A little holiday fun!

This time of year is filled with joy and laughter and traditions!  One of my favortie treats during the holidays growing up was homemade chex mix.  I have my kids addicted too!
 We have been watching lots of holiday movies and enjoying warm fires!
 I took Ellie to Jami Masters holiday show and ended up sitting right beside a girl I grew up dancing with and haven't seen in 17 years!
The kids had a holiday sleepover at Mimi and Pops filled with lots of fun.
 While the twins were away we attended our Country Club Ball.  This is the only pic from the night, but let me tell you Abby and I were on the dance floor All.Night.Long.  When Ellie saw this picture she said "Mommy she looks like a Barbie"
 We continued the Holiday activities with Dinner with Santa!  Kids loved petting the sweet horse doing the carriage rides at the Club.
 We decorated Gingerbread Men, made ornaments, ate a delicious dinner and saw Santa!  We got the professional picture taken so it hasn't come in the mail yet, but I am hoping it is a good one!

 The twins don't have school on Fridays and normally we have "Family Friday", but last week Charlie invited everyone to his house to decorate cookies!  Ryan and Ellie went shopping and didn't arrive until after the group picture.  I love seeing all these sweet faces together and even though they see each other 4 days a week they were so excited to play!


 We also attended Ryan's work Christmas party. This party is very sentimental because it is a chance to see all his offices come together in one place and spend time together.  Some of their offices are 2 hours away so this is a once a year thing!  It also reminds me of where it started...first Christmas party was a Costco variety tray in the break room during lunch break.  We always try to be proud of where we are, but remember all the work it took to get here.  I am just so proud of Ryan and all he provides for us.
 Here is a group picture of the staff that was able to make it to the party. 
 All the doctors and Lisa of course...what would we do without Lisa??
 And Ryan and his partner "Dr. Mike".  Can you believe his wife had a baby two weeks before this pic?  She was rocking that hot red dress!
 And to round up the weekend fun we went to a 5th birthday party with a snow theme!



Lots more fun coming soon!
