DECORATING THE TREE!

Last night we got to decorate the tree that Daddy got us! The kids were so excited, I know they don't look like it above but I promise you they were, they just were not in the mood for me to take their pictures. That is why there are not that many.
One of Santa's elves got us new Christmas tree lights, Camen picked us out a new star too! Thank you little elf!
Caden Jace stringing up the tree, these lights are so bright, they are round ball shaped and we love them! When Cashy got up this morning she must have forgot the tree was up and said wow, beautiful!
Caden and Cash again
Putting up the ornaments

Guess who finally came today, Bobo, our little elf on the shelf must have been delayed! We found him in the living room in a pile of snow when the kids got home from school, that Santa, he had snow on his boots from the North Pole and made a mess in our house! Don't forget to ask the kids how they found Bobo when you see them next! I wonder what other little shenanigans he will be up to?
Here is our perfect tree, not perfect in your eyes but in mine.......the kids put the ornaments on, some on the same branch or really close together, the imperfect is perfect in the right eye.
The middle
and the bottom with a very special handmade tree skirt, made by my Grandma!
Don't you just love our star! The kids also got a video message from Santa today, they were just in awe that Santa knew so much about them and that he knew their name! Love, love loooooooovvvveeeeee this age! My personal goals in this month are to 1.) start going back to church with my babies. 2.) we have so much to be thankful for, it is just such a blessing so I want to be able to pay it forward in some way, I will know when the time is right and what the random act will be, small, big, many or few, for someone I know or someone I will never meet, I will know. 3.) teach my twin 4 year olds about being grateful, man it is hard to teach! Not just saying thank you but more.........Well wish me luck, what are your December goals, tis the Season for He is the reason.

SPRING CREEK GROWERS 2010

Every year we go here and it just gets better and better! This year we made special "nice lists" to give to Santa so that he would know what to tell the elves to make for us! They just loved the lists and carried them around the farm and the house the whole day. I did however remind them they were wish lists and you may not get everything on it........Santa had gold and silver coins to give the kids that said "I was caught being good!" Soooo cute~
Caden Jace talking about his list
Sweet boy
and Camen talked about his wish list too!
Camen told Santa, "You come on our roof and Mom won't have a fire, you'll be okay Santa, Don't forget to come to my house." Awwww I love the sweet innocence.
Caden and Camen, first Santa visit 2010!
Here is the chain of events, we arrive, Cashy is so happy, then she spots a giant guy in a red suit, she panics and holds on to Daddy's leg........
Showing Santa her list from afar. I was telling her that Santa had candy and wanted to see her baby doll on her paper, but she did not want to do it, so I had to do this......
Plop her down for ANOTHER year of crying Santa pictures! When we left I asked her if she liked Santa and she said yes. Then I said next time do you want to sit with Santa and give him a hug but she said no, boo.
In the tub a few days ago Camen said look Mom, my tummy is getting big like Santa's, haha!
I really adore this picture of Caden, he ran back just to tell him that he took a bite of his waffle this morning!
Almost 5 ft tall!
Camen was like, hey Mom there is a giant nutcracker, take my picture!
C Jude
By this point they were almost running from the camera, lol!
Cashlen liked the stinky animals
Santa gave her a picture to color
Pretty girl
Daddy walked around smelling and listening to all the trees to get just the right one
I also love this picture of Caden
and Camen
Looking at the animals again
This rooster came through the fence and made Cash scramble a little, it was hilarious
Boo Boo in the trees
Caden was peeking to see if Santa was still there
Having fun!
Being silly
Baby Girl and
Daddy Love
Up close and adorable
Hahaha, every time the guys turned on the tree machine to get off loose needles Caden would stop what he was doing and do a shake your body up and down dance, it was too funny!
Rocking horses

Saying the same thing, if they continue to say some of their favorite little boy words over and over and drive me crazy, like booty or something, and I say to stop.....they will immediately start doing a different same sound at the same time?!? Identical twins I tell ya!
