Grandma and Pop-Pop's Christmas
Santa left some presents at Grandma and Pop's house....
He surely left a WHOLE LOT of presents!
Grandma, Pop, Zoey and Dax
a silly one.. for silly grandkids....
Christmas Morning
We were excited when the kids slept in till 7 for Christmas! But they were definitely excited about all that Santa had brought them....
Most of Dax's presents were focused around cars, trucks, and anything that lights up, moves, or makes noises....
Zoey's were a bit more varied... her big gift was a Barbie Beach House...
In keeping with Dax's theme... he got the Little People Carnival...
Both kids got Dream Lites and Super Hero Capes!
Both kids were pretty excited about the toys... and its great that they can pretty much share any toy we got them... so the rest of the morning was spent playing with all the toys...
Then it was time for Grandma's house....

Christmas baking
For two weekends we have been baking... and baking ... and baking...
Last weekend I made treats for the kids teachers... So I saved a few and let them decorate.. Zoey was into it.. Dax... was into it for a few minutes and then would rather do something else... shocking!
He certainly didn't mind the eating portion....
This weekend we started with the gingerbread house kit from Ikea... Zoey has been begging to do this since we went to Tampa....
Then I sent the kids out of the kitchen and got to work baking Julie bread...
and making peppermint and oreo bark... sooo easy and sooo good!

End of Tampa...
We headed back to Tampa just in time to see Alex's soccer game... and try to collect Zoey since she camped out at Kimber's house for as long as possible...
On our second attempt to collect Zoey... Dax realized he can't handle Tampa...
STATE CHAMPS!
Northview was in the State Championship for football!!! Gary had been with the team all week, but I joined them on Friday right before the game.
THEY WON!! 42-21 it was awesome! soo excited for these boys...
It was such an awesome experience.. we are soo happy for those boys.. they deserve it... and Gary deserves a ton of credit for all the work he was done this year.. EVERYONE was singing his praises ... and who can blame them.. he is pretty amazing!
Quick Trip to Tampa...
Gary's football team made it to State Championship in Orlando.. so we used it as a chance to visit Tampa and of course our first stop was the mall with Abuela, Jessica, Jacob and Kelsey! We love them and soooo wish we lived closer! The kids got along sooo well! and as soon as we saw Kelsey she ran up and gave me the biggest hug! It made my day...
The trip to the mall would not be complete without a ride on the carousel!
love this girl and her "Disney" face!
That night... we headed to dinner with Papa and Nana.. and ALL of my siblings! It was a miracle we had all 5 of us in one spot! I only wish Gary were with us.. but he was with the team in Orlando :(...
We met up at Macaroni Grill... SHOCKER! and Dax was EXHAUSTED! He was soo well behaved though.. and Zoey was happy to be the center of attention...
Nana brought presents.. because that is what Nana's do!
Dax zonked out on Nana.... she was in heaven!
After we found Uncle Paul back at Abuela's
