Christmas holidays!

We had our tree up early November and it felt like we were waiting forever for Christmas! But then it came and went in a flash! I think it was because we were having way too much fun! 

Loads of pictures below! 

Let's start with the week before Christmas! 

Little K had 2 Christmas concerts at school! 

Santa was there too! 

We got to meet so many of his friends and parents.

They had cookies and hot chocolate! 

Baby M had a Christmas party at daycare too! 

 

Christmas Eve was at my grandparents home. We love getting together with my whole family! Aunts, uncles, cousins! 

We even did a remake picture of the grandchildren then and now ha! 

We ate yummy food and played games 

 Pie face fun! 

We watched midnight movies! 

 

 Cousin love! 

 We got home very late and the kids were pooped! 

But! Up early Christmas Day!! 

Baby M's first Christmas really being involved. He was soo excited! 
 

Once we opened up all the gifts and had a big breakfast to talk about all that we are so grateful and thankful for... I made a big turkey dinner! 

Soo goood! 

 Loving this time of year and all the family time! 

Another one of  Our Christmas traditions is going to watch a movie! 

Of course it was Star Wars!!!

Mr K got a lot of new Star Wars items this Christmas! Clothes, books, art, speakers! 

 

Love these boys soo much! 

Merry Christmas friends!! 
 
 

 
 
 
 

 
 

Waterpark fun

So this is my second attempt to this blog post. I wrote one yesterday and for some reason it didn't save :(

Winter is here! We've had a few snow falls already. Last week we had one snow fall that made our roads a mess! It took me 6 hours to get home from work! 

After a week like that, we were looking forward to a mini family getaway on the weekend. 

We headed to Niagara Falls for some waterpark fun! 

Baby M was going up the stairs and down the kiddie slide. He's such a big boy!! 

They both had a blast! It was nice to be in a water park when it was a cold snowy day outside! 

After a fun filled afternoon at the waterpark we headed baby to the hotel to wash up and head out for dinner and game night! 

RainForest Cafe! Yum! Ok can I say one thing, the food portions are huge. We were stuffed! 

The kids love the RainForest Cafe. The little storms that happen while we are having dinner. 

 
 

We then went to the arcade! 

Little k was soo excited! He loved the Jurassic park and ghost busters games the most. 

We also did mini putt! Little k and DH getting competitive with eachother was the cutest thing. While baby M threw the golf balls all over haha! 

 

 

 
 

 
 

Once we were all gamed out we went to the car and drove through Niagara Falls to see the decor and lights.

 

Perfect ending to our family date day! 

We went back to the hotel and changed to our pj's, watched a movie and we all fell asleep. The kids were exhausted from a fun busy day! 

 2 more days till Christmas Eve!!!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 

Santa's House

Christmassy things like Elf on the Shelf! 

Little K wakes up eager to find Elfolo in a new spot. All over the house and sometimes with treats! 

Baby M goes around looking for him too. 

 He's been so much fun this year! Ha!

This past weekend we went to see Santa! We love going to the tree farm to visit Santa's house. 

Baby M wasn't thrilled tho. 

We went on a wagon pulled by horses. 

We roasted marshmallows 

 

We had a fun afternoon! 

 

 

Only a few weeks left! I am almost done my Christmas shopping. I took a few days off to shop! I love shopping and wrapping gifts close to Christmas time. I love the full Christmassy feel of that!

We also love to give back every year. Some years we do more than other years but we make sure that every year we give back. I'm so happy that little K is learning about this at home, school and church.  He's eager to help and happy to make other kids happy. 

At work we sponsored a family. A family with 2 boys. I'm dropping off the gifts at work tomorrow. They will put everyone's gifts together and deliver it to the family.

Every little bit helps. If we all give a little, that makes a lot! We hope to bring them big smiles this Christmas.
