Savea's school Christmas party

Hi family! I will apologize right now...I will probably be posting quite often. I want us to be able to share our day in and day out experiences with each other. So.....I hope that you will do the same. Especially with all of our new and precious additions. I love that we can share with each other. I love you guys so very much!



So... Savea and his class were suppose to be racing to the tree and back by doing the crab walk. As you can see, Savea and his friend decided to beat everyone by running to the tree instead. I don't think they knew we were watching them.


On their last day, they had pajama day. They watched Polar Express and drank hot cocoa. Mrs. Leydig's husband brought in reindeer antlers and noses for all the kids.


Savea's 1st grade class.

Thanks Grandma for the adorable shirt.
I love it!!

Alligator Farm with Mom and Dad

When Mom and Dad were visiting, dad really wanted to ride an airboat in the Everglades. Which, by the way, dad took some of the most amazing photos while on the airboat. So here is their little journey into the everglades:

Mom and dad wanted to make sure they were on the back of the boat so they wouldn't get wet. I guess our stories about riding in the front made that a wise decision.


And they're off!!
(Aren't they cute?!)


If they only knew what was waiting for them around the corner... alligators, and a lot of them.
(Ask dad about his experience at the alligator Farm. I guess the alligators gave dad the creeps, big time!)

They made it back in ONE piece.
Dad...you should post some of the amazing pictures you took that night.

Mr. & Mrs. Clause


Mr. and Mrs. Clause paid a visit to Disney World while we were there. Savea and Sayla had the chance to sit on their laps and talk to them. Priceless!!
