Pie Face

Grandma and Pawpaw got Cason the Pie Face game for Christmas and it has been a huge hit with the kids. We have laughed and laughed while playing this game because you never know when the pie is going to hit!

Cason was the first to get hit by the pie!

He thought it was hilarious!!

We laughed and laughed because he got so tickled.

Emory was next!

She later got hit right on the nose, it was pretty funny. There is also a sponge that you can wet and use which is the way Bradley prefers to play. We have had a lot of fun playing this game. Thank you Grandma and Pawpaw!

Christmas 2015

Christmas Eve we went to the candle light service at church. After we got home Emory put out her reindeer food that one of her friends gave her. She sprinkled it all over the back yard for the reindeer.

 Santa came and left Emory, Cason and Baby Cobb some great things!

Emory was awake bright (it was really still dark) and early and woke Cason up so they could see what Santa left them.

 Playing with Emory's new soccer table.

 Cason playing with his new crane. He picked up building materials (wrapping paper) and loaded it into his dump truck to take it to the dump (trash bag). He was a big help!

We gave Cason this workbench that Bradley made him for Christmas. He insisted on taking a picture with Bradley in front of the workbench, but then would only give silly poses. He LOVES his workbench and is already planning on what he is going to build. We also got both Emory and Cason toolboxes with real kid sized tools. If you are wondering why Bradley is wearing Ninja Turtle pants, Cason bought those for him!

We spent most of Christmas day playing with all our new toys and games. Then that afternoon we drove over to Lindale and went to Santa Land. Our December was so busy we hadn't had a chance to go yet. We got there about 4:45 and we were about 20th in line.

 This is how Cason and Emory went through Santa Land this year!

 They both love all the lights!

 Here we go!

 I only took a few pictures this year.

After Santa Land we drove over to Tyler to try and find something open so we could eat because everything in Lindale was closed. We were able to eat at Whataburger which the kids loved! We had a great relaxing Christmas this year and the kids have enjoyed playing with all their new games/toys!



Christmas Cookies

Christmas Eve we made Christmas cookies!

 Both Emory and Cason did a great job rolling and cutting out their cookies.

 Then after they cooled they went to work decorating the cookies.

 Emory sampled a few sprinkles too!

A few of their masterpieces!

We had some very decorated and colorful cookies this year! 

Christmas Tree Pictures 2015

Christmas Pictures 2015

Yesterday I took the kids up to the SFA Azalea Gardens to take a few Christmas pictures. It was a gorgeous day and after Cason's being sick for the past week both he and Emory were excited to get out and enjoy the day. We walked around the gardens for about an hour, plus I was able to get a few cute shots!

 Emory looks so grown up to me in this picture.

 My little clown! He gave me several interesting poses!

 

Christmas Tree Farm

Despite the cold and mist we headed to the Christmas tree farm yesterday to find our tree! This year we went to the farm in Mt. Enterprise because it was closer to the house and the weather wasn't the greatest.

 After a tractor ride around the farm the hunt was on to find the perfect tree!

 Cason measuring a tree! This tree didn't make the cut.

 Our Christmas tree 2015!

Emory being silly and surfing while Bradley cut down the tree!

 While they were shaking our tree to get all the loose needles out, this squirrel fell out too! Cason thought it was the funnies thing he had ever saw. He got a good laugh!!

 Emory waving from the caboose!

 All Aboard!

 Emory driving the train!

 The staff at the farm take your picture for their facebook page, but ours turned out pretty blurry.

And after many hours and one tired Momma.....the finished tree!

We also managed to get the other three small trees up as well!

The kids both did a great job hanging the ornaments and our house is officially ready for Christmas minus the outside lights. It has to stop raining first!
