Christmas Day

Christmas Morning in Spartanburg. The boys loved what they got for Christmas. It was fun to see them so excited to see what Santa left for them.

Christmas Eve

We went to Spartanburg for Christmas this year. We go there every year!Jan and Larry (Aunt Martha Jane was there too) are wonderful hosts and Christmas gets more exciting every year. John Lawrence was so excited about Santa Claus it was priceless.

Boys were in town so we took the opportunity to snap some pictures. Nothing like a little bribery (You can't open gifts until we take some pictures)!

Mac loved Santa!

December Events Continued......

Allison, Dan and the boys along with Dad, Diane and Gregory spent the weekend with us the weekend before Christmas. We had a great time! The boys had fun playing together and it was great to see the Grandparents. Gregory was like a big kids to the boys they love him!

Stone Mountain~Christmas~

We went to Stone Mountain Park for their Christmas Celebration about 1 1/2 weeks before Christmas. We tried to go on Saturday night with the Pangles' but it was full to capacity, (the boys were crushed) so we came back to our house and had s'mores in the fireplace and played then went back earlier the following night.



It so fun and magical through the eyes of kids. There are over 2 million lights, 4D Polar Express movie, train rides, s'mores, lazer show, a snow angel and some light snow at the end of the night. It was our second year going and it is definitely a family tradition. (We got annual passes to Stone Mountain for Christmas this year from Larry and Jan so we will be there a lot throughout the year).

Celebration Academy Christmas Program

John Lawrence had his Christmas program the last week of school before the Holidays. He was a shepherd in the play and then they had a party afterward. It was a lot of fun and so cute to watch! I am writing this on the night before he goes back to school. He is so excited for school to start back. He has missed it over the last 2 weeks.

Spend the Night Party at Aunt Martha Jan's House

In December as well, Aunt Marth Jan (not Jane- per John Lawrence) invited John Lawrence and Walker to spend the night at her house for the night and have a party. Henry decided he wanted to go too! So they started the night off with pizza, popcorn, and movie. The next morning it was off to eat biscuits and drink a coke for breakfast. Martha Jane lives in a condo in downtown Atlanta so it was a really fun spend the night party. The boys and Martha Jan had a great time!

Middle of December trip to GranJan and Pop's House

I am so behind in blogging so here goes a recap of December.

Jan and Larry had all 4 boys for a couple of days in December to make Gingerbread houses and go to Hollywild (look at Christmas lights and feed the animals). They had a great time and Jan captured all the moments and then sent pictures. They had a great time and Mason and I had some time to complete our Christmas shopping and enjoy some quiet time.

Thanks for keeping all 4 boys!

Visit with Santa 2008

We took the boys to see Santa yesterday and they did great. Mac was not afraid at all. JL even added some new things to his list.
