The Rest of Christmas Break

Whew, what a break!  We had 2.5 weeks of activities, sicknesses, staying home, going out, friends over, over at friends, baking, movies, board games, cabin fever, crafts, crankiness, laughs, and more.

We were baking fiends this Christmas!

Making ornaments with beads.

Salt dough ornaments.

Taylor slept over at Peyton's house.

Sydney had Jordan sleep over.

Scary elf!!

We got to hang out at Ashley and Mike's house!  The two eldest children (of each family) battling at Battleship.

Taylor and Sutter playing on the ipad.

We got to make s'mores on the fire pit.

All the kiddos- Ashley took this on her nicer camera.

Mommy/Sydney date night!

This was on the door when we got home from our date. (from Taylor)

Making a troll gingerbread house.

NYE tooth loss!

Sydney and her baby.

We played LOTS of games this break!

Parker showing off all his hot wheels.

Crafts.

Lawn mowers!!

Playdate at CFA with Kody and Parker.

Hair cuts.

It's so straight!

In the meantime, Sydney got to play video games with Jake.

Taylor's turn!

CFA with Parker (not her brother, not the one mentioned above... apparently we picked a popular name for our son!) and Mason.

Sand art.

It was a really fun break!  It was nice to have a good amount of both family time and friend time.  Now we're back to the wind-and-grind... (and it was sadly I this morning who had to set 7 alarms to make sure I actually woke up!  The girls got up, dressed, ready to go on their own.  Mom of the year, right here!)
