A night with friends and William's Tree Farm

Andrew, Kaden, and Peyton at their  annual Christmas "get together".....

Williams Tree Farm

Our 8th Anniversary

Mike and I got to get away to Vegas for our anniversary the first weekend of December. Mike's parents stayed at the house with Andrew. It was nice to spend 3 days doing whatever we wanted, which mainly consisted of watching football, eating, sleeping, and gambling (not in any particular order). We even came home ahead, which was a nice bonus!

While we were gone, Andrew was having a vacation of his own. Grandma Marcia was so excited to take over elf duty in the evenings.

They also had some fun making a gingerbread house.

They even took him to see Santa. 

A fun weekend for everybody!

Thanksgiving Weekend

On Thanksgiving day, we stuck to our usual agenda and went to Mike's parents' house for the day.

Andrew was just loving this Turkey hat he made at daycare. He wore it for hours until it ripped.

Working on decorating his place mat...

Below is his "Tree of Thanks" for this year. Gotta love it. :)

Over Thanksgiving weekend, we also put up our Christmas decorations.

Hie elf, Tank, has also been coming around. Every morning, he bounces out of bed and asks where his elf is.

We also saw the movie Frozen (he fell asleep!) and went over to Kids Day in Woodstock on Sunday. All kids got in a free showing of Rudolph at the movie theater. It was showing on all screens in the morning. It was adorable! They had people handing out red noses and antlers at the front, and he even got to meet Rudolph inside.

We got him his own kiddy box of popcorn with a juice box and gummies. After some shopping and lunch, we watched the Christmas Parade in the square.
