Lots of Christmas

Christmas was extra special this year.  It was our first Christmas as a family of four in our new home.  We had so much fun hosting both the Millers and the Nelsons over the weekend and through Christmas.  Although Jackson and Harper are too young to understand Christmas they did understand that Christmas brought lots of family and new toys.  They were in heaven!!!  Tyler and I felt truly blessed this holiday season!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
Now that Christmas is over we are focusing on Jackson and Harper's 1st birthday party aka mine and Tyler's first year survival party.

Christmas Zoo Trip

This Christmas season we are starting our own Christmas traditions and also carrying on traditions that Tyler and I enjoyed growing up.  The Nelson family always went to the Brookfield Zoo in Chicago right before Christmas.  So with a snow storm on its way we decided to enjoy the somewhat nice weather and continue the Christmas tradition by going to the OKC zoo.  This was the twins first zoo visit and they loved it, Jackson especially loved the sea lions!  They also loved having all their grandparents in town to join them on the adventure.

Sunday Funday

J&H make tons of fun crafts and art at school so it was time we did a little crafting at home.  This morning we made hand print and foot print ornaments. 

 
 
Jackson was trying to hold in his excitement for crafting :)
 
 
 
After crafting J&H broke into the tupperware cabinet . . .
 
 
 
And we ended the day with a play date at the park with the twins future best friend Maddie!
