Happy Holidays!

So we started off our holiday season with family and friends coming to see us. Kevin's friend Jeremy and his wife Robin stayed in Charlotte for almost two weeks during November. They are traveling across the country and are able to work from the road. They have a travel blog and we are very excited for them and their journey.   However, we did not get to see them as much as we would have liked to during their stay since they were at a campsite 45 minutes from us. Kevin and Jeremy did manage to find time to play a couple of rounds of golf, and we did get to have not one, but two sleepovers! We miss them for sure. Check out their travel blog! http://www.livebreathemove.com

The day before Thanksgiving, Bill and Teresa came up to visit for a few days. And EVERYONE LOVES Uncle Bill and Aunt Teresa. They are just the best people and I am so happy to have them as family. They live in Wales, but they were over in the states for the month trying to find some sun and golf.  I'm glad Kevin and Bill squeezed a round of golf in, and Yvonne and Teresa did the annual Black Friday shopping. Teresa spoiled herself with her first ever cashmere sweater. It was very sad to see them go, but they usually come back every May and November. We are looking forward to it.

And here comes our busiest season of all!! Merry Christmas!!

Here we are at the Thanksgiving Day parade. As you can tell they had more fun playing with the church doors. 

Me, Leah, Holden and Chelsea watching the 3 hour Thanksgiving Parade!

Jack's Christmas Concert! He was a little angel. Obviously fitting. 

Some serious brotherly love here. This was taken right after the concert. Jackson was really proud. 

Loving on Daddy!

Look at Jack's cutting skills! He helped me make photo props for our first party of the season! 

AND it was a BIG hit!!

Love this cutie pie!

My girls, Melissa and Shana

Girls just wanna have FUN!

Besties!

Jack got to go Christmas shopping at a local school for all of his family members. What he picked out for everyone was priceless. I could barely wait for Christmas just for this. 

Baby Camden. Sweet, sweet baby boy!

These two pictures of Carter crack me up!! His facial expressions say it all. 

My babies!! 

We had a blast at Bass Pro Shop! 

My very serious Jackson.

Brecken was even more serious. I wasn't sure if he was going sit on his lap. Cute boys. 

Our first time at the Botanical Gardens! Best photo of the season!!

I LOVE this picture. Yvonne is gorgeous! And I suppose Kevin isn't so bad himself. 

Grandma bought us cookies before we saw the lights!

Well even though it was 32 degrees outside and I was freezing...The boys still had a lot of fun. 

Carriage Ride!

These horses were so beautiful. 

My beautiful Boys!!

We were so happy to have a playdate with Lera and Natahsa! We've missed them so much!

Jack's School Christmas party! How cute are these ice cream cones!! 

Brecken's class did a gift exchange! These cars were pretty awesome! 

3rd Annual Ornament exchange! It was quite a bit smaller than last year, but it was fun! I love these ladies! 

The Real Housewives of Ballwood Court!

We had our first progressive party as neighbors!

We are waiting to take the train and see Santa!

Here it comes!!

Brecken lasted about two minutes before he fell fast asleep. 

These two cuties are excited for Santa!

Jack loves him some Holden!

This is where Jack decided to change his mind about what he wants for Christmas. He now wants a motorcycle, and we are 3 days before Christmas.
