We have been super busy this Christmas season, but we have been having lots of fun along the way! Here is our "Christmas room". I have a love/hate relationship with this tree. It was given to us when we lived in Scottsdale and it is so beautiful...but humongous! You kinda have to set aside a whole room for it. It has been fun to have a room for the tree, stockings and Christmas toys/books though.
Elliot did the outside lights. He did an awesome job.
Lindsey loves her Christmas toys. She likes to put a goat in with the reindeer. I guess she figures everyone should have a goat, especially Santa. She also likes to rename the reindeer after her friends too. According to Linds, their names are Brindley, Coco, Courtney, Mako, Kelly Kate, Gracie, Mrs. Madsen and Cora.
The past couple days, Lindsey has let the goat hitch a ride in the sleigh with baby Jesus and Mary though.
We made gingerbread houses!
Pretty nice huh.
We had a fun night with Blake and Clayton. I styled their hair like Christmas elves hair. Then we had Christmas pizza and watched The Polar Express.
Ashley got what she wanted for Christmas...her two front teeth! She sprouted two bottom teeth within a day of each other last week.
I feel like she has gotten so big so fast. She is crawling all over the place and she is fast! She can pull herself up on furniture and stand too. At this rate, she'll be walking before I know it. Ahhhhhh!
Lindsey figured out she can ride Thor. Who needs to ask Santa for a horse when you have a sweet, patient golden retriever?
We had a white elephant Christmas party with Elliot's college roommates and their families. This is a really fun group of weirdos.
Linds and her pal Turner
The girls with all our little babies. I think Natalie's little red head is the cutest.
The boys with all the kids.
Elliot is such a cute Daddy. His girls LOVE him!
This was my white elephant winnings...a pink feather boa, a "An Evening with Donny Osmond" shirt and a couple romance novels. Yes please!
Elliot won this amazing portrait enhanced and autographed by Brady.
I think it looks like eerily similar to what Elliot looked like as a child. We will hang it up somewhere in our house and say it's him. Here's a pic of Elliot as a kid to compare it to. (Isn't Elliot adorable? I am going to have such cute boys one day!)

I feel very honored to be a part of the raindeer pack! Thanks Linds! Oh my boys wish they could join in that bath tub, too.
