Family Christmas Lunch

Mama cooked lunch for us and Junior, Cathy, Derek & Kim's family, and Greg & Tisha's family.  After lunch we just enjoyed some fellowship with each other.  The girls put on a show for us and sang some Christmas songs.  They did a beautiful job!

My beautiful babies!

Parties and Lights

Raleigh had her winter party at school and I was in charge of crafts.  It was crazy and lots of people, but it ended up being ok and I think the kids had fun so that is all that matters.  Jason managed to get a picture for me since my hands were in paint.  :)  Before going to school though, Garner was admiring the tree.  So cute!

After we had supper we put on our pajamas, went to get milkshakes, and went on a Christmas light scavenger hunt.  Raleigh loved it this year since she could read the list and mark them off on her own!

Polar Express Day

It's almost time for Christmas break at school and there are so many fun activities going on.  Why not have a Polar Express Day and let everyone wear their pajamas!  Such a fun day!

Holiday Lunch

Raleigh had her holiday lunch at school so I went to eat lunch with her.  I also took a few pictures to submit for the yearbook while I was there.

Charlotte Visit

We wanted to visit Ben & Amy in Charlotte this year and go watch Ben play a game.  It was nice that the weekend we chose was also the weekend that the Jenkins and Hendersons were going to visit as well.  We headed up on Friday afternoon and had dinner with everyone.  On Saturday we enjoyed a tour of the locker room from Ben, and on Sunday some kids stayed at the house and we headed to the game.  It was such a fun weekend and great to see a win as well.  We couldn't thank Ben & Amy enough for letting us come visit!

Sweet Naps

Garner loves playing with any kind of ball that he can find.  He loves them so much that he even takes naps with them!

Holiday Hotcakes

Mulberry has a tradition called Holiday Hotcakes that takes place on the first Saturday in December.  Dads come and cook breakfast, everyone enjoys breakfast, crafts, some entertainment from the chorus, and a visit from Santa.  I snuck away from the spiritwear to get a picture of Raleigh and Garner with Santa.  I'd say that Garner wasn't a fan!
