We had a ton of fun during winter break! I wanted to share some highlights.

Our pesky little elf wrapped our Christmas tree…

Jack left a very detailed schematic for Santa to make sure each reindeer got their proper carrots…

Jack got a Christmas surprise! We went to Disneyland – just him and I! You can read more about that at Disney In The Desert.

The boys have also been getting a lot of Daddy time in the garage with Michael’s new weight bench. They rush out when he gets home so they can exercise. I love it!

My Holiday was spent recuperating. But it was quiet and nice. And I always love the pictures and posts about the boys and what is going on in their life.

Becca,

It looks like you had a wonderful holiday!! I have to ask you a question though….did the pesky little elf get coal from Santa for wrapping up the Christmas tree??? lol

You definitely had your hands full trying to get everything done in such a short time. A wedding, Disney, a visitor and so much more….it sounds like mom might need a holiday from the holidays now (I know you wouldn’t trade a minute of it though).

It’s the great thing about being a parent we can make memories that last a lifetime so easily. All we have to do is take the effort to make it happen. You did a great job!

P.S.
I apologize for my lack of follow through over the last couple of months. Life became overly complicated. I am working on getting back into the habit or doing what I do second best writing, blogging and sharing with others (being a dad and husband is first). I haven’t forgotten I owe you a post (if you still want me to write it for you)

Aaron,
That elf was SMART. He went back to the North Pole before Santa stuffed the stockings – otherwise, he would have gotten coal!

I’m enjoying my break from the holidays by catching up with work while the kids are in school. I love my quiet hours during the day!

Don’t apologize for a lack of follow through! Life comes first – always. I would love to introduce you to my readers whenever you’re ready!
