Merry Christmas!

The kids opened their Christmas pajamas on Christmas Eve. They loved their reindeer pajamas that even had tails! Owen loves his so much that we have to tell him NOT to wear them in the summer!!

I love candle light services!

Tilly and Whiskers got stockings this year!

The cats got this treat ball and Whiskers is food-motivated enough to figure it out! 

He wouldn't dare shoot his dad....right??

We played a few holiday challenge games that we'd seen online. They were fun!

The kids still enjoy making candy trains!

We headed up to PA for a few days to see family. The kids enjoyed the gym at the hotel a few times! 

Owen is such a gym rookie that he didn't notice the plastic wrapping around the water cup.

These are not recommended footwear for the treadmill!

Owen has even done the elliptical when we got home from the trip! Tilly was happy to encourage him on from her favorite place on the glider!

He still loves Legos! It doesn't take long once he tears open that first box!

Holiday fun!

We enjoyed a few holiday activities in December to get us in the holiday spirit. The kids helped with decorating the tree. It gets easier and easier as they get taller and taller!

We got these bobblehead dolls at a minor league baseball game and each of us got one. The kids enthusiastically named them (L-R): Marcelo #1, Marcelo Dos, Marcelo #C, and Marcelo Micah

We went downtown to a local hotel that has decorated trees from different organizations. I'm always impressed with the creativity!

It had been a few years since we'd gone to this drive-thru Christmas light display!

Willow always enjoys helping decorate cookies with me!

Owen helped keep track of our Christmas countdown this year!

I always love the candlelight service!
