Because it never stops being funny....

He does still very stongly believe that he is a lap dog. A seven pound lap dog. He's getting awfully close to tripple digits on the scale....but he believes he is a lap dog.

Waiting patiently

This year Santa didn't miss our stop. We waited out in the cold for him to arrive. She didn't feel good, but certainly wasn't going to miss a quick visit with St. Nick. I wish I did't have his hood on so you could see just how sweet his face is. He is super excited and shared a baggie of homemade candies with him.

As we were waiting. BFF's.

Highlights of the season

Of course, the gingerbread house. Isn't it funny how whenever we do something sweet that Riley goes and grabs an apple to eat. Not a sweet lover my littel boy. My little girl on the other hand...completely opposite. I did not post the photo of her licking the frosting off of the house, then, deciding to be more effective and just squirting it directly into her mouth. She likes her a sweet anything. Making cookies for Santa Clause. Apparently he likes sprinkles. Alot. Look a the focus on Riley's little face!~

My babies. Waiting for Santa to take a quick drive by on the fire-truck. Even though he is so busy!

And of course, our annual Keough/Keaton Christmas party. Always a highlight. Really just an excuse to get together where the men don't have to cook. We'll take it! You would think our families didn't live 2 doors apart the way the kids get so excited when we all head out together.

Ah! A fantastic Christmas with my little family. Even though we did spoil them a bit too much, they are such good little kids ~ they deserved it....and more.
