Getting Ready for Santa

Kyle has been waiting SO long for Santa that I actually wanted him to know that it was finally time for Santa to come we made a HUGE deal about it. We kicked off Christmas Eve morning by making Gingerbread man cookies for Santa Claus. The cookies turned out SO cute! Ben and I both decorated and we let Kyle make his own cookies. LOOK at how any sprinkles he used! Oh well it was Christmas and he was having a good time. That is all that mattered! :-)

He got the hang of using the icing and iced some too. However we ended up spreading his icing out on his cookies because he wanted to add sprinkles to everything.
After nap time, we all got dressed to go to Swainsboro for Christmas with Ben's grandparents. We went outside for Kyle to spread the "magic reindeer food" for Santa's reindeer. I knew it would be too late and too cold for us to be outside after we got home so we did it a little early.

Kyle REALLY got into throwing it everywhere! :-)


After we got home from Swainsboro, we got Kyle ready for bed and then told him that it was time to hang the special Santa Key on the front door so Santa can come inside. (How else is Santa suppose to come in since we do not have a chimney!?!?)


Then Ben and Kyle picked out gingerbread cookies for Santa.


And Kyle got Santa some milk.....


And now he is all ready for Santa Claus to come see him!

Isn't this picture SO sweet!?!

Nannie and Pa's Christmas

On Sunday December 20 we went to Swainsboro for Ben's grandparents Christmas. Kyle had a great time playing with Marti.
DeeDee and Little Pa gave Kyle and Marti a "Stomp" game with numbers and music for them to play with. I think Kyle had more fun stomping it as hard as he could and watching all the numbers falling out.

Kyle being silly with Marti's basket. Everything has to be a hat with him!
Playing with the Thomas the Train set that The Murray's gave him.


Christmas with Daddy and Zack

Saturday, Dec 19 kicked off a week long Christmas Celebration with all of the families. I can't believe I got this behind in my blog postings but I am going to catch up now!

Anyways....Saturday morning we opened presents with Daddy and Zack. My Mom, Vicki and Aunt Ree also came down.

Zack and Kyle are playing with the Dragon Castle but stopped long enough to take a picture.


After the morning of activities at our house it was nap time and then time to go to Vidalia for the Family Christmas with Daddy's family.
