Festive Festivities

Ho, Ho, Ho?

This is the one!  We shall name it "Sir Pokes Alot"

 

Wreath Making

Just call me Martha

 "Upcycling discarded Christmas tree branches to make your own wreath, 

it's a good thing."

Taking a book from our friends, the Edmonds Family, we've started Friday Family movie night.  It's a great excuse to cuddle up together and watch ol' family favorites.

Now Playing

"Home Alone"

Apparently, Jayden finds physical slap stick comedy hilarious.  We enjoyed Jayden's hysterical laughing more than the movie!

Best Ice-Cream Bowl Ever!  

Thanks Auntie Angel : )

 

We have started our winter garden.  Here is our meal from the first harvest of Kale:

Salmon Fillets with Dill Quinoa and Lemony Kale 












We had our annual Clay and Jay Christmas Sleepover Party this weekend.  Here are the pictures:

 

 Jay was all excited to give this to Uncle Clay and
then as an afterthought asked what it was.
(What's Crown Royal?)

Lego Star War's Motorized Walking AT-AT - just what Jayden (and BaBa) always wanted!

Clayton is so much apart of our family.  

It was a great weekend, full of fun, food & drinks, games, marathon lego building sessions, and not much sleep.  

In the morning, we got up early to watch Chris and Clay play hockey.  Clayton got to try out his new present (hockey gloves) and we were able to pull off an early Christmas surprise for Chris.  With Clayton's help I was able to get Chris's dream hockey stick (the one that he's been drooling over for some time now but could not justify spending that amount of cash on himself).  

Thanks for helping us pull this off Clay (a.k.a Second Wife)!
