Wow December has already been busy. On December 2nd he had his annual Christmas Program, and he was an angel. He did soo good singing and doing the motions, what a difference a year makes. On December 5th his class went on a field trip on the polar express, he loved it. Santa even came on and said he remembered Daddy as a little boy!!! Last weekend we made a gingerbread house, this has been a tradition since Hudson was two, he looks forward to it every year. Last year Bailey got to it and ate some, so this year we made sure to put it where Bailey can;t reach. Last night I took the boys to our community clubhouse to see Santa. Hudson was so excited and told Santa he was a good boy. He also told him he wanted a big Dinosaur, a race track, a cowboy horse, star wars toys and Harrison wants a leap table. Hard to believe Christmas is just 2 weeks away, wow!! Dave is working longer hours for the holidays and I took over the Kindergarden postion till Febuary.

I love Christmas, its my favorite time of year. This year we put two trees up. The boys is upstairs in the game room and they got to pick out all the decorations. The other is in the Family room, we got a 11 foot real tree and its the biggest tree we have ever had. Now we just have to get the outside decorations up. The boys colds are finally getting better, its been a long week!!!
