Christmas Activties

This time of the year is always so busy - fun busy - but busy! Yesterday was my sweet hubby's birthday and we went to see the new Mission Impossible movie and had a nice dinner out. Just the two of us. It was a nice break from all of the children related activities that have been going on lately.
We recently enjoyed a visit to the Nashville Children's theater, which I highly recommend. We saw Junie B. Jone Jingle Bells Batman Smells! Check out their upcoming shows here. I am so going to see Click, Clack, Moo!

Lauren got to take her friend, Kara, and they had the best time! There was even an autograph session after the play. Lauren got her book signed by all of the characters. Here she is with her favorite, Junie B. Jones!

Snacks with Santa was at our church last Sunday night. It is always so much fun! Carter LOVES babies. He can't wait to get his hands on any baby around. This is sweet little Lorien Doak, who is two and a half weeks old. Awwwww!

Lauren has been so sick with an ear infection. She's better but not back to full strength. She was absolutely worn out when we got home. Even though she is so happy in this picture working hard on her letter to Santa, she still looks a little pale and thin to me. I am just thankful that we have this break to rest and enjoy being with each other!
