Festival of Lights 2011

We headed to the Festival of Lights on a very warm evening! I was too hot in a coat pulling around the wagon. It was such a great night for seeing the lights especially with our friends Avery, Colby and Zach. We seen Santa and I couldn’t believe the girls actually sat in his lap so I of course had to buy the picture!

Family Christmas party at the Skating Rink

On December 11th we headed to Jackson and spent the night with Grammy and Grampy. The next day we headed to an Annual Family/Friends Christmas Party at the the Skating Rink that I grew up in. As many of you know my Grandmother and Grandfather owned the skating rink in Jackson which is now operated by my Uncle Dale. I spent many days and nights during my childhood there and its always so much fun to go back. This year my babies got to skate for the first time which was really awesome! They did so well and especially Carter who I thought would have the hardest time did the best!

Lila showing some sisterly love!

Love these smiles

Carter’s shirt says “I'm on the nice list (trust me)” I know this is what he is thinking always!

Gearing up for some fun. They ran up and down the floor at least a hundred times!

Carter didn’t want any help at all!

Lila and mommy had a blast skating together

Madelyn making more friends!

We can’t wait for next year’s party but maybe we will have to make another skating trip very soon!

Meeting Santa at the TSM Lunch

On December 4, we attending our TSM Multiples Group Santa Luncheon where we met Santa for the first time this year!

Getting all dressed up to go!

Eating some yummy food

For some reason Carter felt the need to just fall on the floor and lay there…I am really not sure why he choose to do this for the first time in public!
