Chillin' with Big Red

Great Grandma Hummer has the Santa hook-up!... As always Mr. Claus himself made an appearance Christmas Eve at the family party. 

The wee people were thrilled!

Potty Training:Does the Fun Ever End?

Oh my! Now, here is a technique you don’t see often.

Gingerbread House Party....

What a deliciously, fun party!

RAWR...

RAWR...means "I love you" in wild thing!

Max is finally properly outfitted for making mischief of one kind and another.

Let the wild rumpus start!

And now for a little theme song video...

Xavier told us he thought the hand motions were silly so he opted not to do them. Too funny...He is so much like his daddy!

The Big Chill, X's Kindergarten Musical

Little Mr. Big Stuff all ready for his show!
A little video of X's big line...That's right, "Looks like there is going to be snow and ice for an entire week!"


Max found the performance completely engaging...obviously!

Pile of Kiddos and a Few Pictures from Thanksgiving

Here's the pile of kiddos...

The boys playing a friendly, game of football.

Max in his T-Day attire...Grandma made them choose a side when crafting their headwear. Umm...not surprised this wild child chose an Indian!

1 little, 2 little, 3 little Indians....4 little, 5 little...

Our little turkey baby on his first birthday...getting ready to play party games!

The Divine Miss Em ready to dominate in Pin the Party Hat on the Turkey. She was a good sport considering she had requested the party game to be Tag the Baby.

On a side note: Emma chose her lovely party dress from Aunt Hannah's ballerina dress up box. I am not sure I ever saw Em in her own clothes the entire trip.

Time for Turkey Cake...

...and presents.

Later...

The kiddies decorated a gingerbread house.

Max's candy in the tummy to candy on the house ratio...4:1

Oh and last but not least...The Family Picture.

Happy Thanksgiving, my firends!

Turkey Day Warm-Up!

I got to join X's class for a Thanksgiving feast, kindergarten style. That's right...a delicious meal touched by many little hands! So fun and don't you just love those adorable little hats?!
