December part 2 - Santa, Lights and Parties

We saw Santa a few weeks ago at our neighborhood annual tree lighting. We saw so many friends this year and stayed the entire time. The kids had so much fun running around!

Waiting to see Santa!

Ava was so glad she took her letter since Santa asked them to tell him just ONE thing they want for Christmas!

Keegan asked for the new Batcave

And Ava asked for a desk for her room

Carriage Ride....

We spent a night in deer field looking at Christmas lights...

Keegan's class had a Christmas pizza party on Thursday. Keegan took down 4 pieces of pizza, breaking his record of 3 from last year. This boy loves some pizza!

And Ava had a great time at her party on Friday!  We decorated a few weeks ago and it turned out so cute. 

We made snow globes for all the kids' lockers :)

We left Ava's party and headed for Northpark! I really think it's my favorite day of the year.  We spent a few hours shopping, eating and checking out all the Christmas fun :)

Ava shopped for build a bear accessories and Keegan shopped for Star Wars items. Of everything at the Disney store, he chose these Chewbacca pjs and a star wars thermos. 

We found a mask to match and he's planning to wear it all to the movie on Saturday :-). 

And now Christmas is here! We are a thankful crew. Grateful for a Savior that brought us Hope! Merry Christmas 2015
