Getting ready for Santa

We are getting ready for Santa. So excited that this year Max is getting into it. He has learned about baby Jesus' birthday at school. He understands that Christmas is an event that is coming and he is really excited about presents. He loves all the Christmas lights and wants look at them when the sun goes down, so if we are out we drive around. 
 Just a cute one of the kids playing out front.
We really enjoyed a weekend in College Station. We got together with Justin, Lisa and Isabel. We went to the mall and took pictures with Santa. Max asked Santa for Cars and a cookie. He did great with Santa this year, but Maddie was terrified. Glad we captured that memory anyway though, hopefully next year she'll love it. We walked around the mall and even rode the train. Max loved it, and kept yelling choo-choo and random people, fun! We had a great day playing with Isabel then we went to their cousin Anabelle's 2nd birthday party. Of course the kids fell asleep on the way there and Max was a wreck when I woke him up. He had meltdown after meltdown at the party, which was AMAZING(note sarcasm). Momma needed an adult beverage after that!!! Thankfully Lisa and Isabel helped me out with Maddie who did surprisingly well. So we left early and headed home and got the kids to bed. :)
