Sleigh riding Christmas Eve Day!!!

Well if you can't tell by these pictures these kids had a blast, it was a beautiful day. Nice and warm the kids had a ton of fun sleigh riding. It was great, Uncle Brigg and Aunt Jen came to play with us. Hunter and Makenna were little buddies coming down the hill over and over and then Grandpa or Grandma would come back down the hill and pick them up and take them back up to the top. The snow was so good that day the kids would go so fast they would hit the fence. We had way to much fun!!!

Darling Christmas Party

My little girls were dressed up so cute for the Christmas party, I had to take a couple pics of them before the party started. When we arrived every one went crazy over Saysay wanting to hold her and play with her, Makenna was so excited to be with all of her cousins.

This year the Darling Family Christmas Party was a lot of fun. We all brought one of our favorite finger foods to share, we brought barbeque weenies which were way good. We ate lots of food, then we did the manger scene with all the kids dressing up as different parts. Makenna was the angel, SaySay was baby Jesus and John was Joseph. SaySay was so funny, she kept stretching out flat and then rolling off the foot stool. The kids did great, we all laughed and had so much fun. We then opened Christmas presents from Grandma Paula. The kids loved their presents and had a great time!

Zoo lights

This year we decided to go a do Zoo lights for Family night the Monday before Christmas, we got the whole family together we were only missing one person and that was Sarah she was working. We all met up at the Zoo and walked through the zoo looking at all the lights, it was pretty fun the kids had a blast running around, it was cold we all bundle up to keep warm and then after we all went and ate at Apple-bees. It was a good night with great memory's!!!

Every year Santa Clause comes and visit the kids, The best is that he brings Mrs. Clause with him. They sit the kids down read them a book and then one by one pulls a present out of the big red bag They come and sit on his lap and tell them what they want for Christmas. Makenna was so cute of course she told he she wanted a HOT PINK SPARKLY BARBIE CAR!! Sayla did not cry I was sup rise she didn't mind it. The kids had a blast!!
