Fa la la la LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Sorry I haven't posted in such a long time and this one will have to be quick. Funny how I started planning in November thinking that I had plenty of time but yet again it seems I have more things to do now than time.

Aidan made it through his first ever Christmas concert which lasted a whole 5 minutes, it's funny to see like 200 parents all cramed in to see their kids sing a 1 minute song....so worth it though I know Judd and I were both forcing back tears of pride thats for sure!

We are enjoying all the visiting and although we thought our Christmas was going to be fairly laid back this year it seems to actually be the busiest yet! We love seeing everyone though and we are really having fun this year!

Kneesaa and Ichabod are into everything Christmas....Ichabod has managed to wreck every bow on every present under the tree and Kneesaa has had her fill of chocolate that she keeps stealing including all but 3 days of Aidan's advent calender so they are having lots of fun.

Anyways I will leave you all with some pics (not very good...sorry) and I will definately do a big post after Christmas with lots of pictures.....

So for any of you we may not see....have a great holiday and may Christmas bring you all peace and full hearts no matter how it finds you!

Love Judd, Sarah, Aidan, Kneesaa & Ichabod


PS - Aidan is the one in the red sweater....4th in from the right in one pic and 5th in on another....also the one of Judd is because he was crying at Aidan's concert...what a proud papa he is...awwww!

On Your Marks...Get Set...CHRISTMAS!

Hope everyone is enjoying all the wonderful snow we've had this week...It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! I've been trying to get as much shopping as I can done for all the little ones on my list after work as I usually get off between 1 and 3. I've had a bit of success but find that the lines are long no matter when you go!

Judd, Aidan and I decorated the house last night and had a really great time. Aidan usually doesn't want to participate for very long but he sure was in the spirit yesterday! He put on his Santa hat and was raring to go all evening, helping with the tree, taking pictures and having some Christmas chocolates. As you can imagine Kneesaa and Ichabod are enthrawled with the new decor as well and numerous things have already been knocked off the tree...it's a good thing they are so cute, otherwise I think we'd have cat and dog snowmen on our front lawn.

Aidan is getting psyched up for the Chritmas concert th
e day care is putting on. His group is singing "Rockin Around the Christmas Tree" and he has been practising every day...he's almost got the whole thing down! They have limited space so only Judd and I can go but we will be sure and video tape it for anyone who wanted to go. Aidan is also eagerly anticipating Christmas this year and is doing lots of planning. He already went to see Santa after practising what he was going to say over and over...I think he enjoyed the experience but was a little nervous. He keeps asking how many more days until Christmas and walks around the house saying "I love you" to everyone and telling us thank you for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I think when Santa told him he would get presents if he was a good boy he really took it to heart. Hopefully it lasts past Christmas!

Anyways here is some pics of our beginning of Christmas and the infamous picture of Aidan's 2006 visit to Santa! Hope you are all enjoying the holiday season!

Love Judd, Sarah, Aidan, Kneesaa and Ichabod
