christmas activities photo dump! Just know, we did all the things! And I even fit in a minor surgery to have a mole removed from the side of my nose so most of these pictures are complete with blue stitches and a swollen face! Live in the moment - and pictures - because Christmas season with kids doesn't take a time out!

Benton Christmas Parade - we saw Annie and Stacey!


and Ivy's best buddy Makenzie!!



One of Finn's best buds Jax also showed up!








"snow!"




Finn showing us his illustrated page in a published children's book! (it is the right side)

this clown was creepy




Our church had a family Christmas meal and you could wear anything Christmas! It was PJ day for the kids at school so they are still in pajamas...  The back drop was set up to let you get pictures; enjoy the realness of our pictures! (Josh had to work...)





brothers.


Mac and Ivy had a Christmas program at school..see if you can spot them! 





Grandma sent a little painting activity for the kids! They thoroughly enjoyed it!

the mole that was cut off

in recovery after surgery - I snapped this for the kids and texted them to prepare them

my very honest Maclyn told me that it was not pretty. Ha!

the day after my surgery was our church's candlelight service - I couldn't miss it because my babies were singing! And it is just the best Christmas service ever





My gorgeous Christmas babies

Christmas break cinnamon rolls

We found Santa! Keagan didn't want to have much to do with Santa but when I told him he HAD to, he went and sat right next to him. Haha! I didn't mean he had to sit with him by himself, or on his lap, but he was gonna get a pic with his siblings and Santa...but Keagan kept saying "take the picture" so he got one all by himself!




Ivy refused to even talk to Santa...so we left and went and looked at lights. She decided then that she was not going to be shy and asked for a second chance...



So we came back! And she told him all that she wanted...






Christmas Cookie Time!










opened a box from Hannah - wonder what she got me?! HAHA!

Christmas Eve church service pictures - you can tell my face is super swollen!
