On Dec. 15th Alex played in his first soccer game! Sort of. Well, he chased the pack of 3 year olds chasing the ball all over the field, off the field, onto other fields...!
Santa stopped by Alex's school and I took advantage of the photo op. This was Kate's first time seeing Santa ever - she is checking him out. We don't talk that much about Santa at our house so Alex is still a little bit afraid of him. I tried to get a picture of just the kids but, they both cried when I moved away...
Yes, this is the picture that is on the Christmas card we sent out, but there is a story behind it!! Christmas just snuck up on me this year and I didn't have time to schedule a photographer for the family shot so I set up the self timer on my camera, propped on a stool and a couple of books and no kidding - THIS was the 2nd picture we took! You know how hard it is to get one kid to look AT the camera?? We were shocked to see that we got all four of us looking at the camera!!
We had a white Christmas in Michigan! Alex's first snowman!
After all the presents were open - guess what Alex wanted to play with? A box.
Kate was happy with a box too or rather IN a box!!
And these were my favorite Christmas presents this year:
