If you are on pinterest I am sure by now you have seen the millions of Christmas tradition ideas floating around. Here is one that I saw that I thought would be perfect for the boys. After dinner one night, Mimi suggested we go look at Christmas lights and literally in 10 minutes we threw together a little surprise from Max the elf. While the boys were upstairs playing we left some Christmas pjs, "Christmas Lights Express" tickets, and a bag of popcorn under the tree.
I'm not sure if they totally understood what Max was up to when they saw it, but as soon as I told them to put on their pjs for a trip to see lights they were ready to go! We drove around a nearby neighborhood and found so many fun Christmas decorations. The boys had a blast!
We also celebrated Christmas with Grandmommy and all of Cole's family this past week. It was great to see everyone. C & C loved opening presents and getting to play outside with cousins.
Connor and Carson made their first trip to the Trail of Lights. Despite the huge crowd it was such a fun night. I'm pretty sure the highlight for Connor was getting to ride the school bus from the mall to Zilker park. He has been dreaming about getting on a school bus for a long time. :)
HEB gave the boys several free books and the reindeer antlers Connor is sporting in the background.
Even with all the excitement going on this month some of my favorite times are just those every day moments like watching these two read books together. I am blessed and thankful to get to be their Mommy.
