A brief December recap

Man, it's been almost 2 months since I've updated.  Guess the boys are doing their jobs at keeping me busy!!!  Everything is going good - the boys are getting excited about Christmas!  Jim helped with cutout cookies last night, and then both boys helped frost them today. Ben was very good at making sure every single part of the cookie was covered in frosting, and plenty of sprinkles!  They've been working together at wrapping all the presents...

Aunt Ashley came back home with us after Thanksgiving!  We had a great week with her, making gingerbread houses, going into D.C. to the Botanical Gardens and the Air & Space museum; lunch & shopping in Old Town; decorating for Christmas; Scottish Walk Parade in Old Town - we were busy all week long!  We're so thankful & grateful for her spending the week with us, we didn't have to worry about finding a babysitter for the wedding we were invited to, as she was our great babysitter!!!

Elfie has been busy in our house - watching over the boys making sure they're good boys so Santa can come!  It's fun to see them wake up in the morning, scanning the room and then seeing a big smile on their face when they spot him!
