The Christmas season brings so many fun times and family memories. The yearly
Polar Express trip and
decorating the tree that I already mentioned is a few, but some of the things that are not caught on camera but done each year are things like only listening to Christmas music in the car and iTunes radio, only reading Christmas books at bedtime, only watching Christmas movies for movie nights, feeling like I should set up a December gluing station to repair all the ornaments that get broken with a little boy, and at least 3 batches of
homemade cocoa made each year! Fun stuff that we all love, well not the broken ornament part, that make the season special. Here are some things that were caught on camera throughout the month......

 |

 |
| Santa came! |
 |
| First for Nolan sitting on Santa's lap. Even a few weeks before at Polar Express he would not go near him or when we got Nathan''s Santa pic! I thought it was funny how he chose this Santa to sit on first.....maybe because his beard was falling off, has a wrist watch, and fake boot covers? Just a thought.... |
 |
| Cocoa light night! |
 |
| Baking our annual sugar cookies |
 |
| more mall train! |
 |
