Full weekend

We had a super packed weekend but it was so much fun. Saturday afternoon we packed up and headed to my dad and step family's house to have dinner. We got there around 4:30 and went to dinner. Then afterwards we headed to my step brothers work to get ice cream and then back to their house. They gave us our Christmas presents since we weren't sure we would see them again before Christmas. The kids LOVED everything. The boy got a transforming Batcar that rocks his world and the girls got Moxie girls and Barbie clothes. All 3 of them have played with their gifts nonstop. :) I got a Yankee candle votive sampler set and a beautiful silver bracelet. We visited for quite a while and got home around 10:00 or so. Such a great night. Thanks again guys. We had the greatest time and LOVE our gifts.

My dad teaching the boy to open his Batcar.


The girls got to sit on my dad's motorcycle. They thought it was awesome. The boy was afraid of it.

Group shots. Macie looks possessed in these. She just can't let me get a normal smile pic of her. EVER. The first one is with my stepsister.

Then in comes my dad.

Then my stepmom joins too.

A super great visit. Hope to do it again soon. :)


Then on Sunday we went to my grandma's for her birthday. Just a small family celebration with a great cake. Afterwards we went to my mom and aunts house to look at their Christmas trees and let the kids see that they have presents waiting under the tree. Last night I went Christmas shopping and came home and CRASHED from exhaustion. Packed but wonderfully peaceful weekend.
