Advent Day 21 - 25

I'm finally getting around to posting this - had to wait for some pictures of Christmas from my dad's camera.

Day 21 - Build a blanket fort and read Christmas stories with our Christmas socks on.

Day 22 - Polar Express Train

Day 23 - Go see Tangled with the cousins

Day 24 - make some homemade ornaments/ Christmas Eve service/ Christmas with Mimi and Bapa

Day 25 - MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Christmas at home and then Christmas at Grandma Elaine's

The fort that daddy built - it was big enough for both kids to stand up inside it and for mommy and daddy to comfotably sit and relax. It was a lot of fun!! Rhett had decided that outside the fort there was a dragon that was waiting to get us and we played along - that is until he got genuinely scared. And since Addison was sick with "the cough" and ended up on our bedroom floor around midnight Jeremy resigned to the confines of the fort to finish off the night. He is still a kid at heart!! Thanks daddy for such a fun fort - I'm sure that it will be built again and again.

Santa took time out of his busy schedule to take some pictures with the kids - Addison, Rhett, and cousins Avery and Emma

Addie with her cousins Emilee and Elizabeth - they were so excited to see Tangled!

After the movie picture - we both LOVED it!!! Super cute movie

Christmas Eve at Mimi and Papa's - after opening their stockings the first thing Rhett did was pop not one by two suckers in his mouth.

Just what she wanted!

Just what he wanted - and mommy because puzzles will keep him occupied for a long time :)

Jammies to match her Rupunzel Barbie

Buzz Lightyear Jammies - he's trying to push the buttons and then saying "they don't work" - he is expecting to hear "to infinity and beyond"
