What a difference a year makes!

So I've not been a very good blogger that's obvious! It's December again 08 this time :) We are once again counting down to the celebration of the birth of Jesus! The kids are excited! We have a new friend in our house the kids have named him "Talon" he's a secret so don't tell anyone :)

He makes a daily report each evening to Santa while the kids are sleeping then hides when he returns before the kids wake. Even Alexis has the "Talon watching" line down. The kids have even told him their wishes: a new bike for Braeden, a train for Braxton and a kitchen for Alexis--will santa listen?

Braxton and I started decorating while daddy was working and Braeden was at school. he couldn't wait to "deck the halls!" The boys thought once the tree was up it would officially be "decked!"

Some of the fun activities we've done so far are... making snowmen- out of shaving cream and paper, getting new ornaments, riding the carousel and train at the mall, ice skating and buying some new holiday tunes.

I think it's safe to say that we are having so much FUN!
