Santa's Breakfast
We had a very busy weekend. On Saturday Ethan got invited to Maggie's third birthday party at bouncetown. The kids had a blast and were exhausted after all of the bouncing, myself included. After Maggie opened her presents she gave each of the kids a gingerbread train which Ethan could not wait to make! After his nap Eric, Ethan and I made the train, I think Ethan might have eaten more candy then put on but he thought it was really neat! On Sunday we went to the annual Santa's breakfast at my dad's country club. When we asked Ethan if he was going to sit on Santa's lap he said no, maybe tomorrow. So we decided to see how it would go, after we had a wonderful breakfast/lunch we stood in line to see Santa. Ethan was really excited but, very nervous. I think that it helped that Maya was sitting on his lap. Finally, Ethan went to stand by him and told him that he wanted race cars, dinosaurs, and animals for christmas. He also added that Maya wanted clothes. Maya was awe struck by Santa claus as you can see from the pictures.

Decorating Gingerbread Houses
On Wednesday night Eric, Ethan and I met up with Erika and Papa at Cress Creek to make Gingerbread houses. Maya got to stay home with Grandma. First we had dinner which consisted of finger foods for the kids and fish for the adults, I preferred the kids menu! After dinner we started to decorate the houses. Ethan probably ate as much candy as he put on the house. When we were done he couldn't wait to go home and suprise Grandma with it!
Happy Thanksgiving
This year Thanksgiving was at our house. My family came over in the mid morning for appetizers and then we had the traditional dinner later on. Everything tasted great even the turkey wasn't too bad, except for having to make it. Following the dinner we had a couple rounds of Wii which Ethan loved. Maya had a wonderful first Thanksgiving.
