It's Starting To Look A Lot Like Christmas

Gingerbread House
Every year when I was growing up my family made
Gingerbread Houses. This year I got to make one
with the boys and we had a blast!
Scott wanted to decorate his side first
Isaac was very detailed about he wanted his half to look.
It turned out really cute! I would consider
it a success. Isaac even had ideas for what he
want to do for the house we make next year.

There is a spot for a picture on Isaac's stocking
and this is the picture he wants in it.
Tired Boys

Scott was one tired boy... he must have played hard.

Not even Star Trek could keep Isaac awake.

We had hoped to be able to go the zoo,
but it was snowing too much.

Getting Ready for Christmas

After Thanksgiving
A few weeks ago my Mom and Dad came to visit
and they brought a note pad that says
my old name and address on the top.
I found one of the sheets in the kitchen...
Isaac crossed out my mainden name
and wrote Johnson. (I guess now we know
that he thinks of me as family)
CHRISTMAS TREE!!!
This is our first Christmas tree!

Paul put it up the day after Thanksgiving.
It's not a very good picture...
but this is Paul putting on the lights.
The boys were really excited about
decorating the Christmas Tree
Paul had to put up the high ones...
First Weekend of December
Paul printed out some coloring pages
for the boys, I think they turned out nice
Scott is learning how to color inside
the lines really good!

Isaac colored his REALLY well!!!
he was so cute, he colored this while I was gone
and as soon as I walked in the door he gave it to me.
He was so proud of it. He even put a gift tag on it
so I would know it was from him.
SANTA at Woods Cross Elementary
I asked Isaac what he asked Santa for...
He said, "Exactly what I picked out to give Scott!"


They were so cute! We waited in line for an
hour to see Santa. they were the best behaived
kids in line... which was a nice surprise.


When I asked Scott what he asked for he
told me it was the thing that he pointed out
at Target that they would both want.
Next weekend we are going to see the lights
that they put up at the zoo.
