Christmas break

We had such a wonderful Christmas break! it was three weeks of resting and playing with friends and family. We were a little worried at first because it was our first Christmas stayin in Texas but it was definitely a success!
The kids got a crazy amount of gifts this year! It was so much fun watching their faces when they came into to living room and saw all the gift and looked at santa's cookie plate and empty milk glass and realized santa was there. Rian ran to the table looked at the glass and saw bites taken out of the cookies and looks at us with wonder and excitement on her face and said " oh my gosh!! mommy santa really was here! look look he drank his milk!.... but why he didn't eat his cookies all gone?"
With every present the kids opened they acted like it was the best gift ever in the whole world! they would just stare at it for a while with HUGE smiles on their faces and jaws hanging open in shock afraid it would disappear or something ha ha it was too cute!
they really enjoyed all the clothes they got too! It is so much fun now that they are a bit older and even clothes are exciting. They both loooove clothes and shopping for them its kinda funny how excited they get over an outfit!



In the week before chirstmas we had a chance to hang out with alot of friends, wish I would have taken more pics of everyone but we had fun! It was nice to see everyone that we havent seen in a few months being busy with school and all.

The kids also got a chance to to alot of hanging out with daddy! again sorry I didn't take any pics of the fun but these few. They love it when brock is around especially when he wrestles with them or plays horsey.


After brock had been home for a few days rian asked him (while he was watching a movie) " daddy... are you forgetting to go to school or something?" Brock then said "No Rian, I get to be home with you for a few weeks isnt that going to be fun!" Rian looked at him then the t.v and then back at him and said " No, cause you are taking my t.v!" I cracked up laughing! she was serioulsy upset over the fact that she couldn't dictate what movie we were watching. she just loves to be in charge.


We also got to go to Brock's school's christmas party. We thought it would be nicer to see santa there instead of fighting the crowd at the mall. Turns out santa was one of brock's professors! The kids loved the party and all the decorations.

Before brock professor dressed up like santa for the kids he was out in normal clothes enjoying the party. Maddox saw him across the room and immediately stopped his dance moves he was showing me. He stared at the man mouth wide open then whispered " santa.... santa...." then yelled " Santa!!!!!" and took off running toward him before we could stop him. He plowed into the teacher screaming "santa your here!" it was so funny just about everyone at the party saw this and busted up laughing.
