Before I get to this year's Christmas, here is a look back at us with our angel wings last Christmas. This was an interactive play at church and we were cast as angels. We got to decorate our wings and learn a song to perform during our part. It was a lot of fun and a good memory.

| Hey Mark, your halo is crooked! |
As always, one of the many holiday events are the school Christmas parties. The kids are so excited because it is the last day of school before Christmas break.
 |
| Keaton 5th grade party. |
 |
| Keaton with Gabriel Morales |
 |
| Keaton and Ms. Peters |
 |
| Keaton with Ms. Parks |
 |
| Cort with Ms. Jenkins, 3rd grade |
 |
| Cort with the student teacher, Ms. West |
 |
| Gage's daycare class getting ready for their book exchange. |
 |
| Gage was in Ms. Jennifer's class. |
 |
| He was super excited we came to his party. |
Last year Santa sent an elf to our house. The elf is supposed to report back to Santa if the kids are being naughty or nice. Our elf is not like other elves. She doesn't have a name and is bigger than most. She is soft and plush. She was picked by Santa especially for us!
 |
| You never know where you will find the elf. Sometimes she just likes to hang around. |
 |
| I think she longs to be a trapeze acrobat. |
 |
| Other days she is lazy and just relaxes. |
 |
| But watch out because she can be naughty too! |
 |
| The kids love looking for the elf. |
 |
| This morning we found her in disguise. Gage was a little upset though. He didn't want to share his new Mr. Incredible costume. |
 |
| Very funny Elf! |
 |
| I guess she was trying to tell Gage he was being a little devilish. |
 |
| Sometimes she even brings gifts! |
 |
| I guess she couldn't wait for us to unwrap it. |
 |
| We had Christmas with Mark's family at Jane's house. Gage helped Kayla and Aunt Julie make a delicious fruit salad. |
 |
| He's a lot of help in the kitchen! |
 |
| Time to open gifts!!! Gage loves Jake the Pirate! |
 |
| Keaton got Chima from Kayla and Ryan. |
 |
| So did Cort. |
 |
| Nana and Papaw got them both remote control helicopters. I think Cort is just a little excited. |
 |
| In celebration of Cort's performance as Elvis, Nana gave him an Elvis Christmas tree ornament. |
 |
| Jake's pirate ship, Bucky for Gage. |
 |
| And the best gift of all, Mr. Incredible costume from Nana and Papaw. |
 |
| I didn't think he would ever take it off. He loves being a superhero! |
 |

 |
