It's officially Christmas Vacation around here. We have our tree up and half decorated, thanks to a tiny toddler that thinks ornaments do NOT belong on the tree. I am finished with all my shopping and am finishing up some last minute projects for family. Yesterday we celebrated Logan's first birthday with family but we spent his actual birthday running around town using all our birthday freebies. Logan had the best time!
Thanks for everyone that came to his party. The weather was perfect and Logan had a great time.
Our Elf, Emporer Moriarty (Star Wars and Sherlock references), came back and has been pretty hilarious this year. I think I am very excited that he will only be here for a few more nights. Owen loves that Elf and gets so excited to find him each morning... it's so worth it! He doesn't really buy the whole theory of the Elf is watching you and reporting to Santa. The kids had fun decorating the tree, even though it looks like a hot mess now. :)
We had a great time at Carson's work party at the Tempe Palms. It was a poker night with real chips (fake money), so it was easy to gamble away "fake" money. I killed it at the Craps table and we had upwards of 100k before we left to put into raffle baskets. We had a lot of fun!
We missed a few parties, but made it to the Heart Transplant Christmas Party at the hospital. Owen really wanted spicy chicken wings from the cafeteria and ate in the corner. After photos with the Superheros, he fell and smacked his forehead on the floor and has a giant bruise on his head. He was fine until the DJ started playing and then his head started pounding. We visited with friends, had a quick chat with Santa and it was great to see some of the nurses that took care of Owen in the spring.
(This was just before Logi reached down and pulled Santa's hat right off his head.)
We have busy week of fun planned and lots of baking to do. I have so much wrapping to do and it's my least favorite activity. Good thing Carson and Kam are so good at it! :) Kam finished finals with a 4.2gpa and is looking forward to a long two week break!
Here's to a relaxing and FUN Christmas Vacation!!
