Christmas party after Christmas party .... with a little more thrown in!

My small group Christmas get together

Cousin's night out.  All the cousins hit up the town.  We tore up the dance floor at Conrad's (at least, Ben, Jamie and I did).  A few others danced at their seats!  We had a great time!

 Lamberty Christmas.  We had the Lamberty Christmas in Kansas City this year at mom and dad's.  It was great to see everyone!

We really wore Ben out at cousin's night out!

 Christmas parties at school.  All three kids had their parties at school last Thursday.  They all had great parties!

Penguin Park - Korinne has been begging to go to Penguin Park for the last couple weeks.  I decided last Friday I would set aside some time to take her.  Boy, was it cold!!!!!!  She loved every minute of it, though, and would have stayed all day! I was just glad the Elsa earmuffs were in the car.  I have no idea why I didn't bring a stocking cap and gloves for myself!

Baking and crafting!

Karlee got this house from the Legott's at Lamberty Christmas.  She couldn't wait to put it together!

Best buds watching Christmas Vacation together.

We got these ornaments for the kids from my mom's friend, Eunice.

Korinne got a house from the Leggott's too. They love those houses. Explanation on the two oven pictures, I found Kohen and Mark just sitting watching the oven waiting for it to be done.

The kids decorated a gingerbread house at Grammie and Pa's yesterday.  They brought it home and have loved eating pieces off, one by one!

4th annual girls Christmas dinner.  We tried to eat at Cooper's Hawk but it was a VERY long wait.  So, we headed over to Kona Grill.  The food was great!  We headed back over to Cooper's Hawk for a quick wine tasting, which was also great! 

 Kohen and Karlee had play dates at the house today.  Kohen had Connor over and Karlee had Reagan over. They had a lot of fun playing.  They made pizzas for lunch and played their little hearts out!  Pictured above is Kohen's list he made yesterday of what him and Connor would do on their play date.  He likes to have a plan!

I can't believe how nice the weather is for being December 23rd!  Luckily, the rain held off for a bit in the morning and the kids were able to get out and play for a while!
