Life Lately

Well, tomorrow (Friday) is the boys last day of school for 2021. They are pumped! Even I'm ready for a bit more relaxed schedule :)

Here is a little bit of life lately for you...

Zane is a Chiefs fan!
He loves his new shirt - we matched a few weeks ago for their game!

 
There is nothing better than a clean house with twinkle lights, a lit candle, Christmas pillows and football!

 
More twinkle lights!

 
I love working in my dining room with twinkle lights and my Navity.

 
Last night in the terrible wind storms, I lost a wreath. But look how cute they are on our house! Especially with my black shutter (which used to be maroon) and the black railing (which used to be white).


Nik and I love playing games (when we have some down time).

 
The boys stayed the night at a friends house last weekend and they came home extra tired. I worked really hard that morning to keep their big (sleep-deprived) feelings at bay. So we started with Go Fish (using Uno cards) and then I worked on mixing up some cookie dough.

 
The minute their game was finished, they joined in the fun!







We have some wonderful sugar cookies now (no icing this time - we just did sprinkles and such). I probably need to make another batch that they can decorate with icing. 
 
That's about it, I guess. Nik and I are both crazy busy at work, but we are looking forward to Christmas and time with the family!

Christmas Fun

Last weekend we did a few fun Christmas things!

First, Saturday morning, we visited Santa! 
The boys school had a pancake breakfast where you could meet Santa. 
We filled our bellies and then the boys got to visit with him for a few minutes.




 
Saturday evening, we ended the night in our pajamas at a Christmas Lights Drive-thru!

I love the first day of the month! Especially December 1st!
Last night I gave the boys their Christmas pajamas....


 
And we finished up their teacher gifts!


 
Christmas soap and earrings, cranberry-white-chocolate cookies, and a funny card that each boy colored. Here is Zane's....


Answer: Horn-aments!
 
And Jaxen's...

Answer: a cookie sheet!
 
Happy December 1st! Merry Christmas!
