New Years Eve

 We have always spent our New Years eve with my in-laws but, since moving back home we have decided to forgo the drive since, I really don't enjoy driving home with drunks on the road and stay home for an at home celebration with our kids.

 The kids never stay up that late anyway, so we will get to enjoy watching the "WIG DROP" hahaha on Watch What Happens Live sans children. Little does my husband know that yet... hee hee but, I'm sick and not just in the head so, a low key celebration with my last cup of good ol' fashioned Mexican Hot Chocolate(Yes, I'm starting my annual diet) wrapped in my new giraffe print, Sherpa lined blankie with tons of tissues all while watching my favorite channel with my favorite man sounds like the perfect way to celebrate 2011.

  What are your plans for New Years eve? If you're going out be sure to check out my New Years eve make-up tips and tricks on my other blog www.shawnadmakeup.blogspot.com

Here's to a warm & cozy New Year!

Our Christmas Extraveaganza

 

 Here the princess is not quite sure she wants to share her monkey backpack with her cousin .

My big boy and me

 

  We brought Sunday along for the festivities as well.

 On Christmas day we spend the morning opening presents at our house then go next door to Papa & Nana's house to have breakfast and open more presents. This year my brothers brought their A game and scored big points with the kids! They got everything they asked for! What awesome uncles my kids have.

 

 YAY MOONDOUGH!!

 OHHHHH NERF GUN!!!!

 YESSSSS BLACK OPS!!!!!

  

The day after Christmas we spend with my super fabulous Grandma at my Aunts house. By this time the kiddos are all pictured out and refuse to take any more pictures so, I have to be sneaky about it. Here the princess is hiding from me.

 This has to be one of my favorite pictures. My little family with my Grandma and Papa. This is what Christmas is really all about...Celebrating the gift that God gave us with the ones we love.

I hope your Christmas was filled with lot's of love and great family memories too.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!

Santa might not make it tonight

Sorry kids Santa might not make it tonight on account of being destroyed by the dog.
