Getting Ready for Christmas

We had a great weekend this week! Last night (Friday) Skeet Wiggins had his annual Christmas Party with food, drinks, a live band, and all our great friends. Parker had an awesome time! He was a dancing machine on the dance floor. Good thing he look a late nap, because he stayed up until about 10:30 - WAY past bed time. But he did so good and had a great time dancing and hanging out with Grandma Chris.
Then today we took our family Christmas pictures (more on that below) and also went to C-Arrow Stables Winter Wonderland. They had pony rides, a hay rack ride, petting zoo, Santa was there, hot chocolate and hot cider, and a live nativity scene. Parker had a great time as you can see below.

All Santa could get from Parker was some "nucks." Maybe the next time we meet Santa we can get him to sit on his lap. Maybe...

Good ole Eeyore was there. I don't think Parker quite knew what to think of him.

And our family Christmas picture. We had plans to do it earlier in the week, but it was too cold! I think the high was 19 degrees the day we planned on doing it...BRRRR! It was pretty nice out today - about 20 degrees warmer! Thanks Grandma Lisa! Here are a couple that we really liked.

Parker looks so ornery here!

We finally threw out the old fake tree and purchased a real tree this year. Well, we really didn't throw it out...it has a new home in my classroom - the kids are loving that! Anyway, we picked out our tree and took it back home to nestle it in. Parker liked to help put up the bulbs. It will be so fun one day when our tree is filled with all kinds of school-made ornaments to hang on the tree. He is all about "LIGHTS" right now. On a tree or a house, he will not let one go unnoticed!!
