Can you believe Christmas is over....












I can't. I have been trying to put away all of the Christmas decorations and Jake keeps putting the Santas back out saying SEEEEEEEEENTA. What a fun Christmas we have had!! We started off by going to the boys Christmas program at school on Thursday night. Yes our little Jake, not 2 yet was a part of the program. His class sang 3 songs before the play started. He started out with Jingle Bells and he shook the bells. The next song was about Mary and baby Jesus, he stood there and picked his nose the entire song. The last song was jump and hop, which is really funny to watch because he tries to jump so hard. Then came our big guy Luke. The pre-k class gets all the big parts. Luke was a shepherd. He sung his heart out. I cannot believe he is in Pre-K and had tears in my eyes thinking next year he will be in kindergarten.

We have had 3 Christmas' since then. The boys have had so much fun, but are wiped out. One fun neat thing we also did this year was special in Prosper. FBC Prosper had Christmas Eve at the barn. The kids cooked smores, decorated cookies, saw animals. It was really fun and relaxing. Once again, I love Prosper.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. Happy New Year.

My favorite time of year!!









Have I told you how much I love Christmas. This year is awesome. We are having so much fun. Two of my favorite traditions we have started are baking goodies for our neighbors and going on a sleigh/hayride to look at lights. We started the cooking tradition 3 or 4 years ago. I love it. My parents come over and we bake all day. We make cookies, candy, and treats for about 30 families. It is so much fun. Last year we started the tradition to go look at lights on a sleigh ride. We had more go with us this year, so we did a hay ride instead. It was so much fun. Have a very Merry Christmas.

A MAC advertisement






So my busy little Jake decided this morning he wanted to wear lipstick. Of course he decided to wear my MAC long lasting lip whatever that does not come off. Seriously, it is like paint. We tried everything before church to get it off. I would not even kind of come off. So Jake and I did not attend church. About 5 this evening it started to wear off. So if you need a good lipstick. Try the MAC extended whatever lip gloss.




I love Prosper. Last night we went to a Prosper Country Christmas. There was a mini parade, vendors, singing, and shopping. The boys have so much fun. It has gotten bigger every year. This year we did not know most of the people there, which is totally opposite from when we started growing. I wish Prosper would stay little.




I also wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. This is the best time of year. Jake gasps at every Santa, light, snowman, or anything Christmas. The other day someone told Luke Happy Holidays. He looked at me and said "she said the wrong thing..she is supposed to say Merry Christmas." That made my day. He loves playing with nativity scenes. I am very blessed to have my boys.
