Waiting for Christmas...

We are starting to settle into a holiday routine around here. 
Ms. Barb asked us to particpate in the Toys for Tots with her church again this year. 
We also had Chance go through his toy box and clean out toys that he rarely plays with so that he can "make room for Santa to bring him more."
Chance was such a good sport about this and agreed to donate many of his toys. 

He did make me laugh for several days after the donation though because he kept opening his toy box and saying..., "Momma! I don't like Christmas much!"


Ms. Barb really wanted a picture of Chance and Savannah in the middle of all of the toys that they had wrapped to donate. 
 

We got our photos after several takes and we learned that....

Savannah will try and put everything in her mouth, and

Chance will do almost anything if you bribe him with a cookie. 

Speaking of cookies....

Our other holiday tradition has turned into making cookies and watching football on December Sunday afternoons. 
 
 

My old friend from high school, Brandi Andersen and her daughter Reese,  joined us for the cookie bake this year.

Reese and Chance play so well together. 

We had a blast and laughed more than one should whilst making cookies. 
 
 

and
our newest addition to our Chirstmas tradition is plasma car racing!
I can not tell you how many times we have all raced around the dining room, kitchen, and toy room on this little car. 

We are so excited for Christmas.
